Silly Booby, if you can see 11 do you really think I can't see 5?

I'm sorry, but you started the thread, so it's up to you to make good on your
claim. I actually gave you one via course in another thread...and that's main
one, which you could have only guess at without my input.
You're welcome!

Let's take turns then. You first.

I already went first, giving the specific course error, which you could not
have done.
Your turn!

Sigh. That was wrong booby, you were luffing. Next?

Nope. And the wave pattern clearly shows you're wrong. Even I'd be able to
deduce that.
So much for your "sailing knowledge."

The wake is to the right in the picture which means you are turning to
PORT and luffing. You lose AGAIN. What's really sad is that you were
there and still got it wrong!

Nope. You don't even know what a wake is...and you proved it. The track aft
means nothing since the course change was just initiated for the pic. The wave
off her hull to starboard shows this.
Maybe it's a rogue wave!!! Bwahahahaha!

Oh man, it's a seal clubing!

Do you want to bet your wake is to starboard? Here's a hint. The wake
from a sailing vessel at _low_ speed can be seen as a line of flatter
water demarked by parallel lines of disturbed water (sometimes with a
little foam), separated by a distance about equal to her waterline beam.
Look at the picture again. Now do you see it? It's just as I said, she's
turned to PORT. If you want more proof you'll have to pay me for my
expert knowlege!

Bwhahahhahahahahahah

This is exactly why the photo can't tell you what's happening. The course
change was initiated moments before the pic, so the sun would be abeam of us.
The wake behind us doesn't tell the whole story. I actually explained this from
the get-go and you still couldn't sum up the evidence correctly!
