Avoiding Hazards At Sea
Now, that is just crap. It is the kind of binary, black and white, either
or, thinking that as at the heart of the intellectual rot that is destroying
this culture.
Try this,
Time at sea makes wiser and more experience sailors. Formal training and
other experience also do.
Some sailors get wiser and are better at turning their experience into sound
judgement than others. (Every standard deviation bell curve has two ends.)
No sailor will ever be wise and experienced enough for some of the the
conditions that may be encountered at sea.
