not real likely I'll notice, or that they'll survive the experience.
The funny bit is, he doesn't have a clue what sort of vessel I spend my
working life on.

Didn't last long, did he? One lousy x-post to asa and he's outa here.

Jeeze, Peter, the point is to keep him thrashing, not to chase him away!

Well, since you have already proved you are unknowing in the rules of road,
regards sailboats, I am going to ignore you from now on. And when you get
in an accident with your ideas of right of way, and I see a report, I will
just have them google up your idiocy.

Ah, I get it Peter... he's just a troll. Not too bright either.

Sorry about that, I couldn't resist the temptation. He only *thought*
he was getting a hard time in rec.boats.cruising.....

Anyway, I think there wasn't much flapping left in him by now. Sorta
like a mullet after it's been hit with the club. All flat forehead,
bulging eyes and slime......

Well, we did establish why people own jet skis.

They're too poor to own a real powerboat, and they're too unskilled to
own a sailboat.

I often monitor channel 13 along with 16. I hear incoming ships
requesting pilot service, and permission to enter and use the anchorage.
And sometimes I hear tugs and ferries advising each other. However, I've
never heard the tour boats or booze cruises reporting a position, not
have I been able to find any traffic management authority for Boston that
would track such movements, nor any requirement in the Coast Pilot.
Boston doesn't have a VTS system like NY, SF or LA. Am I missing
something?



Don't know that Boston has the traffic to warrant a VTS, but it's
possible.
Check channels 12 and 14, as these are two that are frequently used for
this service.
Something which may have given you an earlier warning would be AIS, but
quite possibly the various ferries do not have it.

SF bay area is 13 v-to-v communication, 14 for monitoring.

Planet Earth. And I am not a sailboater, so know I do not have the
"right of way" over large ships.

Mebbe, mebbe not.

Who has "right of way"?

We call it the "law of Tonnage". If he has enough, he's got the right
away.
