A little sailboat with no motor is on the starboard tack catching up
with another
little sailboat with no motor on the starboard tack. The one catching up
is going
on a course of 180 degrees. The one getting caught is going 208 degrees.

Which one has to change course if it looks like they're going to hit
each other?

Cheers,
