BOTH INTERNATIONAL & INLAND A vessel...

🔍 Key Concepts

• Rule 3 definitions, especially "vessel engaged in fishing" and other special conditions • Rule 18 – Responsibilities between vessels (who keeps out of the way of whom) • The pecking order of vessels with special circumstances (e.g., NUC, RAM, constrained by draft, fishing, sailing, power-driven)

💭 Think About

• List the main categories of vessels in Rule 18 in order of greatest to least privilege, and find where a fishing vessel sits in that list. • Ask yourself: when a vessel is "engaged in fishing," is it treated as more or less restricted than a vessel that cannot maneuver as required by the Rules? • Compare each answer choice to the fishing vessel: which of these would the Rules normally require the fishing vessel to keep clear of?

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify the exact order given in Rule 18 for responsibilities between vessels. • Make sure you understand that "vessel engaged in fishing" has priority over some, but not all, other vessels. • Confirm which of the listed vessel types is highest in the hierarchy relative to a vessel engaged in fishing.
