#11- Square waves are caused by intersecting winds from two directions. They're hazardous to boats because they roll them in unexpected directions but don't affect swimmers much or have anything to do with currents. They're a surface phenomenon.
#17 is just full of poop. e.g. If a line goes down near you and you're not already shocked or dead, walk away from the line. Take this from a lineman.
#23 - if you can see to get to the brake wiring, which is usually not accessible from the inside of the trunk, you can see to pull the yellow handle and open the lid.

Lightweight.
