Well, as I’m a skipper I’ll try this again. A skipper or captain doesn’t have to be at the helm. They can competently do their job with any member of the crew at the helm. On larger vessels it’s another matter, but it still doesn’t require the captain to be in driver control. Do you understand yet?
Fun fact. One (anecdotal) way of relieving sea sickness is to start driving the boat.
There could be something to it, too. You’d be focusing your eyes on the water and anticipating the motions.
Boat captains HATE this one trick!
Captain isn’t driver on boats.
You waited two weeks to misread a comment. Good job.
Why’s the time relevant? Did it go stale?
Your literacy? Apparently.
