Risk of Collision

  • Every master should use all available means to establish if a risk of collision exists

  • Every master should assess if the compass bearing between both vessels remains steady or appreciably changes

  • If the bearing is appreciably changing a risk may exist if approaching a large vessel or tow at close range even

  • If there is doubt as to if a risk of collision exists then it must be assumed a risk does exist and take evasive action
