You are correct, nobody is going to go directly towards another boat at high speed. Yet Woodsy has explained to us that unless a boat is doing EXACTLY that then their recorded speed is thown out. It does not become part of the data.

Therefore one would expect almost all the data collected to be low speed. And guess what.... it was!

Which of course is exactly what was intended when the test was designed. And are we really supposed to believe the MP could not get their hands on even one unmarked boat? This study cost tens of thousands of man hour dollars but they couldn't find a skiff with a ten HP.

This entire project does not pass the laugh test! Tax dollars down the drain.
