Yes, it's the same here. A "vessel propelled by machinery" gives way
to one under sail, even if they both have masts & sails

I have, not a lot but often enough.

The meaning of this is that you have to assume the other boat is
sailing, even if you suspect its propelled by machinery.


True.

The funny thing is that a lot of sailboaters (I use the term to
differentiate them from "sailors") who assume that any sailboat, even
when under power, has ROW over any motorboat. It's also amusing to see
people assume that being on autopilot gives them ROW.
