Alot of people have called JRC ignorant or something of the sort. Although I would love to see everyone tool around at headway, JRC seems to at least be rational. That is alot more than can be said for some morons. And it is hard to know the circumstances behind every driver.
Alot of people have eluded to common sense. One definition on Websters states as follows..."2 : sound and prudent but often unsophisticated judgment"
While perhaps not popular, I have to believe that JRC's behavior falls within this definition. Few, if any, of us are experts. We must all use our own judgement. I am in no position to judge JRC's determination that he was far enough from shore to cause little or no damage.
Again, I would encourage all boaters to obey the NWZ and play it safe.
