A sailboat under sail encounters a motorboat Both boats are underway When would the sailboat be?

In any encounter between two "vessels," there is a "give-way" vessel and a "stand-to" vessel. The "give-way" vessel is the one that lets the "stand-to" vessel. IOW the "stand-to" vessel has the right-of-way. This is the "pecking order" of vessels: Vessels not under command Vessels restricted in their ability to maneuver Vessels constrained by draft Fishing vessels engaged in fishing, with gear deployed Sailing vessels Power-driven vessels Notice something? As you go down the list, the vessels become more and more maneuverable. A vessel constrained by draft - a ship that has to run in a dredged channel so it won't bottom-out - is less maneuverable than a sailboat, and a sailboat is less maneuverable than a motorboat. So...ASSUMING the two vessels are going to cross paths in a way that could cause a collision, the sailboat would be the stand-to vessel and the motorboat the give-way vessel. If the sailboat's path doesn't cross the motorboat's path or the motorboat's going to cross 20 miles in front of the sailboat, you don't have to do anything.
