Re: Cowes Week Yacht Hits Bulk Tanker

I would like to see a tanker making 25 Kts. and have no bow wave.

According to the article, there was a pilot boat escorting with a clear zone in between, and the ship was blasting a DANGER signal. The sailboat behind Suicide Clyde had the intelligence to see the danger and stood off and passed behind the tanker...`
