Have you ever walked down the street and tried to avoid a head-on collision with a pedestrian coming the other way, you both try and get out of each others way by dodging the same way, then do the same the other way. Eventually one of you decides to stop dodging and the other dodges and you can both carry on.

Its very dangerous to have 2 boats avoiding each other, one has to has rights and the other do the dodging.


I would hate to be on the water with someone that is ignoring the rules...
