Rather than flipping him off, I did a 360 degree turn to port, losing my momentum in the process. He could have throttled back and waited until I passed, which would have been maybe a minute or two at most. Yes, the Tillicum is a bit bigger than Belle-Vie, but whatever happened to the rules of the road? Just say'n.

We had a incident like that up here , maybe 20 years or more ago, where the pleasure craft was on autopilot and the ferry refused to change coarse. Ended with 3 dead, 2 survivors and B.C. Ferries being cited for 13 violations of Col. Regs. You just can’t trust those professionals to know the rules!
