Navigational Aids

There is currently a lightship on the end of the sands, on the farthest part out, to warn ships.

The southern lighthouse is now owned by the National Trust, and the northern one is still in operation.

Famous quotes containing the word aids:

    “The moral immune system of this country has been weakened and attacked, and the AIDS virus is the perfect metaphor for it. The malignant neglect of the last twelve years has led to breakdown of our country’s immune system, environmentally, culturally, politically, spiritually and physically.”
    —Barbra Streisand (b. 1942)
