I can also argue that sending an inexperienced captain on a boat with a chart plotter is an accident waiting to happen.

I have seen boats sail directly into the Colquhoun Reef, the reef off of Marina Cay as well as the reef at White Bay. In all cases, their main navigational input was from the chart plotter.

As GeorgeC1 pointed out, there are numerous areas where what is shown on the chart plotter and reality differ.
