Should have hit him with the spot light when he was approaching. Glad to hear eveyone is OK. Close call for sure.
I have an insane spotlight so if that happens, they know exactly where I am at, or they think it is God.

I think that's why you are supposed to have a horn on board. I keep one of those really loud air horn's in a can dealios right where I can reach it. Ya might want to invest the $7.00.
Glad you avoided the accident though.

Had a horn built in as always on my boats. Even so the horn was not on my mind, crash avoidance was. After wards, I'm thnking, why the fock didn't I hit the horn??
Anyway, here's my side to the story.
