If a powerboat is about to cross paths with a sailboat under sail give way, the sail boat is the stand-on vessel, therefore you are the give-way vessel and need to move accordingly.
Generally, vessels under sail power have the right of way.
A sailboat is considered the stand-on vessel when it is under sail and encountering a powerboat that is not under sail. In this scenario, the powerboat must give way to the sailboat, as sailing vessels generally have the right of way when they are on a collision course. However, if the sailboat is under power or if both vessels are sailing, different rules apply based on their respective points of sail. Always refer to the specific navigation rules for further clarity.
The powerboat should give way to the sailing vessel, as it is considered the stand-on vessel under the rules of navigation. The sailboat has the right of way since it is under sail. The powerboat should take action to avoid a collision by altering its course or speed, ensuring the safety of both vessels. It’s important for the powerboat operator to remain vigilant and communicate intentions if necessary.
Any sailing vessel that is operating mechanical propulsion is considered a power driven vessel under the rules of the road, and must maneuver accordingly. This is regardless of whether or not they also have a sail up.
The sailboat is considered the give-way vessel when it is overtaking another vessel, including a motorboat. According to the "Rules of the Road," a sailing vessel under sail must also give way to a power-driven vessel that is under way and not restricted in its ability to maneuver. Additionally, if the motorboat is on a direct collision course with the sailboat, the sailboat must give way to the motorboat.

A sailboat is typically considered the stand-on vessel relative to a powerboat when both vessels are approaching each other with the sailboat on a port tack, or when the powerboat is overtaking the sailboat. According to the "Rules of the Road," a sailboat under sail has the right of way over a powerboat that is under power. However, if the sailboat is not under sail and is using an engine, the powerboat may become the stand-on vessel. It's essential for both vessels to maintain a lookout and take action to avoid collisions.
The power-driven vessel should change course and speed.
