Making Sound Choices
Pay Attention When Listening to the Music of Your Boat.
Anyone familiar with music knows “Good Vibrations,” a tune from the legendary Beach Boys, which aptly described the nascent feelings of a young generation on the move. But the bewildering vibrations your boat can develop following an accidental grounding or collision with a submerged object are nothing to sing about. Things happen out on the water. You miss a buoy, or enter a strange channel on full-moon low tide and suddenly there is a swath of mud or sand in your wake. If you stop in time and scour your way to deeper water you’re lucky. But whenever your props hit real estate or solid debris, the story can have a different and usually more expensive ending.
