🔍 Key Concepts

• Rule 12 – Sailing Vessels (Nav Rules): which sailing vessel keeps out of the way when they meet • How to tell which side the wind is on from the drawing (look at the wind arrow and which side the sails are drawn on) • Difference between a vessel being close‑hauled and which side the wind is actually on

💭 Think About

• First decide: for each vessel, is the wind on her port or starboard side, based only on the wind arrow and the way the sails are drawn. • Once you know which side the wind is on for each vessel, apply Rule 12: which tack (port or starboard) must keep clear, and which tack is allowed to stand‑on when the vessels have the wind on opposite sides? • Check whether this is really a head‑on power‑driven situation or a sailing‑vessel situation under the Rules.

✅ Before You Answer

• Be sure you can clearly state: Vessel I – wind on (port/starboard?), Vessel II – wind on (port/starboard?) before choosing an answer. • Verify that Rule 14 – Head‑on is for power‑driven vessels; for two sailing vessels you should be under Rule 12, not Rule 14. • Confirm whether being close‑hauled changes the stand‑on / give‑way relationship under Rule 12, or if the decision is based only on which side the wind is on.

Question 1 of 27070

BOTH INTERNATIONAL & INLAND Two sailing vessels are approaching each other as shown in illustration D003RR below. Which statement is correct?

Vessel "I" should stand-on because she is close-hauled.

Vessel "II" should stand-on because she has the wind on her starboard side.

Neither vessel is the stand-on vessel because they are meeting head-on.

Vessel "I" should stand-on because she has the wind on her port side.
