Default Basic Safety Gear-You can't do better!

That's my "The Rum bottle is empty again!" stare.... I'm not angry... I'm
****ed off!

Jon is so Gay.... he doesn't understand any manly behaviour.

Thank the gods I have him KF'd so I don't have to read his whiny, screechy
little girly rebuttals... which are basically devoid of humour, wit and
intellect.

But he does appear to be quite angry, doesn't he?

Fortunately for Mooron since he has me in his killfile, he

thinks he's not
looking like an idiot right about now. :-)

a) A vessel at anchor shall exhibit where it can best

be
seen:

(i) in the fore part, an all-round white light or

one
ball;



(e) A vessel of less than 7 meters in length, when at

anchor
not in or near a narrow channel, fairway or where other
vessels normally navigate, shall not be required to

exhibit
the shape prescribed in paragraphs (a) and (b) of this

Rule.

Isn't that related to size of vessel? I can't remember

and
it's late here.

Technically you should show an anchor ball, right?

If the holding is good and you're only going to be
there a
short time, and
it's during the day, you don't need an anchor

light,
and
you don't need to
keep a watch. Why two anchors? Is the bottom that

lousy
or
the wind/current
shifting that much? How did you deploy?

I wasn't thinking of using it at sea. What I had

in
mind
was anchoring
behind Red Fish Island, with two anchors, and

taking a
nap. I have one on
my Garmin chartplotter, but I think I need a

backup.

Jim


Any magellian GPS will work and show movement.

If you are on anchor or stopped at sea you need
someone
on watch. No if
and or butts about it.

Weather you are on anchor or tied to a rig

someone
needs to be awake
and on watch.

That doesn't

under pressure.


Indeed they do...not a job I'd wan't to deal

with.
Pays pretty good.
High burnout average and turnover. I bet it's

high
stress if you have

Top

IMO Rob should publish that best seller, or

direct
a

provide Suzy with a less stressfull life.
