Not only should he have left it on but he is REQUIRED
BY LAW to leave it on.

RULE 7
Risk of Collision
(a) Every vessel shall use all available means appropriate to the
prevailing circumstances and conditions to determine if risk of collision
exists. If there is any doubt such risk shall be deemed to exist.
(b) Proper use shall be made of radar equipment if fitted and operational,
including long-range scanning to obtain early warning of risk
of collision and radar plotting or equivalent systematic observation of
detected objects.

1) Booby is operating illegally and a hazard to navigation.

2) He is in violation of the above Rule and should be fined.

3) I'm going to forward his post where he admitted to turning off
his radar set to the authorities. Somebody needs to require
he sit down and learn the Rules before he is further allowed
to endanger the saftey of mariner.

I think this was the comment:

"Yup, works great. For most of the night we had it one to look out for storms.
It was not needed to make the entrance. While Suzanne is learning basic nav,
the radar may confuse things since we're pretty new to it."

Frankly, I think you should have left is on so that you can learn more about radar, while
Suzy learned the serious stuff.

You claimed I was lying... Prove It!

No problem. Here's the original post.

"I see no reason to have Suzanne learn the radar until she has a good
grasp of basic nav skills."

Now, mooron, you claimed I posted I could not read a radar, based on
the above post. Ozzy and I both called you on it. You ARE A LIAR and
it's now PROVEN.

Thanks...I AM GOD HERE!
