The operators of both boats are responsible for collision. Individual skippering a boat must do everything possible to avoid collision.

Part of the navigation rule states that every person skippering a boat should consider all dangers and collision risks and that could also mean breaking the rules if evasive action is required.

<h2>Further Explanation</h2>

There are certain rules that every boat operator must follow when confronting other vessels.  These rules are very essential so as to avoid collision.

The navigation rules are below

  • If two boats are getting close to each other head on, it is important for both boats to change their course to the right (starboard) in order for both boats to end up passing port-side to port-side
  • In a situation that two boats cross each other part and are on course for collision, it must important to give way to the boat on the right (starboard). The boat giving way must take prompt action. Such boat operator can either stop the boat or change the course to the right.
  • In the circumstance that the boat giving way has another boat on the port hand side that is not changing course or give way, the helmsman can take action with a stop or change direction
  • It is important that any boat, motorized, sail or powered must give plenty of room if overtaking.
