As an allegedly accomplished photographer who claims to have been published in several magazines (of course while trying to pass an owl picture off as his own) you should know there is this phenomenon called "depth-of-field". 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. The more they feed, the quicker rec.boats will fall into the black hole of cyberspace and disappear. |

Doesn't matter if you are on the highway or on the water. According to the regulation I've read, this is incorrect a lot of the time. Wow, glad you can't afford a boat. The least maneuverable boat gets the right of way. Also, the sailboat broke the first rule, all boaters should avoid collisions at all costs. Combine the two above, no way out for the stupid sailboat owner. About the only way for the sailboat to be not at fault would be if the sailboat was anchored out of the main channel. 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. Like I said, I am glad you can't afford a boat. -- Flea party (leftie) fear, begets flea party smear. |

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. |
