Let me make it very clear to you. Brendan is not in my pack. Nor me in his. Any half wit readers will be very aware of that.
Theres something about. When in a hole, stop..... dam I forgot.
To be pedantic. To rescue some one at sea. You have to do something about it. Like try to rescue them.
As a harbour master, there is nothing to do. If he tried to stop them from entering. That is murder or manslaughter if yer lucky. There is no law, saying it, again, because any harbour master refusing entry would be insane. The logic of why he may refuse, dont bare thinking about. Damage to his newly sand blasted harbour walls?? The whole thought of a harbour refusing entry is stupid. Well, there not keen on Russian war ships in plymouth, but thats entirely a different issue. They are allowed to shelter in the sound though.
Humm, it's hard work......Theres no law cos to stop entry in a storm, would be difficult or piracy...... Or as above adfinitum.
