May I congratulate Chris Perkins and Tony Redfern for their excellent paper in the May issue of the Journal. For many years I have read in the Journal, and on occasions listened to, learned ladies and gentlemen discoursing on the subjects of safe navigation and collision avoidance. Also to what I believe are their misguided wanderings into ‘ship domains’ and assumptions that ships behave as atomic particles. Thus it was very refreshing to read the latest and practical contribution by Chris and Tony. Well done chaps!
