Yes,I can see your point.Even though not knowing the rules of maneuver and
all the shapes,lights and sounds associated with safe maneuver is
foolhardy.It is a problem worldwide.Allowing a person to operate a vessel
who isn't aware of the rules should,in my opinion,be criminal.One can't
legally operate a vehicle with out understanding the rules,why should a boat
be differant?

The trouble with day shapes/lights is that the only boats that might
recognize them will by commercial boats. DAMHIK
