Show Know the rules of boating Navigation rules were devised to prevent collisions of vessels on the water. However, if you dont know the rules how can accidents be prevented? Well talk about them here. passing port to port (left side to left side). The turn must be sharp enough so that the other boat knows what is happening. The actions should be taken soon enough so as to prevent confusion. In other words, start the turn w hile the other boat is far off. Passing a boat is another matter. The boat being passed is the stand-o- n vessel and the passing boat must give way and needs to think of another problem - its wake. The skipper of the boat is always responsible for the damage caused by a w'ake, so be careful. First you have to know w hich vessel is which.

When meeting another vessel neither is the stand-o- n boat and both boats must give way by turning to the right, or starboard, and give way to one which is less so. A good rule of thumb for distance is if you can read the registration numbers on the other boat you are too close. If, for example, you are on a personal watercraft and are meeting a boat with a water skier you must give way regardless of your position. The rules do state that you have a responsibility to avoid a collision at all costs vessel. even if you are the stand-o- n There are a lot of boaters who dont have the slightest clue as to proper rules so act defensively. Always give way to sailboats, canoes, row boats and small fishing boats and slow down so your waves dont swamp them. Another rule to consider is traveling in a narrow channel such as a canyon at Lake Powell. You are required to keep particularly true when there are sharp turns where visibility is restricted.
