Asshole. There is something called "depth of field" and it made my hand looked so bloated that it was attached to someone who is super morbidly obese. I really am very trim and in perfect health, it was depth of field that made my hand look extremely fat and pudgy. -- Don't forget to leave a bit of beef for rec.boat's right-wing conservatrashers and ID spoofers to feed upon.

Under sail, it is up to the sailboat to avoid the less maneuverable freighter. You need to get your reading compression up a bit. As usual, you don't know much about anything. I just looked at the international regulations, and tankers do not have right of way over sail. And, generally unless there's some restriction on a vessels maneuverability, it can't overtake another an claim right of way. There are also crossing situations for power boats. In the particular case in the vid, the tanker did have the right of way. Other than that, basically, you're a moron. |

There was a widely publicized incident in San Diego a number of years ago. A well known sailor named Lowell North (founder of the North Sails loft), cut very close to the front of a freighter during a race. There was no collission but it was way to close for comfort. The freighter captain complained to USCG, a hearing was conducted, and North was fined some large amount of money for his recklessness. |

There is no such rule that says a tanker can run down a smaller boat. Nothing in 18b talks about this situation. Take the limiting case of two tankers. The one overtaking is 700 ft long.

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. |
