JLC - Don't be so hard on the guy. I suspect that his issue is with the fog banks that occasionally roll in and - let's face it - can be pretty scary. If you have radar and know how to use it, it's less of an issue. There certainly has been plenty written, on this board and others, about running in fog in Block Island Sound (and elsewhere) that would put anyone off the idea.
All the best,
