one more reason...

I was wing and wing approaching Best Point in the Indian Arm, and a fishing boat "Miss Leila III" just about ran me down. As the boat came across my stern while I emergency gybed I noticed the silhouette of the pilot with his feet up aft reading a book.

I don't *know* that he didn't see me, or that he was on autopilot, but I'm guessin'. He also wasn't monitoring ch 16 a minute or two later when I tried to get in touch with him.
