🔍 Key Concepts

• Rule 18 – Responsibilities between vessels (power-driven vs. vessel engaged in fishing) • Difference between International Rule 34 and Inland Rule 34 maneuvering signals • Who is the stand-on vessel and who is the give-way vessel when one vessel is engaged in fishing

💭 Think About

• Look at the illustration: in a potential risk-of-collision situation, which vessel is required by Rule 18 to keep out of the way? • Under the International Rules, are whistle signals required simply because two vessels are within 1/2 mile, or only when a vessel is actually indicating a maneuver? • If you are the vessel that must keep clear, what is the safest, most compliant way to act toward the fishing vessel in open waters?

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify under Rule 18 that a power-driven vessel underway shall keep out of the way of a vessel engaged in fishing • Check International Rule 34 to see whether one- or two-blast signals are used to request permission or to indicate a maneuver already being made • Decide whether, in this open-water situation, your primary duty is to maintain course and speed or to take early and substantial action to keep clear of the fishing vessel
