Been meaning to post this for a while: what’s the etiquette for dealing with others’ sloppy chit?
A lot of time there may be shore power lines mostly in the water, an upwind dock neighbor may have a boat that’s nearly derelict and their dock lines are almost chaffed through, or a roller furler is loose and the sail flapping.
ive been told in the past it’s a felony to board another boat without permission - not sure if it’s true but still don’t do it (only relevant for dealing with a loose furler).
Not trying to be a Good Samaritan necessarily but just want to avert potential danger and damage as much as possible.
any thoughts?
