...fathometer readings can be inaccurate...The operative word here is "can". The author doesn't say the soundings will always be accurate or that they will never be inaccurate. I don't know what kind of fathometer sunmarines have, but I know that I am doubtful of the ability of my fathometer to consistantly track at 30 kts with a water depth of 1000 fathoms. -USN surface navigator
