Gordon;

I agree with you entirely-the rules are pretty clear, but one has to have
read them to apply them. For example, I have given up blowing passing
signals to pleasure craft-blowing one or two whistles just seems to confuse
them;and worse, it commits me to a course of action that may become
inappropriate if they start circling around like rabbits with a dog after
them (this has happened more than once to me). The only whistles I sound are
the danger signal-5 short blasts(international).

Someone recently posted an unrelated message comparing a certain type vessel
with Dodge Morgan's American Promise. I couldn't help wonder if I was to
visualize her before or after she was run down by a coal barge off Patuxent
river =:o.
