The wheel on some old ships went the wrong way for sure, but the tiller is a “direct drive”. Looks like the Officer on Watch ordered hard to Port...
I have used Malcolm in the past, and worked with a few other fine (and less fine) surveyors, but my favorite guy is Darrell Brizendine...
Yeah but “Turn to Port, you go to Court”. Initially the schooner had plenty of time to turn Port, I sure would have, instead of playing chicken...
Yeah, he is in deep doo-doo..
Uh, no... I am pretty sure, but not certain, that the idiot operator will hang for this one, video, witnesses and all.

Found this on another forum, now doing a copy and paste. Interesting read about shifting responsibilities with or without anchor balls. (No idea...
Not ugly, but what is it, a brand new retro yacht?
Now docked up the New River awaiting repairs. Looks like the huge side windows survived.. [ATTACH]
Yeah, got the same experience: All the drunks are out then and your boat is fair game. Had wake damage some 15-16 years ago during the Columbus...
