On serious bilge pumping........

Here in Casco Bay there are many places where the general rules you would rely on would be at odds with the "Returning" concept. A committee could spend days without coming to a clear conclusion about which side red should be on depending on whether they are thinking from the mindset of big ships that use only the major channels, yachts that use pleasure boat anchorages, etc. By relying on buoy layout alone, do you want to bet your boat that you will come always to the same conclusion as the long ago guy who laid out the buoy system when it could have been a coin toss in some situations? Maybe it's different where you sail but, in many parts of Maine, the buoys are primarily markers to help you locate yourself on the chart. Even if you can figure out which side red is supposed to be on, just keeping the right color on the proper side will WHAM! Well said. |
