Even assuming there were no special rules, and the ship not NUC, RAM or CbD, the small boat still had an obligation to take action

Sorry for the off topic but can someone give me the names of those two yachts that were here last Summer or the year before, the ones with the 3-4 big masts? One was in Galway the other was up in Dublin...

...here's another landlocked wannabe: Maritime museum in Tokyo.......... passed it every day for a week, a while ago.

Ode To The Motorist
“And my existence, while grotesque and incomprehensible to you, generates funds to the exchequer. You don't want to acknowledge that as truth because, deep down in places you don't talk about at the Green Party, you want me on that road, you need me on that road. We use words like freedom, enjoyment, sport and community. We use these words as the backbone of a life spent instilling those values in our families and loved ones. You use them as a punch line. I have neither the time nor the inclination to explain myself to a man who rises and sleeps under the tax revenue and the very freedom to spend it that I provide, and then questions the manner in which I provide it. I would rather you just said "thank you" and went on your way. Otherwise I suggest you pick up a bus pass and get the ********* ********* off the road”

That moment when the chief mate wonders if he got all his trim, tide, squat etc. calculations right and this was going to work (or not...)
