Yyou are aboard the stand-on vessel in a crossing situation.
You sound one blast whistle signal. The give-way vessel
answers with a two blast whistle signal. You should sound
the danger signal and

A. maintain course and speed as you are the stand on vessel
B. come around sharply to port
C. take precautionary action until a safe passing agreement
is made
D. maneuver around the stern of the other vessel



I would say either A or D depending on how close & how fast the vessels
are moving. The question gives no info as to whether it would be better to
turn stbd or port, and "take precautionary action until" is
bureaucratic-sounding useless twaddle.
