However, in international waters, that wouldn't be the case, so when
BAR claimed that the bigger you are means you have more rights, he's
wrong in several cases.

You missed my point completely. It doesn't matter if you have the right
of way if you die in the process of expecting the other boat, car or 18-
wheeler to yield to your right of way.

When there are ships or barges transiting the Potomac river everyone has
to get out of their way. Even in the Chesapeake Bay you need to get out
of the way of ships and barges when they are in the channel. due to the
fact that outside of the channel it can get extremely shallow quickly.

If you can defend your right of way from the grave good luck on coming
back and boating in this world again.




As usual, you've missed your own point. The rules are there to be
followed by everyone. If people start assuming what the other is going
to do, then that's when you'll be able to defend your action from
grave.
