: The paper reports that it was the third time he had required assistance in 36 hours so I don't feel quite so bad about checking him out. If the USCG didn't notice something wrong the first two times, I probably wouldn't have been able to justify getting them involved just by making a close pass. CG screwed up. They should have confiscated his boat on the 2ND call and put him before a judge to have his competency tested by a shrink. Of course, we COULD have some SANE laws that says NOONE OVER 60 SAILS ALONE......which is fairly obvious, but we'd rather risk CG sailor's lives than screw with the elite's right to be stupid. I'm 62. I don't give a **** how "fit" a 60-year-old is, in his mind....Jack La Lane shouldn't be out sailing alone over 60....maybe over 50! |
