When approaching another vessel head-on, both vessels should alter their course to starboard (right) to pass each other safely. This helps to avoid a collision by ensuring that both vessels steer clear of each other. It's essential to communicate intentions clearly, using sound signals if necessary, and maintain a proper lookout. Always prioritize safety and follow the navigation rules applicable to the situation.

What should you do if a sailboat is operating under sail at night Which lights should be used?
If a sailboat is operating under sail at night, it should display a white stern light and a red and green navigation light at the bow. The red light indicates the port side (left), while the green light indicates the starboard side (right). These lights help other vessels determine the sailboat's orientation and direction of travel. Additionally, if the sailboat is not under power, it should not display a white masthead light, as that indicates a powered vessel.
