This is no joke, apparently genetic wise the human race is not as small as it was years ago and the ride was constantly being held up by boats that were getting stuck in the channel. I could be totally wrong for POTC's reason, but then again maybe not. Just a suggestion.

    There is some mechanical work that really needs to be done. I've also been told that some AC needs replacing.
