When the vessel required to keep her course and finds herself so close that collision cannot be avoided by the action of give-way vessel alone she SHALL take action that will best aid to avoid collision
Power driven vessel shall not alter course port for vessel on her own port side of the circumference admits

Question 14

Rule 19
