Default My seamanship question #1

Errr! I'm afraid I have egg on my face. Your right. It IS an overtaking situation.
I was wrong. I got the 22 and 1/2 angle mixed up. I was thinking it was from the
center line at the back of the boat. Instead it's from the sideways line.
Overtaking is required to change course.


Cheers,
