Скачать или смотреть How to OVERTAKE

An overtake like this will happen in a small area where the boat in front of you is taking up a lot of the channel and you want to make sure he knows that you are going to pass. But since this is South Florida, it happens a lot to where the boater does not have the radio on and you cannot get in touch with them. So, you have to blow the horn. But those horns mean something. To pass by altering your course to starboard, you will blow one short blast, which is one second. Then alter your course to stbd and pass him. To pass him by altering to port, you can blow two short blasts. Now this person probably won’t know what that is, so he will probably start cussing at you for honking at him so be aware of that.
