Yes, overtaking boats must give way to the boats they are overtaking. According to the International Regulations for Preventing Collisions at Sea (COLREGs), a vessel that is overtaking another is considered to be the "give way" vessel. This rule ensures safe navigation and prevents collisions by allowing the overtaken vessel to maintain its course and speed.

The main rules are as follows:1. Avoid collisions at all cost (even if you've the right of way, you can be penalized for not doing everything possible to avoid a collision)2. Port boats give way to starboard. (boats with the sail on the right get out of the way of boats with their sail on the left)http://www.spinnaker-sailing.com/lessons/keelboat/port_vs_star.gif3.
