[Boatanchors] Base for tower

[Al Parker]

Gene,
    Not necessarily.  They probably put out a "generic" example of what
could be done, but they don't know just what your soil condition is, or
that of anyone else.  They probably have a disclaimer to that effect on
what they do suggest.   In particular, they don't know what you plan to
hang on top of the tower.  Sandy soil and hurricane winds aren't a good
combination, particularly when the heavy rains have loosened things up.
73,
Al, W8UT
