    Radar, AIS and autopilot

    Based on recent events such as the ferry and private boat collision, I assume there is no integration of radar, AIS and autopilot to avoid collisions with other vessels or land. Is that correct? I've never used any of these so please excuse if this makes no sense. Seems in these high tech...

    USS Fitzgerald

    Thanks for correcting my incorrect attempted statement of fact. Glad to hear members of the Navy can be immediately terminated.

    Catalina Island: day dream inducing footage

    Forgot to ask, so about how many days out of the year are the waters calm enough to make a pleasant crossing to Catalina in a 24 Tomcat?
