BOTH INTERNATIONAL & INLAND Of the vessels listed, which must keep out of the way of all the others?
AI Explanation
The correct answer is D) A sailing vessel.
According to the International Regulations for Preventing Collisions at Sea (COLREGS), a sailing vessel must keep out of the way of all the other vessels listed, including a vessel not under command, a vessel engaged in fishing, and a vessel restricted in her ability to maneuver. This is because sailing vessels are considered the most maneuverable of the vessels listed and, therefore, have the responsibility to avoid collision.
The other options are incorrect because vessels not under command, vessels engaged in fishing, and vessels restricted in their ability to maneuver have different collision avoidance responsibilities under the COLREGS, and they do not have the same obligation to keep out of the way of all the other vessels.
