Tell me about it...
Working in the tour boat industry we deal with cruise ships alot, and it is DEPLORABLE how little attention is paid to these guys... I can take my 13 whaler and circle them with no attention being paid,

I actually had a CG ask me, as a Capt of another, civillian (tour) boat to keep an eye out and call them if I saw anything suspicious since were were shuttling pax all day and would be in the vacinity all day...
I know the CG is understaffed, but comeon, at least keep a 23' near by with a few '16s locked and loaded just in case....
