HEH. I pulled a boner the other day. I plotted my course all the way to my destination port, engaged the engine at ahead slow, stood there on the bridge looking at all the people waving bye, feeling warm and fuzzy, then got bored, hit TC, and next thing i knew i had collided into the sandbank due east of the lorient dock you start out in.

I had forgot to tell the navigator to follow the course i had set.
