    Rule 18 - Responsibilities Between Vessels

    Uploaded by

    mitchsip
    Power-driven vessels, sailing vessels, and vessels engaged in fishing all have responsibilities to keep out of the way of vessels not under command, vessels restricted in their ability to maneuver, and each other in certain situations. Additionally, vessels that are not constrained by draft should avoid impeding deep-draft vessels displaying appropriate signals, and deep-draft vessels must navigate with caution due to their limitations. Seaplanes on the water should also keep clear of vessels but follow collision regulations if risk exists.

    Except where Rules 9, 10, and 13

    otherwise require:
    (a) A power-driven vessel underway shall keep
    out of the way of:
    (i) a vessel not under command;
    (ii) a vessel restricted in her ability
    to maneuver;
    (iii) a vessel engaged in fishing; and
    (iv) a sailing vessel.
    (b) A sailing vessel underway
    shall keep out of the way of:

    (i) a vessel not under command;


    (ii) a vessel restricted in her ability
    to maneuver; and
    (iii) a vessel engaged in fishing.
    (c) A vessel engaged in fishing when underway
    shall, so far as possible, keep out of the way of:

    (i) a vessel not under command;


    (ii) a vessel restricted in her
    ability to maneuver.
    (d)(i) A vessel other than a vessel not under
    command or a vessel restricted in her
    ability to maneuver shall, if the
    circumstances of the case admit, avoid
    impeding the safe passage of a vessel
    constrained by her draft, exhibiting the
    signals in Rule 28.
    (ii) A vessel constrained by her draft shall
    navigate with particular caution having full
    regard to her special condition.
    (e) A seaplane on the water
    shall, in general, keep well
    clear of all vessels and avoid
    impeding their navigation. In
    circumstances, however, where
    risk of collision exists, she
    shall comply with the Rules of
    this Part.
