Title: Know Your Position
Post by: Tote on July 06, 2013, 08:24:25 AM
Thought I'd post a reminder to be aware of where you are in relationship to boats OTW.
This boat hit a moored boat because he was blinded by sun glare.

Be aware if you are between the sun and another boat and the boat is looking into the sun.
There's a very good chance he may not see you.
