Stus-List Colregs question for boats not in an organized race

A friend described a situation from the past weekend that I would like to pose to the collective brain trust on this list. There were three boats involved. All three were out day sailing. Two boats were travelling the same direction and the owners knew each other so they had an impromptu “rac

Re: Stus-List Colregs question for boats not in an organized race

In a port/starboard situation, the starboard boat must hold her course while the port boat must keep clear. There is no requirement for port to pass astern of starboard, only that she keep clear. If she could have passed in front of starboard without starboard having to change course, then she woul

Re: Stus-List Colregs question for boats not in an organized race

Under RRS a ROW (right of Way) boat is required to leave room for Keep Clear boat to avoid ROW. Below is from RRS 2017-20. Rule 10 was in play when you met since the other boat was on STBD Rule 11 would apply after their tack was completed Rule 13 was likely broken by the other boat. Also see rul

Re: Stus-List Colregs question for boats not in an organized race

This is my response, possibly wrong. S should not have altered coarse but may have been reacting to the close-quarters situation being forced by P as she is required to do by Corlegs Rule 17 (a) (ii), (b) & (d). To those not used to racing, a boat who intends to pass very close to the stern of ano

Stus-List Colregs question for boats not in an organized race

This can be a real issue between racers and never-racers. Forget racing, just imagine you are on starboard. You have never raced a boat in your life and you think being within 50 yards of another boat is very close. I have raced my whole life and think clearing your stern (or bow) by 12 inches i

Re: Stus-List 37+ Rudder Bearing

I'll second that. I have had the rudder out a couple times over the years, that parts is easy (when the boat is out of the water on its cradle). Never tried to replace the bearings though. I don't know if this will help, scroll down to the fourth drawing: https://c-c-37-40.blogspot.com/p/blog-pag

Re: Stus-List Colregs question for boats not in an organized race

Mike, The RoW term is legacy and obsolete. The “stand on” and “Give way” is there for a while now. And please note that the Colregs apply (there are no racing instructions in place, because there is no race). Interestingly, there was along discussion about that in SBO recently. The point that

Stus-List ColRegs

Both boats bear responsibility. My understanding of ColRegs and my interpretation of the story leads me believe that the “racer” acted irresponsibly by causing what appeared to be a possible collision. This caused the “S” boat to change course to attempt to avoid colliding. ColRegs clearly states t

Re: Stus-List CnC-List Digest, Vol 152, Issue 58

Tom, There is a lot of play in my rudder, and I think the lower bearing is in bad shape. The drawings from Ken should help a lot. It tells me what the bearings are mad of and what size. My biggest concern is getting the rudder quadrant off in one piece. There seems to be a lot of corrosion

Re: Stus-List Colregs question for boats not in an organized race

Interesting case. As an exercise, I looked it up in the Canadian Colregs (http://laws-lois.justice.gc.ca/PDF/C.R.C.,_c._1416.pdf ) before reading the other replies, to see whether I interpret the same way as others (I’ll read the other r
