[QUOTE="Marguerite, post: 357422, member: 1991"] I'm so sorry, Beth. Where we live, there are some very hazardous fishing places. One place now has a length of chain bolted into the rock so if a fisherman goes over the edge he has something to grab onto, before being swept away. It was put there after one local fisherman was swept away. He had been fishing with a buddy who reported back on the events. A chain ladder would have possibly saved the guy. I went to his memorial - held on the nearby beach. I was pregnant with difficult child 3 at the time. His family threw wreaths into the water on the beach. Then the surf patrol who had been so diligent searching for his body, swooped in, scooped up one large wreath, and took off around the point to drop the wreath where the guy had last been seen. It was a lovely gesture from them. I think there must be a special heaven for fisherman lost at sea... Marg [/QUOTE]
