Subject: Rules of the Road Question #2
From: Jeff Morris
A. all vessels upon sighting another vessel rounding a bend
in a channel.
Actually, A is false for other reasons. In the "round the bend"
situation, you should toot before you see the other vessel - once you're
in sight, its just a passing. Actually, this doesn't even say that it
will be a passing - it just says "all vessels sighting". And it
specifies "all vessels"; only power driven vessels are required to
exchange signals in normal passing situation
I think the "key" here is that the "vessels" have sighted each other, along
with what you are saying.
