My slip is on the fuel dock.

Ah ha! The fumes are to blame!

I find the momentary disoreintation in a new place to be most
annoying. I try to stay sharp by practising in more familiar environments.
Also, it fun
to be looking for new things in a harbor I've sailed in for 25 years.

Good christ.

You're right. You, Ganz and Neal may targets of yourselves that even Ozzy can't
resist poking at you!

I've never gone through without at least a few little chats. And if nothing else, its
nice to know what's going to happen in a few minutes.

Are you telling us that you made the run through Hellgate without
monitoring 9, 13, and 16? Are you telling us that you made no
securite call at the throgs neck, brothers, or the gate, announcing
your vessel, route and destination? Are you telling us you were not in
communication with the large commercial traffic with whom you were
sharing the water.? If so,you are reckless, but not alone. When I
hail a tug driver and discuss intentions, I actually get thanked for
getting on the radio.

And the radio! Did you really mean to say that went through the busiest harbor

Yup!!! No need to monitor the radio 24/7 either. Few boats do.

RB

You should, assuming you sail in anything other than a totally benign environment. This
doesn't plotting courses and working running fixes, but it should mean having a fair guess
of your compass course.

BTW, How many people here have done a running fix in the last year? In their life? Know
what it is?

practice in daylight, how do you know how to do it in the haze?


Sure but practice every time?

According to Neal and Ganz you should ALWAYS be piloting!

That Bridge Jon, is the bridge that put the "Golden Gate" in second

It doesn't look like the Mackinac Bridge.
