🔍 Key Concepts

• Rule 12 – Sailing Vessels (who keeps clear when both are under sail) • Difference between a crossing situation and an overtaking situation • Priority of rules: special case rules (like sailing) vs the general "overtaking" rule

💭 Think About

• Ask yourself: In any situation, what does the COLREGS say about a vessel that is overtaking another, no matter what type of vessel they are? • For two sailing vessels on different tacks, which tack (port or starboard) normally has to keep clear under Rule 12? • Look carefully at option A: does the Rule allow a vessel to simply "hold her course" when she does NOT yet know the other vessel’s tack?

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify in Rule 12 (Sailing Vessels) whether the vessel on the port or starboard tack must keep out of the way when approaching one another. • Check in Rule 13 (Overtaking) what is said about the responsibilities of an overtaking vessel, regardless of whether it is a power-driven or sailing vessel. • Examine whether all three statements in A, B, and C are fully consistent with the wording of the Navigation Rules; if even one is not, then choice D cannot be correct.
