Chapter 3
An overtaking boat is burdened, and is not the priveleged craft, enen
though it approaches the danger zone of the overtaken boat.
The overtaking boat first signals with a single blast if that boat desires to pass
on the starboard side of the boat ahead, or a double blast if passing to port.
The overtaken craft responds with the same signal if it is safe, or with the
danger signal (5 short blasts or more) if unsafe. The boat overtaking must not
pass unless the appropriate signals are sounded.
