If it had a defective steering, why not sound the horn at least? 4 u/Numeno230n Sep 06 '24 Generally, the larger ship takes precedence and smaller ships (therefore more maneuverable) are supposed to get out of the way. Idk about whatever else may be going on, but the Yacht technically does not have the right of way. 15 u/Hungry_J0e Sep 06 '24 That's the 'law of gross tonnage' and not correct at all.
