40 MPH...Straight into The Witches!

If it was a Duncan Press chart it sounds like it flew off a Anchor Marine rental. Bob circles and X's the Witches on his charts and I've watched him emphasising over and over to renters about that area.

A few years ago a co-worker took his kids to the Lake with his sons. He rented a boat from Anchor Marine and within 15 minutes hit the rocks between Big and Little Island in Paugus Bay causing $1500 damage to the outdrive. Since he was never on the Lake I really grilled him in advance about the rocks and the absolute necessity of using the chart and being sure he knew exactly where he was. Apparently the lure of that open water made him forget my advice.
