Having radar or not, common sense should allways be used in fog !
We pre fished the friday before FLW in Dennis on the Ave Maria 2 that has $20k worth of electronics, including the 4k 48 mile Raymarine radar (thats awesome)
We were close to Nantucket drifting in pretty thick fog.
We picked up a boat coming at us on radar, and eventually heard a boat coming at us going pretty fast!
The boat nearly rammed us going WAY too fast, and of course, they had NO radar!
Turned out to be another boat fishing the tournament !
I would bet more than 3/4 operators of boats don't know fog signals according the rules !

LETS GO BRANDON
