Funnily enough my boss told me today that he is near the place for holidays since almost 30 years. he said whenever he rents a boat there, he had to sign a paper stating that he is not allowed closer to Giglio than 500m because of rocks under water close to the surface.

He insisted that he never rented a cruise ship, but plastic made boats with 10-12 hp outboard motors.

Not on the map? Please.....

BTW, I promised him if I`d ever hit a rock and the aircraft is in danger of sinking, that I would leave the wreck last. Also promised him never to fly very low around Giglio.

Canīt work out why he looked at me as if I wore a funny hat.
