About Sailing Right of Way
Rule A. Approach on different tacks - Port tack shall give way
Rule B. Approach on the same tack - Windward shall give way
The other boat is obliged to 'stand on', meaning that it should maintain constant course and speed as far as possible. This more specific terminology generally supplants 'right of way' in boating colregs.
--------------
Boat models are International Folkboat and Salcombe Yawl
Enquiries welcome re customizing this sim e.g. with your own sailing school logo or boat models
