"Zeilboot" is a Dutch equivalent of "sailboat."

Generally, a sailboat tends to be bigger than a sailboard and smaller than a sailing ship. It tends to be powered mainly by sails. But what actually is meant by the term varies widely worldwide and even within countries.

When is a sailboat the give way vesselIf a sailboat and a motorboat are both underway when is the sailboat the give-way vessel?

A sailboat is the give-way vessel when it is overtaken by a motorboat, as the motorboat is required to keep clear of the sailboat. Additionally, if the sailboat is on a collision course with the motorboat and does not have the right of way, it must yield. In general, when two vessels are approaching each other, the sailboat should give way to the motorboat unless the sailboat is on a tack that gives it the right of way.
