Jeff,

I won't disagree with you on number 3, however being a helmsman on a 1730 ton lethagric whale, I can tell you that nobody every gave me that order. It sounds like it should be a response from a lookout as opposed to a helmsman. Pray tell would you be so kind as to explain the scenario in which that order applies?

Also have you figured out where two points abaft the starboard beam is?

Bill
