From a fisherman's view it is CRAZY !!! the amount of seafloor damage will be great !!! People shit all over me when I spoke out against the St. Mary's fuel pier . Just look at it now !!! it is almost to the point of no repair . Every decision ever made enviromentaly in Jamaica is politically driven . What is this breakwater going to stop ? The shape of the bay it's self causes the water to go sideways along the shore ( Long Bay ). I'm sure Cap will agree with me on that . When you are passing land the points ( lighthouse pt ) (Rutland Pt) deceide how the water runs and it has NOTHING to do with breakwaters .Bad things like killing sharks and fishing to the point of no return helps kill the reef which is nature's way to protecting it's self . The sea is not wrong, it's the choice of building things in the wrong places that cause the illusion of beach erosion . The pic to 10,000 leagues under the sea shows Negril beach as pristine , which it was . If there were never hotels build there it would look exactly the same today . The sewage treatment plant that releases so much fecal matter into the sea does it no favours either . They can stick their heads up their asses as much as they want but A BREAKWATER OR DREDGING WILL NOT HELP !!!! It needs enviro control . Will that happen . NO !!!!!!
