tons aren't just
common sense like what is the wind speed during a strong wind warning.

That should be
common fucking sense if you are going to take control of a boat.

a)20-33 knotsb)20-30 knots c) 15-23 knots d)25-35 knots still common sense? obliviously it means you shouldn't drive your boat but knowing the exact value sure as hell isnt
common senseQuoting

yes, to be a competent boater youre supposed to know the classifications of windspeeds..... its kind of fucking important. there is a difference between light winds, moderate winds, gale force winds, hurricane force winds http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wind#Wind_force_scale and no, its not illegal to operate ALL boats without a lifejacket on, most cases you are only required to have as many, if not more lifejackets than there are occupants on the vessel. shows how much of the reading you did.
^you didnt say it was common sense but replied to my post where i was debating it being common sense, so yes people did say that and you indirectly said it
"yet you were addressing knowing the classifications of windspeeds in regards to being testable subject matter, a classification of windspeed =/ wind warning. moderate winds is not a wind warning."
~again refer to my first statement, STRONG WIND WARNING how is that a not a wind warning?
"and therefore the ABSOLUTE VERY FIRST thing you should do is call the coastguard? before say, you dont have your lifejacket or ensure the safety of everyone involved? good logic"
~it was a multiple choice question, so yes that was the best answer out of the given choices.
"not sure when i said knowing the exact value was necessary.... that is the point of a wind classification"
~Quoting mmallender.$$:
knowing exactly what general range the wind speed is going to be
^thats where
"again... that is the exact point of a wind classification, not sure what you are trying to argue. "
~Quoting mmallender.$$:
knowing exactly what general range the wind speed is going to be
^same answer
"youre right, you did a fantastic job. good on you"
~thank you i thought i did to, now please keep on replying with statements about how you never said this stuff
