I posted west but should have been more specific.

The boat left the dock did a u and came down the port side of the channel, which is east, and north. I do not know the oncoming approach protocol in the BMore Harbor, but I will blindly bet you $100 it was starboard yesterday. Port is fairly standard most places, but the master clearly brought it down the north side of the channel. The collision happened as the boat turned almost directly south.
