"Red right return" means keep the red bouys to the right as you come back into the harbor. That kind of "memory key" or whatever it's called is used a lot for learning navigational aids. Red over red has to do with the lights on the mast of a ship -- red over red means they've lost control of their ship and it's unmaneuverable. So stay the hell away. Red over green means it's a sailboat ("red over green, sailing machine). So don't run them over. White over red means it's a pilot vessel ("white over red, pilot ahead). So get ready to pick up the harbor pilot. There are tons of these. Mrs. Satan's Sin refuses even the kindest of cocktail suggestions. [ Edited by: Satan's Sin on 2004-07-26 13:16 ]
