A tall ship's sailing down a narrow channel. It has fair winds and most
of its sails up.
It's in international waters. It has a black cylinder displayed which
means it's C.B.D.
A Coast Guard inflatable pulls up along side. It hails the captain of the
tall ship and tells
him he's breaking the rules because sailboats can't show the black
cylinder. The captain
smirks and says he's using the motor too. The Coast Guard writes him a
ticket because he's
in violation of another rule. What other rule did he violate.

Mooning the coasties?
