Answer:
1. The yellow boat is on starboard and has right of way under rule 10.
2. Yes. The beauty of life as the give-way boat is that all you have
to worry about is keeping clear
of right-of-way boats.
3. Probably. But under rule 16.1,
Starboard
must, in changing course, give Port room
to keep clear.
4. Again, it's a question of rule 16.1.
Here,
Starboard would likely be OK to bear off, especially if 286 is
correspondingly lifted. But if the boats were a bit closer to each
other, and 286 was already bearing away to pass astern of 10139, then -
as per rule 16.2 - Starboard
is not
allowed to make any course change that will require immediate extra
avoiding action from Port.
