• To slow down their speed

• To ensure a safe distance and avoid collisions

• To allow them to hit your boat

What should you do if you find yourself too close to another boat?

• Continue moving forward

• Bail out and reposition

• Speed up to pass them

• Stop immediately

What is the purpose of tacking over?

• To stop the boat

• To increase speed

• To move backward
