What is a sail?
The navigatorİ wrote:
OED: 1. a. One of the shaped pieces of canvas ...... While it's laughable to use the Oxford English Dictionary to reach for conclusions in maritime law, I agree with Navvieİ here. A kitesurfer is covered by the ColRegs as a sailing vessel, as is a windsurfer, as is a dugout canoe with a big leafy branch sticking up. Why all the disagreement? Seems pretty obvious. I never thought straining at gnats after swallowing a camel would be such a popular pastime. Fresh Breezes- Doug King |
