USCG VTS & the CFR
Joe wrote: Capt. JG wrote: "Joe" wrote in message ups.com... From your CFR that any Captain should have aboard his vessel So, what's your problem? My boat is 30 feet bow to stern. It's not about your boat, it's about a commerical boat entering commerical shipping lanes and not contacting traffic. You stated the clown had no ideal you were there, and he had to back down to prevent a possiable collision. I never said you have to check in, but the tug does have to check in. Had you checked into traffic and asked about any concerned traffic then the whole situation could have been ignored. Hey you can get ****ed off as you want to, I'm just trying to provide information that will help the next time, or help some lurker here. I'm WHATS YOURE PROBLEM ASS HOLE? NEXT DUAH YAH WANT ME TO WIPE IT -LOL-NEXT - WHAT U GOT TO PROVE HERE? PLEASE- GIVE ME THE ANSWER TO THAT - MAKE MY DAY , MY LIFE -MY ME TO BE- TELL ME MORE MOTHER **** a big fan of VTS and know how it can prevent trips anc close calls like you described. It must be embarrasing for you when you realize that everyone can tell you don't comprehend what you read. No what is embarrasing is a licenced Captain getting in a bind in a commerical traffic lane, and calling boat parts what ever he fancy's to call them. Had you acted like a proffesional mariner and contacted VTS then all would have been aware of your intentions, and you would not have been suprised. Thanks for the link by the way, but I already had it. Well the CFR says any tug over 26 ft has to check in with traffic...same at VTS. It does not matter weather he is working or not. You seemed not to be clear on this point. Joe -- "j" ganz @@ www.sailnow.com |
