Sekiu boat accident in fog yesterday

[birddogdad]

Was reading of an Arima run over by another boat in the fog from Sekiu. Clearly lack of radar and running in fog blind. Be careful out there! All survived from reports. there are laws and marine rules....

no radar is sketchy right to start with but many dont realize there are "Law for safe speed in the Rules of the Nautical road" . 

i cant count the times i have been stationary off shore and hear a boat steaming and watch them last minute turn away! pretty sketchy!!!

Damn that would suck

Looks like that was a nice boat, too bad.  Glad that everyone survived.

So many knuckleheads bombing around in the fog!!

I added AIS to my boat, but that only shows the bigger boats that are transmitting.  I was on a charter out of Deep Creek and the guide almost ran over a boat anchored not too far offshore fishing.

It's spooky stuff for sure.
