More Solent pots

Be warned, 5 or 6 low viz (black 1 litre oil cans) pot markers only 20 metres or so from the west side of the Thorn Channel. These are located on the inside of the bend by the Clashot bouy extending to the red main channel bouys to each side. This is especially dangerous for boats avoiding shipping in the main channel. by staying outside travelling at night. They will have no chance of spotting them, let alone steering round them.

Yup .. saw them last night .. would not have been visible if any sort of sea was running. I wonder if the CG should lift & confiscate gear in dangerous places like these
.. when's that again, but ..
