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.
When a sailboat overtakes a powerboat, the powerboat is the stand-on vessel. (Ref: SB-29)

When a sailboat overtakes a powerboat, the sailboat is the give-way vessel, and the powerboat is the stand-on vessel. According to the International Regulations for Preventing Collisions at Sea (COLREGs), the overtaking vessel must keep clear of the vessel being overtaken. Therefore, the powerboat has the right of way in this situation.
