Personally, I've never seen significant kelp holdfast damage
by boats and traps. That doesn't mean it doesn't happena and
I do think you would have been in a good position to see it.
I have seen canopy damage done by anchors. Also, damage by
boat anchor has generally never been cited as a factor in the
kelp studies I know of... unless the Monterey report mentions
it.
I'd like to see comments on what others on the board have seen
of this.
Enjoy, seahunt
