I disagree. as good as it sounds, the "point" set up on a feeder beach made of sand would only last through a few major storms before it begins to reach an equalibrium with the surrounding area and the "point" is gone. Given that maintentance dredging is usually on a 3-5 year interval, the feeder beach set up will be absent most of the time. Still its great that they are willing to try it and hopefully im wrong.Quote:

Look at the difference between the OCMD breaks (medium fine borrow material gets surfable a few months after pumping) and Bethany/Dewey/Rehoboth (coarse grain sand that completely ruined the break). Plus the harsh shore pound created by the steep beachface with coarse grain sand is hazardous, so surfers have some allies in fighting that crap.
anyone know from what beach to what beach they're pumping. Theres also a pretty easy way to stop. Blow up the machines!!! Haha
Thanks there SpongeBob....keep riding in your c__k.:D
