Who here is suggesting that they don't have?
And of course responsibly is subjective. I think Yachties sailing around zig zagging all over the place (I think they call it tacking) when they have a perfectly good engine they could use and go in a straight line is being irresponsible.
Tacking of course was used when boats did not have engines and had no other option.... Now there is another option some still like to tack all over the place and expect others to avoid them. Must be some sort of regression thing
So as I said Responsibly is subjective
At 28 knots, the wheel over to port as you went past Devils point and then to starboard after passing Drakes Island would have been interesting.I much preferred my Leander steam to T22 gas turbine days. I don't know about the physics but we slowed enough not to hit it, allow it to restart its outboard and move on. And yes we'd have been doing 10knots or thereabouts, 28 would probably have put us into the speeding category and a telling off from QHM.
PricelessI suggest not feeding the troll

at 28 knots it would have been interesting .... if nothing else think of the wash ...As they say in the Hunt for Red October, " possible but not recommended!"
Five short blasts I presume.We sounded our horn with no acknowledgement. So hard astern and keeping the horn on eventually one of those on board saw us grabbed the helm and blasted out of the way.
Five short blasts and then 'here I come sounding one loooooong blast.' *Four to six seconds' is quite a long time if your sound signal is LOUD and I'm sure nobody's going to complain if you stretch the six seconds...at 28 knots it would have been interesting .... if nothing else think of the wash ...
