Does radar not work in sandstorms? From: Jan-GAMs Sent: Monday, March 29, 2021 3:02 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: [AFMUG] OT: Hold my beer 2
I read it was a 40knot wind + sandstorm. Radar would have been about as useful as our radios as in why bother to turn it on. Plus any idea how much surface area that thing had? In a 40 knot gale? My question is, what were they doing with anchors if they weren't deploying them?

As soon as they assume responsibility on the bridge it’s their problem.

If they had dredged it to 450 meters, that sucker could have done a little spin. The other solution would be to only allow ships that are < 200 meters long. bp<part15sbs{at}gmail{dot}com>On 3/29/2021 11:59 AM, Jaime Solorza wrote: -- AF mailing list [email protected] http://af.afmug.com/mailman/listinfo/af_af.afmug.com -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- -- AF mailing list [email protected] http://af.afmug.com/mailman/listinfo/af_af.afmug.com
