Q

BOTH INTERNATIONAL & INLAND Power-driven vessels must keep out of the way of sailing vessels except __________.

🔍 Key Concepts

• Rule 18 – Responsibilities between vessels (Power-driven vs. sailing) • The definition of overtaking (Rule 13) • When a sailing vessel can become the give-way vessel

💭 Think About

• Think about which situation changes the normal priority and makes the sailing vessel responsible to keep clear instead of the power-driven vessel. • Which of these choices describes a specific COLREGS/Navigation Rules situation with its own clear rule, not just a location or a speed comparison? • Ask yourself: in which of these options does the sailing vessel have a clear duty to avoid the other vessel under the Rules?

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify under Rule 18 that power-driven vessels shall keep out of the way of sailing vessels, and look for the stated exceptions. • Check Rule 13 – Overtaking to see which vessel must keep out of the way regardless of type. • Confirm that the Rules do NOT change priority just because of speed or being in Inland Waters alone.
