Sailboat crash

Care to point to the USCG regs that say this? Hint, there's no such reg. In fact, it's a fairly complicated deal. For example, if the other vessel is to the right, then it is right, all other things being equal. If the "large" ferry is restricted in some way, then it would have standon status.

this is where size does matter, does not matter who has the right way , the smaller you are the quicker you will sink , the bigger you are the more you have the right way.

You can see the pilot of the sailboat jump at 0:09

@elektrikerphil There is a big difference to having the right of way, and being in the right mind!
-
I hope to god you're talking about the farry having the right of way.

Skipper did NOT have right of way as he was under power not sail, and even then larger ferry boats have right of way, bigger is better in this case.

Mr. Bonney was a very good sailor,
at least that's what he told all of you.
He claimed right of way with a large ferry boat
an became part of the oceanside view.
It was his right, that's what he claims,
written in the London review,
he was right, dead right,
so here lies one that didn't let through.

@mobyware i think hes a complete tit

How could you possibly claim he has the right of way?
He has no sails up and is therefore considered a motorboat.
He deliberately places his starboard side in the way of the ferry.
Motorboats give way to the right.
He could hardly be more at fault.
And you might learn how to spell "Too"...

That has got to be the worst pilot I have ever seen.

I believe it was an attempt at insurance fraud but somebody had a camera running!

@elektrikerphil if it was a insurance scam would he dive into a farry with crew on the bow or would the boat just be scuttled at sea in deap watter

@ruddorthner1 You are right. I guess we'll never know. Perhaps he was trying to give his crew a thrill and it backfired.
