ROFLMAO In other words, Jax, YOU don't know anything about RDF as used
on ships, and didn't, as per usual have a clue as to how it could be
used, or what I was talking about.


If you didn't trust the charts, why?,


oh, I dunno.

You got THAT right !!!!

snipped a bunch of nonsense


and why were you running that
close if this was the case?


because we could see the lights, and they appeared where we expected them too.
When one didn't appear as expected we became extremely watchful, and were ready
to turn around if it didn't appear very shortly. It appeared.

In other words, you could not trust your navigation skills ..... wise
choice. It's becoming more and more obvious that the only thing you are
experienced at is walking the floors and docks at boat shows, reading
boating magazines, and occasionally sailing as someone's crew.


Sounds like some bad decision making when
doing your route planning.



I didn't plan the route. The career merchant marine with a couple decades
offshore racing experience did. He was trying to skirt inside the Gulf Stream
so we didn't have to cross it and then recross it sometime later. If the light
hadn't appeared we were within a few seconds of turning around. so, what's the
problem?

Career merchant marine...... sure .... none of us believe that one.
Jax, the more of your post I read on this subject, the more I know you
don't have any experience or knowledge of the subject at hand. You were
along for the ride, and don't know what was going on or why.
