This boat was approaching on a course that would have us passing each other in an area with much less than 150' separation. I slowed to headway speed. As the other boat got closer I realized he was not going to slow down. I pulled out the digital camera and powered it up just in time to catch this picture (just a little late). You can see the back of my boat (the Sea Que) in the bottom of the picture - note no wake. I try to catch shots like this of the "offshore" boats that pass too close but they are long gone before I can get the camera out (let alone turned on). Photo Oct 2004

It goes to show that "offshores" aren't the only offenders

Do you think maybe you slowed down just for this photo opp? Theres a pretty good chance if you both continued at speed your boats would have never have even came close to a couple hundred feet of each other
