They have a different view on how the site should be organized and the comments on hazards are buried in the site. It took me over 10 minutes to find them myself. The best way to see the Active Captain comments now is to use one of the many iPad nav programs that show hazard icons superimposed on the chart for easy access. Just tap on the icon and the latest info comes up. One such app is AquaMap. The app is free and for $15, you get the he entire US. From within the app, you sign into Active Captain and the app downloads all Active Captain comments. Once the database is downloaded, you do not need an internet connection to see hazard comments.<br /><br />As far as Ponce de Leon is concerned, the best advice is to pass 50 ft off R18 and R18A for about 6 MLW. <br /><br />Here’s a direct link for Ponce de Leon by R18 and 18A<br />https://activecaptain.com/hazards/70477<br /><br />Bob423https://www.blogger.com/profile/09269810283567498286noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8849386655963437560.post-72732577294389451072018-02-16T12:33:51.548-05:002018-02-16T12:33:51.548-05:00Hello Captain Bob!

We registered at Active Captain, but u can't find any info there. Where should I look?<br />Natalia from Bella Vita.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
