30
Q

CBD

A

due to the available depth and width of her navigable water

31
Q

Give way vessel script

A

I will take a series of compass bearings of the approaching vessel. If the compass bearings remain the same or do not appreciably change then a risk of collision is deemed to exist.

She is the stand on vessel.

I am the “keep out of way” vessel.

I shall sound one short blast of the whistle for duration of 1 second.

I will make a bold alteration of course to STBD by 40-60 degrees.

I will monitor the situation and once she is past and clear return to original course.

32
Q

Stand on vessel script

A

I will take a series of compass bearings of the approaching vessel. If compass bearings remain constant or do not appreciably change a risk of collision is deemed to exist.

I am the stand on vessel.

I shall maintain course and speed.

I may, however, take action to avoid collision by my manoeuvre alone

As soon as it becomes apparent that the other vessel is not taking appropriate action in compliance with the rules

I shall sound 5 short rapid blasts
Call master
Engage hand steering

If there is no response I shall sound 1 short blast and turn to STBD

If the vessel that has to maintain course and speed
Finds herself so close
That action of give way vessel alone Connor avoid collision

I SHALL take such action as will be best to avoid collision.

I shall sound 5 short rapid blasts and take any action necessary to avoid collision.

33
Q

Avoid collisions and shall not impede

A

… risk of collision exists.

R15, R18

However, under R10 no vessel shall impede on my safe passage in the TSS.

I shall sound 5 short rapid blasts to remind her of her obligation not to impede.

If there is no response then the normal steering and sailing rules apply and will act accordingly.

34
Q

CBD

A

…risk of collision exist.

I am the “shall not impede” vessel.

I shall take early action
To allow sufficient sea room
To allow the safe passage of the do not impede vessel.

I will sound one short blast and turn to STBD to parallel the vessels course.
