Subject: RE: Recent Boating Accidents at Night

I fish the St. lawerance 1000 island after dark all the time and the great lake navionic chip is dead on. I feel completely comfortable running after dark there relying on the GPS. The other guy always is looking for other boats and lights are alway on. I also fish eagle, vermillon and other complex water and the map cards I have for them are not as accurate. Things that need to be remember unless you know the water well don't run 50 foot off shore where there maybe rocks. Second use the card in the day to see how accurate it is and not anything thats not accurate. There is a reef at eagle think it is called vikings reef that is a good .5 mile off in its location and it comes about a foot out of the water that would ruin a trip fast. just be careful and pay attention and if there is fog or it is snowing don't run I had a bass boat go b y me at Chautauqua in fog going full throttle that was uncalled for. good luck be safe.
