However, Mike states he was anchored, within the fleet, in daylight. That the dragger deliberately chose a course that clipped his anchor and dragged his vessel, is poor seamanship and just wrong in my opinion. The Bank is large enough for the two factions to coexist, yet this captain has to pull this crap. He had room and opportunity to avoid this "collision". Nothing more than trying to be the bully. Lights, balls, and signals aside, he was just wrong.
