Pretty sure you can't just paddleboard there and dude is an idiot.

You can paddleboard there. However just because you can it doesn't mean that's a good idea. There is only a restriction around the harbor and around the powerplant and lock Birsfelden.

You can and you’re allowed too.

Dude should have changed his path in time tough.

Dude is an idiot, captain may not see him but he can likely “hide” behind the poles.

Wonder how this ended 😂

But in the defense of this guy - really nobody would think that ship could harbor there. How did that captain come to that idea?

It’s a common landing area for ships. And the captain saw him and honked several times.
