Haven't heard anyone mention him for decades. Because of his advice I've always carried some polyproplyene line in the case of coral or foul bottoms. I just would not want to leave my boat for long on such a rode because I don't trust my splices with it and know how intolerant the line is to chafe. I have used it in BC in some cases for stern lines to shore when the tide change is great and the line could otherwise catch on rocks.
I agree with you....love this forum yet am a little disappointed that the activity has dropped since changing the website design (over two, three years ago??).
Regards,
Rick
