Boating Tips...
■OAT ON TH* BIOMT HAS
THC RIOHT Of WAY
WHIN MUTING HIAO ON, FISHING (OATS AREN'T
BOTH BOATS TURN RIOHT ALLOWED TO OBSTRUCT TRAFF.C
CRAFT BEING OVERTAKEN
HAS THE RIGHT OF WAY
KEEP TO THE RIGHT. ESPECIALLY
IN NARROW CHANNELS
Knowing the rules of the road is vital for safe and competent
small boat handling. Since they are based on common sense, these
rules are easy to learn and remember. Mercury boating author..ics
say the following are among the most important: keep : :he
right in narrow channels and when meeting another craft head
on. And "commit” yourself early by turning off a collision course
when there is still considerable distance between your boat and
an oncoming one. Give way to any boat approaching in your
danger zone—your right-hand side from dead ahead to slightly
more than a right angle. Sailboats have right away over power
boats. Craft being overtaken and boats leaving docks also have
the right of way. Observing these rules will enable you to meet
any water-borne traffic situation with confidence.
