Read and understand the Collision Avoidance regulations, which are international.
The simplest rule on open water is that if you are crossing the course of another boat so that it seems there might be a collision, then if the other boat is on your starboard side (the right), you must do something to avoid a collision, which could be that you slow down or you might alter course to starboard. If you have the other boat on your port side (the left), you just have to carry on as normal.
A good test to check for the possibility of a collision is to watch the direction that the other boat is in, relative to you. If the direction does not change, you are on a collision course.
