Author Topic: Requirement to yield to ferries? TolaMarts posted April 10, 2024 09:03 PM                   There is a discussion right now on one of the Puget Sound Facebook pages as to whether a sailboat is the stand-on vessel when encountering a ferry on a marked ferry route. COLREGS 10(J) says that "A vessel of less than 20 meters in length or a sailing vessel shall not impede the safe passage of a power-driven vessel following a traffic lane." Ferry lanes are not VTS lanes, are they? Note: I stay out of the way of ferries. But I'm wondering as to the "official" answer. David Burch posted April 11, 2024 07:53 AM                   Excellent question. Tied up at the moment, but will be back shortly. What is the link to the discussion you refer to? From: Starpath, Seattle, WA David Burch posted April 11, 2024 11:19 AM                   This link is a good summary: https://www.passagemaker.com/trawler-news/collision-avoidanc e-understanding-right-of-way-to-avoid-certain-disaster but since you are signed up for a course, I will move this topic to the Coastal Nav Student Discussion forum for more details as called for.
