Warnings
There is potentially dangerous situation at the beach/pier in stepping off the floats into the mud at low tide. The sand at the water's edge may be more like "quick sand" and there is a danger of sinking deep in the muck. Please be extremely careful at low tide and avoid the sand/muck at the water's edge if at all possible. We would advise (1) all boaters to be especially mindful of this situation and (2) for parents to remind all children of this potential danger.
