Powerboating
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Power boating describes activities performed in a motorized boat. Generally a power boat has a high power to weight ratio and a hull design that allows for easy planing which allows for higher speed and improved handling. Power boats are often used recreationally including waterskiing, wakeboarding and other similar activities.

When a sailboat overtakes a power boat?
When a sailboat overtakes a powerboat, it typically does so by maneuvering to gain speed and positioning itself ahead of the powerboat, often taking advantage of favorable wind conditions. The sailboat must ensure it maintains a safe distance and adheres to maritime navigation rules, which dictate that vessels under sail have the right of way over motorized vessels in certain situations. This interaction illustrates the dynamics of sailing and powerboating, highlighting the importance of awareness and communication on the water.
