Name em & shame em

[Nigelpickin]

I agree and it could also become a medium for personal grievances to be played out, not to mention degenerating into a yottie v mobo bunfight. I'm quite sure that all of us have unknowingly and unintentionally irritated somebody else at one time or another during our own boating activities so its also a case of those living in glasshouses not throwing stones etc etc

we could have a poll?

that's a joke and not meant in any way to be inappropriate....

If the majority want it, then why not?

e.g. a Jeanneau that was running parallel on the port side, and slightly ahead, turns in front to cross port to starboard maybe four or five boat lengths away. We are both doing 20kts+, and we have the whole of the Solent to play with, so "Why would you do that?"

Isn't that what the horn is for... ?

Another no vote here. Personal grievances should be sorted person to person not in public.
short term satisfaction for the namer and shamer followed by righteous indignation when its their turn on the block.

Ah, but your boat is based in Greece so you'd spend more time naming and shaming than you would on the water.

The exit to Gouvia is clearly marked as 5 knots but anything under a Greek flag will be doing at least 20.

How about a Name and Fame thread instead for those that we want to praise

what if its an idiot that wants to name &shame another idiot ,am I an idiot to assume these two are idiots ?

And I could occupy a name and shame forum for weeks based on one day's antics of a single yacht flotilla! (crewed largely by English yotties)
Life's too short.

Perhaps we should have a tongue in cheek smiley for those that don't get the irony

as I said
