Last I checked, the rules don't mention "pecking order" either. That's a
bogus term made up by a bogus person.

You posted the "pecking order" on your web site, but you got it wrong! I
thought I'd give you a chance to redeem yourself. But I guess you still
don't get it.

And you "broad sweeps" comment is more of your nonsense. The rules are
very simple. The pecking order applies, except for when rule 9, 10, or 13
applies.

What's this about 'rights' anyway? The Rules don't mention rights.

The Rules do go into detail on the pecking order of vessels and who
should give way to home. (Stand-on vs. give-way).

If Bart had asked the sensible question of which of these vessels
is the stand-on vessel in a certain situation, it could be answered
broadly but without more specifics, one cannot make broad sweeps
with the brush and do anything other than make a fool out of one's self.

For example, normally a sailboat is the stand-on vessel in a meeting
situation with a motorboat. However, if the sailboat is passing the
motorboat then the motorboat becomes the stand-on vessel.

You lost one point because you could not goad me into making rash,
broad statements which would be wrong is some cases. I'm too
smart to fall for it.
