We had an interesting discussion about bareboat chartering. By viewing the powerpoint presentation you can see the highlights of our discussion. I learned a lot from the various discussions we had.
When there is a man overboard incident, you should start throwing floating objects overboard so you have a trail leading back to the victim. (Thanks to Stefan Berlkinski)
The best type of anchor for general cruising is a Rocna or other spade type anchor. (Thanks to Don Radcliffe)
I guess I am rather old school because after taking the coastal navigation course from Coast Guard auxiliary, I have always used a puck compass to see where I am and where I am going. When I described this process it was pointed out that it is easier to look at your chart plotter (Thanks Don)
This coming Tuesday a discussion will be held by Chris Hofmann and Fred Molnar on "Crossing situations and rules on rounding marks". Barbecue will be open from 5:15 to 5:45 and seminar will start at 6pm.
Looking forward to seeing you there.
