OTHER SPECIAL SITUATIONS:
There are three other rules you should be aware of when driving your Ballistic
®
around other vessels.
NARROW CHANNELS AND BENDS:
When navigating in narrow channels, you should keep to the right when it is safe and practical to do so. If the operator of
a power driven vessel is preparing to go around a bend that may obstruct the view of other water vessels, the operator
should sound a prolonged blast on the horn (4 to 6 seconds). If another vessel is around the bend, it too should sound the
horn. Even if no reply is heard, however, the vessel should still proceed around the bend with caution.
FISHING VESSEL RIGHT OF WAY:
All vessels which are Sishing with nets, lines or trawls are considered to be Sishing vessels under the international rules.
Vessels with trolling lines are not considered Sishing vessels. Fishing vessels have the right of way regardless of position.
Fishing vessels cannot, however, impede the passage of other vessels in narrow channels.
SAILING VESSEL RIGHT OF WAY:
Sailing vessels should normally be given the right of way. The exceptions to this are: When the sailing vessel is overtaking
the power driven vessel, the power driven vessel has the right of way. Sailing vessels should keep clear of any Sishing
vessels. In a narrow channel, a sailing vessel should not hamper the safe passage of a power driven vessel which can
navigate only in such a channel.
