more ROW questions....
G Keep studying "Ellen MacArthur" wrote in reenews.net: "otnmbrd" wrote | Possibly....if he cannot deviate from his course/speed up/slow down I've been studying the Colregs. I know something about them. Your wrong because what you say isn't complete. The Rules say it's RAM because of what you say above. But it's got to be because of the work it's doing. Towing a fellow power boater who broke down or ran out of gas isn't part of the definition of work. Work's got to do with laying pipes, dredging, towing if your licensed to do it, repairing buoys etc. Look at it this way. What if I decided to do a little dredging. I put something that dredges in the back of my little recreational runabout. I stop somewhere and start dredging. Am I a RAM? No. I'm a law breaker. The work's not legal so I'm not really working. It's not too hard to figure out..... Cheers, Ellen |
