Yes. If you were other than the novice you run around accusing others of
being,
you would know that a 36 foot sailboat with engine off, and a 36 powerboat

the motor off are equals in the pecking order.

Not necessarily, it depends why the powerboat engine is off. If the
engine is off because it is broken, then the powerboat is NUC, Not
Under Command, and should be displaying appropriate signals. If the
powerboat is NUC, the sailboat becomes the giveway vessel (assuming it
is underway and making way).

Huh? If the PB's engine's off, then how could it be anything but NUC unless
it's anchored or docked? It has no other means of propulsion. You can't even
steer if you don't have engine. Do you like to turn off your engine and
coast?
