The sailboat operator is the stand-on vessel so they should keep their course and speed while the PWC is the give-away vessel so it should change course and speed.
Keep clear... The power driven vessel should, if possible, maintain course and speed. The only rule for overtaking is that you keep your distance while overtaking
A bell ringing rapidly for 5 seconds every minute is the signal for a vessel at anchor in restricted visibility.
When there is a danger of collision, the "stand-on" vessel is the one that must maintain its course while the other must take avoiding action. Sailboats usually are the stand-on vessel when meeting a power-driven vessel, even if that vessel is another sailboat (if its engine is powering the boat, and regardless of whether its sails are raised or not). There are exceptions: if the power-driven vessel is "working," such as a fishing boat dragging nets, or the power-driven vessel is confined to a narrow channel due to its draft, then the sailboat must stay out of the way, by altering course if necessary. If a collision is imminent and the other vessel shows no signs of altering course, then the sailboat should take whatever course is necessary to avoid it.
Keep your vessel at five knots or less while in the channel.
On the dock and away from the vessel.
no, they don't

There are many solutions for setting your alarm away from home. Many of the home security companies have apps for computers and smart phones that allow you to set your alarm while on the go.
It is important to have an alert alarm in addition to a home burglar alarm. While a burglar alarm is used in instances of home invasion, an Alert Alarm is a vital, life saving alarm used in case of medical emergencies.
The meanings together I do not know. But an anchor means safety, hope, and salvation; while the ship's wheel is a constant change and looking for somewhere to drop anchor.
No - that would defeat the object of having an alarm in the first place !
