Well, I think we've beaten this one to death.

But do me a favor, ask your buds about this one. I think you might
find that there are some the agree with my original point about rule
18. I could be convinced that your point about the definition of NUC
is valid, at least as it applies to larger vessels, but I'm still not
convinced it true for smaller boats.


Sorry Jeff.....I have and they don't. It doesn't mean you don't have some
valid points and I fdirmly believed that the Rules were/are mainly
written for deepdraft types and their situations which frequently leaves
the smaller ones going....Huh? How does this apply to me?


And will my point about anchoring seems silly, is it really? I mean,
a reasonable definition of Maneuvering is altering speed and/or course.


Mayhaps true but goes waaaaay beyond the norm.
At any rate, interesting discussion.
