Skunked on a Charter?

I've canceled all my charters for 2 weeks. Not worth it to me. New wheel is $1500. Shaft $1500. Some insurance companies won't pay if the Coast Guard has issued a warning of debris.

We made our way out at about 8 knots and picked a path through the debris. Water looked a lot better on the western side.
