Examples

In the case below, the sailboat has its sails down and is using its engine - Rule 3 says it is a power-driven vessel and thus a powerboat. It is in a crossing situation with another power-driven vessel. The sailboat will see the red light side of the powerboat and so here from Rule 15 the sailboat must keep clear of the powerboat and it should avoid impeding the powerboat considering the position of the two boats in this image, the sailboat should avoid crossing in front of the powerboat. Discretion is left to the give-way skipper as to which way to turn to best avoid a close-quarters situation.
