Basic Rules of the Road
Sport
Lights, bells and horns are used on buoys for night or poor visibility
conditions. Buoys with unique light flashing characteristics are
identified on nautical charts with the specific flashing pattern.
Right-of-Way
NOTICE
In general, boats with less maneuverability have right-of-way over
more agile craft. You must stay clear of the vessel with right-of-way
and pass to his stern.
Privileged Boats
Privileged boats have right-of-way and can hold course and speed.
Sailboats and boats paddled or rowed have the right-of-way over
motor boats. Sailboats under power are considered motorboats.
Small pleasure craft must yield to large commercial boats in narrow
channels.
Burdened Boats
The burdened boat is the boat that must make whatever adjustment
to course and speed necessary to keep out of the way of the
privileged boat.
