Not Under Command (NUC)

Day #12: Rule 27 says that a vessel not under command (usually because of a broken rudder or a dead engine) shall display two black balls from its mast. A NUC has right of way over every other vessel on the water; even a canoe. Hmm, maybe this is the answer for the single-hander that needs to make a nature call... ;-)

Still in Charleston, SC. No miles today and so holding at 521nm for the trip.
