OOPS ....Forgot one:

What if the sailboat comes out of the fog (and can see the motor vessel) and
finds itself overtaking the motor vessel, because the motor vessel has reduced
speed to bare steerageway?

That's why you are and probably always will be, an amateur, Donal.
Anyone with any experience and common sense would have learned to expect

slight the chances.

It is very refreshing to see that you acknowledge that a motor vessel
reducing it's speed to bare steerageway would be "unexpected".
