Is a sailboat with engines running a Stand-on boat?
When there is a danger of collision, the "stand-on" vessel is the one that must maintain its course while the other must take avoiding action. Sailboats usually are the stand-on vessel when meeting a power-driven vessel, even if that vessel is another sailboat (if its engine is powering the boat, and regardless of whether its sails are raised or not). There are exceptions: if the power-driven vessel is "working," such as a fishing boat dragging nets, or the power-driven vessel is confined to a narrow channel due to its draft, then the sailboat must stay out of the way, by altering course if necessary. If a collision is imminent and the other vessel shows no signs of altering course, then the sailboat should take whatever course is necessary to avoid it.
