I responded with the picture in my mind, from earlier this week.... of
a largish cuddy cabin boat (manufacturer deleted to prevent flame
wars) hard aground. I'll never forget the looks on the two guys' faces
as they surveyed both their plight and how other boaters seemed to be
violating the rule.

I'm sure, these guys were navigating using the red-right-return
system. Navigation, sans chart, using this system, where primary and
secondary channels are concerned, almost guarantees this result. Grady-White Gulfstream, out of Oak Island, NC.
