Default I feel sorry for the people who bought radar for their cruising boats.


I'l give you one thing, Willie..... at least you try to keep the arguments
boating related............but...duh....you sure do come up with some dumb
arguments.

Duh, if you can't see where you're going then slow down or heave-to
until visibility improves. Motoring around at high speeds relying solely
on radar causes more collisions than it avoids. I'm talking recreational
vessels, now, not commercial vessels that have to maintain some sort of
reliable schedule. There is no reason for a cruising boat to be
operating in no-visibility conditions in congested areas.
