Ok, question for the few Saipanese divers here. Was that an anchor furrow I saw last month at Ice Cream? I saw a 6 meter long furrow, almost one meter across, of broken coral on the NE shoulder of the formation. It looked quite fresh, and suspiciously like someone dragged an anchor along the "hill." Have you guys ridden the boat captain off the island on a rail yet? Tarred and feathered him? Burned him in effigy? Followed him around the island, pointing, saying "coral killer," and "sphinctoral aperature?" God I hope so. Am I wrong? Was it not an anchor? What happened there? Definitely more than an errant fin kick! I'm going back in June, so I'll take some photos and post them here. I'd love a name to attach to the photos :wink:
