Just a reminder..
 
Remember to check your plotted route in close-up zoom before going into high TC, especially if your operating out of Jakarta... I plotted a course through the Sunda-strait, without spotting the tiny island in the middle of it...:nope::damn:
Running at high TC near shore (sh3commander tweak) i didnt realize it was there before i smacked right into it, and sank my boat. This warning goes for all of the area between Australia and up to the south-china sea: Watch out for those small islands!!!:damn::damn:
BTW: GWX ROCKS!!

Don't worry Seth, your not the first to run aground in Australian waters (captain Cook had that honour!) I remember a Cargo ship that was traveling thought the great barrier reef manaaged to run into a reef, despite all the navagation gear they had on board. It turned out the was booze on the bridge as well! That doesn't help navigation at all!!!

Right on, Bookworm! Treacherous waters, for sure, mate! My uboat crew aint boozed up, but Bernard is onboard.... He does more damage than all the booze in the Kriegsmarine...!

A well lubricated navigator is not much help in a coral sea!

The Australians can't afford mine fields and thus tow uncharted islands into your path instead. Beware.

We have to get by with what we have. The Brits and the Yanks have all the money and us poor broke aussies have to use whatever we've got to stop the invading hordes!:rotfl:

Awe man, I did that just north of England. This tiny pin ***** of an island. Cruising along and bang...my watch crew was sprawled all over the beach. My boat was bent in the middle and the damn airbags did not deploy:nope:
