Stand on vesses:
The power boat is the stand on vessel if it is being overtaken by a sailboat. For example, if you are at headway speed and being oventaken by a Hobie Cat, you are the stand on vessel. Note, this is in the NavRules but may not apply in NH. We like to make up our own rules because we are special or something.
Real good queston Waves!
New question for all of you coffee table navigators out there: We are talking distance here...
What is the difference between any given degree of LATITUDE and any given degree of LONGITUDE?
Extra credit: What is a RHUMB LINE? If you sail one northward where will you end up. Hint: Loxodrome. It's OK to use your CHAPMAN'S!
