This would be a good time to re-read Rule Five. One thing you will note is
there does not exist any requirement for visual (Mk I Eyeball or Mk I Mod 2
(eyeglasses, binoculars etc.) vision 360 degrees 24/7.


"at all times maintain a proper look-out by sight and hearing" would seem to
cover 24/7 eyeball. Certainly nothing says 360 degrees. As I've said, courts
have had a lot to say about the meaning of "proper," including saying that "no
lookout" is proper in some cases.

And I'll go with the sub, also. But what about a lightship?

I would say that a lightship is inconsistent with "On this craft we move at
20-30 knots most of the time." - don't lightships spend most of their time
not moving?

oh, yea, I missed that. I keep looking for a question for which lightships are
the answer, but it never quite works.
