When a motorboat approaches a sailboat head-on, the motorboat should give way to the sailboat. According to the maritime right-of-way rules, the motorboat is responsible for avoiding a collision and should maneuver to the right to pass the sailboat safely. The sailboat, being under sail, has the right of way in this situation. It's essential for both vessels to communicate clearly to ensure safe navigation.
