When your vessel is being passed (overtaken) by another vessel

When your vessel is being overtaken by another vessel, you are required to maintain your speed and direction. This is important because the vessel that is overtaking is responsible for safely passing you. By keeping your speed and direction steady, you help the overtaking vessel determine how to navigate around you safely, preventing collisions and ensuring a smooth passage for both vessels. Always stay alert and communicate if necessary!
