: Hmmm- that's pretty cool. It probably wouldn't be very visible to
: passing boaters but would be great to stake out your tent so you
: don't trip over the guylines at night! It also would make a
: great painter as you said.

: This reminds me of a story- I was coming across Pilsbury Sound
: between St. Thomas and St. John one night and saw a vessel pass
: with three white lights on the masthead. That should mean they
: are towing a vessel, but I saw no lights behind in tow. I
: figured he forgot to turn off the masthead lights after dropping
: off his load, but I decided to be safe and sit and wait it out.
: Suddenly St. Thomas just disappeared. It looked like there was a
: power outage, which is very often the case- all of a sudden the
: lights just disappeared. After adjusting my eyes a bit I
: realized that a barge was passing in front of me, with not one
: single light on it. Thank goodness I decided to play it safe.
: Had I passed astern of the tow vessel I would have either hit
: the tow line or been plowed over by the vessel in tow or both!

: By the way, although this happened in a small powerboat, it makes a
: good point that if you're on the water in any craft you need to
: be familiar with navigational rules... day or night!
