Default My seamanship question #1

Scotty wrote:

1. Bob could be sailing back to his slip while Mooron could
be just passing Stamford, but sailing much faster and on the
same heading. No situation, as Bob never sails more than a
mile from his slip and he'll be back , shackled in screening
a movie before Mooron even gets close.


Except that Suzy has taken the helm again and is intent on
ramming Mooron to plunder his beer supply.


2. I'm sailing 180* at 6.4 kts,15 miles behind me, Katy is
sailing 180* at 6.6 kts, she's catching me but there is no
situation to be worried about.


Katysails would never collide with anybody, that's far too
uncouth.... unless you made her mad.


3. Loco is 300 feet from the windward mark, Doug is 1/4 mile
behind but catching up. Loco is not worried about the
situation.


He'd be worried if he realized that my PHRF-penalty custom
torpedo-bulb keel is actually a real wire-guided torpedo.
