The official crime:

MacArthur's journey began Nov. 28.
Since then, she has slept an average
of 30 minutes at a time and four hours
in any day.

In other words she did not comply with
the COLREGS where it states the following:

Rule 5
Look-out
Every vessel shall at all times maintain a proper
look-out by sight as well as by hearing as well
as by all available means appropriate in the
prevailing circumstances and conditions so as
to make a full appraisal of the situation and
of the risk of collision.


She should be arrested!

AFAIK the COLREGS only apply to American waters (correct me when I'm
wrong, but somehow I've a feeling I don't need to ask this g)

Cheers!
