The department, in a bulletin re-
Gently issued. admits that the most
certain way to locate a pinnacle rock
is to let a ship strike one. This effort,
however, is admittedly dangerous to
the passengers and extremely expen-
sive to the owners of the boat. particu-
larly If the rock is struck at night. In
the old days pinnacle rocks were not

The new wire-drag system is the
only system which will definitely and
certainly establish the danger or free

all dangerous rocks noted on govern

The chart is very often the means OF
fixing responsibility for q marine dis

in the navy. The captain. accused Of
negligence in the navigation of his yes

that the plea of uncharted rocks b.

The cost of wire-drag work, consid
ering the value of the results obtained
is not regarded as excessive. The cos
of dragging the New England coas
ranges anywhere from SIPS to $175 pei
