Boating Tips Episode 23: Passing Other Boats

Be ready for trouble when a power boat passes you in a narrow waterway. As the lead boat, which always has the right of way, stay on your side of the channel and maintain a steady speed so that the overtaking vessel can pass you safely. Use your radio to discuss this with the passing boat.

Thanks for the video...Just to clear things up just a bit, a sail boat has the right of way while under sail. If they are under power, they have the same right if way as any other vessel.

Shouldn't you slow down to not create wake when passing?

Would’ve been nice if the viewers could see what the captain was looking instead of having the camera fixated on him

A "sailing vessel" has the right of way provided that propelling machinery, if fitted, is not being used. 0:10.
