In general, sailboats under sail are considered stand-on vessels when encountering powerboats. However, if a sailboat is operating its engine, it may be treated as a powerboat, which can affect its status in right-of-way situations. The rules of the road state that the vessel under sail has the right of way, but when the engine is running, the sailboat must also adhere to the navigation rules applicable to powered vessels. Always consult local navigation rules for specific regulations.
