Navigation Rules
Overtaking or Passing: If you are passing
another vessel, you are the give-way vessel.
The other vessel is expected to maintain its
course and speed. You must stay out of its
way until you are clear of it. If another vessel
is passing you, you should maintain your
course and speed so that the other vessel can
steer around you. Non-motorized Vessels: Non-motorized
vessels such as sailboats and canoes always
have the right of way except:
1) When the sailing vessel is overtaking a
power vessel, the power vessel has the
right of way.
2) Sailing vessels should keep clear of fishing
vessels.
3) In a narrow channel, non-motorized
vessels cannot interfere with the safe
passage of a power vessel.
