🔍 Key Concepts

• Inland Navigation Rules – Western Rivers special situations • Meaning of downbound with a following current vs. upbound against the current • Responsibilities for sound signals and right of way (stand-on vs give-way) in a meeting situation

💭 Think About

• Ask yourself: On the Western Rivers, which vessel is given priority when the current is significant – the one going with the current or against it? • Think about who must initiate whistle signals in a head‑on/meeting situation on Western Rivers – is it tied to direction of current? • Consider whether the vessel that has priority also both proposes the manner of passage and initiates the sound signal, or only one of those.

✅ Before You Answer

• Check the Inland Navigation Rule section that deals specifically with Western Rivers meeting situations. • Verify which vessel is defined as the stand-on vessel when one is downbound with a following current and the other is upbound. • Confirm whether the same vessel both initiates and proposes the maneuver, and whether that is considered a form of right of way in this context.
