Is there really any separation between the two? I don't think there is
one without the other.



Have you ever been sailing along day dreaming...?

I tell you after years on a triple srew and quad screwed boats you have
so much to do you better be able to do it without thinking about it.
Most that I have seen that really fail at boat handling are the ones
that have to take the time to think about everything they are doing. In
other words they can not keep up, much less think ahead of the boat.

That's also IMO the difference of a Master and a Captain.
