In maritime terms, "underway" refers to a vessel that is not at anchor, made fast to the shore, or aground, meaning it is currently in motion or has the ability to move. A ship is considered underway when it is navigating through the water, regardless of its speed. This status is crucial for determining the rules of navigation and right-of-way at sea.
