It is kind of sad to see a large group of folks touching and allowing their gear to impact upon the corals all the while saying we must preserve the reefs. Do any research and you will see that both repeated repeated touching or heavy touching as well as gear impact will kill coral. Practice proper buoyancy control and avoid contact with the corals help them to sustain a healthy life. Have fun, take pictures, leave no impact. Cheers.
