Rick,

you do (so triple points for you (each point can be converted to a drink of 
your choice when visiting on my boat)). Though, I should have said that 
professionals should not apply (;-).

I don’t have the day shapes either, but I have to say that a long while ago I 
used to sail on a boat that regularly displayed the black ball when anchoring. 
And we used to carry both the black ball and the black cone. However, I don’t 
remember ever displaying the inverted cone. And I don’t think I ever saw an 
inverted cone displayed.

So I get extra credit for knowing it’s a black ball, and double for knowing 
it’s an inverted cone? 

 

No, wait,, you don’t need to send anything. The USCG already gave me my 
Masters’ License for knowing this sort of minutia. And, no, I don’t have any 
day shapes aboard any of my boats – including the charter schooner I run. And 
the USCG has never asked.

Of course we all are guilty of not following the rules (e.g. raise hand who 
regularly displays a day shape when anchoring (for extra points, who knows what 
the day shape for anchoring is), or worse yet – who regularly (or even 
occasionally) displays the day shape that is required for a sailing vessel 
under auxiliary power? (double points if you know what that one is without 
looking up)).
