Yes,I can see your point.Even though not knowing the rules of maneuver and all the shapes,lights and sounds associated with safe maneuver is foolhardy.It is a problem worldwide.Allowing a person to operate a vessel who isn't aware of the rules should,in my opinion,be criminal.One can't legally operate a vehicle with out understanding the rules,why should a boat be differant? -----Original Message----- From: Dan Hogan [mailto:dhhogan1@earthlink.net] Sent: Tuesday, June 10, 2003 14:33 To: NAVIGATION-L@LISTSERV.WEBKAHUNA.COM Subject: Re: FW: log lines The trouble with day shapes/lights is that the only boats that might recognize them will by commercial boats.
