Crossing the TSS to Oostende etc

It has much to commend it :D

In a similar vain - sailing in/out of Harwich/Felixstowe: the vast majority of yachts seem to stick rigorously to the 'recommended yacht track'. Regardless whether there is any commercial traffic or not.
What is the point? :confused: It's only a line on a chart.
If I'm not impeding commercial traffic, point of sail matters more to me that sticking to a recommended track.

What yacht track , ha ha , came out of Deben yesterday to Woodbridge haven bouy and aimed more or less at pye end and so were most of the others going our way ! , shortest distance and straight lines springs to mind :D
