I'm surprised, yet not surprised, at the lack of response to this "test".
The answer can not be given without a great deal of clarification and I
note that Neal and Donal tried without asking those questions.

Otn,
The master of a vessel often have to make quick decisions without having all
the information that he would like.

I gave an answer based on the evidence that Jeff provided. You didn't give
an answer. You were incapable of reaching a conclusion.


It seems that you are the sort of person who would dither and procrastinate
when presented with a difficult situation. I suspect that in real life, you
would be more decisive - so why don't you answer Jeff's question? It was an
excellent question, that promotes real sailing discussion. If we all
adopted your attitude, then we couldn't have any sailing discussion at all.



Regards


Donal
