As near as I can figure, according to the Colregs, there is no such
thing as blameless in a collision. A drunk ran down a guy, here in
Iowa, from behind. The victim wasn't keeping a lookout. Happened at
night. Boat went right over the top of the victims boat, and the drive
unit hit the helmsman and killed him. The drunk went to prison.
Then there was the time the local cops hit an anchored boat, at night,
close to shore, at high speed. They killed a guy. Cops tried to claim
that the anchored boat wasn't showing the proper lights. That BS
didn't sell.

Take the psychobabble and put it where the sun doesn't shine buddy.
This is a sailing forum, not some wet nurse looney bin.

Amen.

There is no such thing as blameless, unless you're at anchor in a designated
anchorage and you have six nuns (all sober) on your boat as witnesses.

as well.

What about illegal hallucinogenic drugs? I'm assuming that you approve of
them?

I take that as a "Yes"? So you do approve of illegal hallucinogenic drugs
for licensed captains?

Where did that come from? Nowhere in this discussion has anyone
expressed approval of doing any mood altering substance. Even legal
ones. Mentioning that a drunk went to prison for killing someone is
expressing approval of exactly what?

Old Ganzey's kind of touchy on the subject of illegal hallucinogenic drugs.
He used them and posted on usenet all about it. Then he lied on his
application to the Coast Guard when he took the Captain's test. He still
has flashbacks, as you can see from some of his posts.
