Default The ignorance of the so-called professional captains is astounding.

Aliens are not defined by the COLREGS like motor vessels
and sail boats are. Your question is non sequitur.

Under the COLREGS, vessels are identified by lights and
shapes. A vessel showing three red lights in vertical row, for
example identifies itself as a CBD. A vessel showing a
red/white/red in a row one atop the other is a RAM and
so on.

In the same manner, an aux/sailboat showing a steaming light
by night and a cone by day identifies itself as a motorboat. It
matters not if the sails are providing the propulsion. As long as
there is machinery operating it's legally a motorboat according
to the Rules.

Why is this simple fact so hard for you knuckle heads to grasp?

The cone makes you a motor boat.


If I wear a fake alien mask, does that make me an alien?
