[...] Pretty Cool site I just ran into this earlier today. It is a company called EarthNC. Their primary product is a software program that overlays baramythic charts over google earth. This site that I am copying is all of the artificial reefs in florida that are overlayed on google earth. (note: You will need google earth to view the artificial reefs since the file is a kmz). The baramythic charts can be bought (which I did) or viewed online for free. Thought it was pretty cool looking at how the reefs are grouped when they are deployed and could be beneficial in making a float plan. I went ahead and uploaded my numbers from the GPS to google earth and then ran this program and found several spots that I had not entered in that were right next to spots I currently had. I could see many uses out of this to make the trips more fuel effeicient by reducing run time inbetween areas. Also you could maximize the amount of time you are fishing. Hopefully this will help someone. http://earthnc.com/floridareefs [...]
