Bill,
You are dead right. There is no excuse for poor seamanship, especially when lives are lost, and I don't claim Motor boaters are any worse or better than sailors.
I was annoyed by the self righteous attitude of mr Webb who apparently gloats over others misfortune, and who ( it seems ) thinks sailors don't make any mistakes. Friendly stinkpot/raggie banter is fine, "but holier than thou" attitudes do get up my nose - wherever it comes from.
Rant over.
