asking about the insurance company statistics of comparing people
with similar years of experience at their individual tasks. i doubt
that a person sailing in mid ocean is going to collide with someone
driving.

You've got to be kidding me? How about a collision with a big wave?
Boats get swamped all the time when their skippers don't or *can't* or
misjudge a big wave in a storm. And, it even happens when there isn't
a storm.

how is this different if the skipper is older?

At this point, I have to believe you're trolling Charlie. I'm gone
from this thread.

i'm simply pointing out that what you think you're arguing about isn't
consistent. you changed arguments midstream, bringing up a comparison which
isn't pertinent.
