I do indeed take the "lookout" rule as an absolute.


Do you have a lookout posted now?

No.


Do you
have a lookout when you're anchored overnight, at on a mooring? In a

slip?

I certainly do not post a lookout when I'm in a slip.



Then you're ignoring the rule! They are unequivocal - "Every vessel shall at
all times maintain a proper look-out" - there is nothing that says, "except when
its not convenient."



Just my two cents, COLREGS, 'Regulations for the Avoidance of Collisions at Sea' (sic);
being in a slip is not "At Sea", Colregs do not apply IMHO
