A sailboat under sail should never give way to a motor boat. However, if it comes up against another sail boat: 1. Overtaking boats must give way 2. Those on Starboard tack have right of way 3. The boat that is closest to the wind (or on the windward side) should give way
The overtaking vessel must always give way. Therefore the powerboat must be prepared to stop or change direction - the sailboat has right of way.
A power boat cannot stop or turn as fast, especially a vessel larger than the sail boat . The sail boat should give way to the power boat.
