Granted the guy/gal was probably just a bone head. But nothing much has
een said about any dayshapses, lights or audible signals that were or
were not present.

I haven't seen a dayshape on any tug, fishing vessel or bouy tender in
years - like almost 25 or so and I travel through some of the most
heavily traveled areas in the world. :)

What Matt eventually detailed was a bone head maneuver on the part of
a tour boat operator who had pudding for brains.
