Boating Safety
Burdened Vessel
The burdened vessel does not have the right-of-way and has the
duty to take positive and timely action to stay out of the way of the
privileged vessel. Normally, the burdened vessel should not cross in
front of the privileged vessel. The burdened vessel should slow
down or change directions and pass behind the other vessel. The
burdened vessel operator should always move in such a way that the
privileged vessel operator can see what you are doing in ample time
to avoid a collision.
Crossing
In crossing situations, the boat to the right from the 12 o'clock to
the 4 o'clock position has the right-of-way, and it must hold course
and speed. The burdened boat passes behind the privileged boat.
Boats going up and down a river have the privilege over boats
crossing the river. The illustration below depicts a situation in
which you are the boat in the center and you are the privileged
vessel. You must hold course and speed. All vessels approaching
your vessel from the directions depicted by the red vessels must
yield to your boat.
