Giving Way in Sailing
All types of vessels on the water are governed
by the International Regulations for Preventing
Collisions at Sea, frequently abbreviated as
COLREGS. The entire set of rules is highly
complicated, however, when you start sailing, it
is sufficient to be familiar with the basic rules
that are listed here.
T h e r u l e s f o r
n a v i g a t i o n i n
a channel (or canal)
All vessels must stay
to the right side in
channels or canals,
so that they meet on
their port side.
Overtaking rule
An overtaking vessel
must keep out of the
way of the vessel
b e i n g o v e r t a k e n ,
even in the case of a
s a i l i n g v e s s e l
overtaking a power-
driven vessel.

A vessel that arrives
from the right is given
way in the same way
as on the road. When power-driven
vessels meet head-
on, they turn their
course to the right and
meet on their port
side.
The starboard side
vessel alters her
course in order to sail
behind the stern of the
port side vessel. The windward vessel
s h a l l a v o i d t h e
leeward vessel and
navigate in order to
sail behind her.
The port rule A vessel sailing
port side (with the boom on the
port side) has the pass over
a vessel sailing starboard side.
The vessel sailing starboard side
must give way to a vessel sailing
port side.
