Warning Given
Boat Owners
Wilmington District Engin
eers Issue Warning To
Boatmen Who Anchor In
Intracoastal Waterway
Fishermen who anchor their
boats in the Atlantic Intracoastal
Waterway are advised that it is
a violation of the law and the
practice could result in serious
consequences.
The warning comes from the
Corps of Eingeers' District Of
fice following a complaint by a
commercial carrier who said that
the practice “is worse this year
than ever before.”
Col. H. C. Rowland, Jr., Dis
trict Engineer, said violations of
the law concerning both anchor
ing and speeding, too, had result
ed in damiging incidents to life

He pointed out that tugs with
■ barges are big and cumbersome
and can’t be stopped and maneu
vered like small boats. Regard
less of how careful pilots are, he
continued, anchoring in the wa
| terway and speeding on the chan
nel develops unavoidable situa
1 tions which otherwise could be
prevented.
The practice, according to the
complaint, appears to be most
prevalent between Morehead City
and Charleston, S. C.
Colonel Rowland said the law
is very specific and pointed out
applicable excerpts: “No boat, re
gardless of size, shall anchor in a
dredged channel or narrow por
tion of the waterway for the
purpose of fishing if navigation
is obstructed thereby.”
“Vessels shall proceed at a
speed which will not endanger
other vessels or structures, and
will not interfere with any work
in progress incident to maintain
ing, improving, surveying or
marking the channels.”
This regulation applies when
meeting and overtaking other
vessels and when passing through
drawbridges.
