---------ABOUT THE VIDEO---------
This video was originally uploaded to our other channel, Casual Navigation, back in 2018.
An "in depth" look at Rule 18 of the International Regulations for Preventing Collisions at Sea, the COLREGS. The COLREGS are the rules of the road that vessels must obey at sea to avoid collisions.
Rule 18 details "Responsibilities Between Vessels". In this video I go into detail about each part of the rule and give examples of how to apply the rule at sea.
---------RULE 18---------
Rule 18: Responsibilities between vessels
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 manoeuvre;
iii. a vessel engaged in fishing;
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 manoeuvre;
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 manoeuvre.
(d)
i. Any vessel other than a vessel not under command or a vessel restricted in her ability to manoeuvre shall, if the circumstances of the case admit, avoid impeding the safe passage of a vessel constrained by her draught, exhibiting the signals in Rule 28.
ii. A vessel constrained by her draught 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.
(f)
i. A WIG craft shall, when taking off, landing and in flight near the surface, keep well clear of all other vessels and avoid impeding their navigation;
ii. A WIG craft operating on the water surface shall comply with the Rules of this Part as a power-driven vessel.

    At 4 minutes you initially confused the crap out of me! But after chewing on it it makes all makes sense. I think the example actually demonstrates a weakness in the colregs. A vessel with engine stuck in forward and rudder also stuck is imo not under command. Lets say all crew is also unconscious from gas inhalation just to prove the point: NUC. But moving. Colregs says she must take action, but we can see she is unable to comply. Your thoughts? Did i miss anything? I love this channel!

    Good day, so if we are PDV and we have let's say NUC vessel crossing from our port side we can easily alter to port? Because even if rule 17 says that we should not alter to port side - it is applied between two PDVs, but the NUC is a different status from PDV, correct?

    @@ashishkumarsahu599 rule 17c applies only to a stand on vessel when the give way vessel has not taken sufficient action to avoid a collision. At that stage turning to port would be a problem if the give way vessel did belatedly turn to starboard because it would create a head-on situation. In a crossing situation turning to port might often be the best action for the give way vessel.

    Thanks again for making these great videos although I was confused how the NUC vessel was able to move with regard to the overtaking rule. kzread.info/dash/bejne/lHl9p9FrYsybfLA.html. In my mind a NUC vessel is simply floating around with no crew on board, perhaps I misunderstand NUC?

    Sorry you've not had a reply, I've only just seen this. You are still unsure of this i may be able to help. A vessel that is Not Under Command (NUC) is defined as a vessel which due to some exceptional circumstances is unable to manoeuvre as required by these rules and is unable to keep out of the way of another vessel. So this would mean that the vessel may be suffering from steering failure or blackout... which is regarded as an exceptional circumstance. In terms of the overtaking rule, if the soon to be NUC was overtaking another vessel, but then became NUC, she would try any available means necessary to avoid collision, this could be using an anchor, or if the steering is still working, use that, or if steering is down but engines are ok, reverse thrust and slow down. In the real world what would happen is that the vessel which becomes NUC would issue out a pan pan on the vhf. This would be to notify all vessels in the surrounding areas of their situation. Hope this helps🙂

    If a risk of collition exist in min 06:00 the PDV Have to take action , if is not enough to reduce the speed of CBD and she can't change her course the PDV has to manouvre.. That's is right also if they stay in in rule 16 and 15. So Why PDV ASSUME that CBD can reduce her speed ? Did you get the Point? PDV HAS to keep distance for all.
