Scenario briefing

Daylight + NIGHT consideration. A vessel proceeds under SAIL and at the same time is being propelled by MACHINERY. What signal identifies this dual propulsion? (Rule 25(e))

Applicable COLREG rule(s)

Rule 25(e) — referenced in this scenario. Practising this scenario reinforces correct application under realistic time pressure.

Why it matters

COLREG knowledge is the foundation of safe ship handling. Most maritime collisions happen because watchkeepers either misidentified the situation, applied the wrong rule, or acted too late. This scenario lets you train pattern recognition + correct response under time pressure — the exact skill the rules are designed to support. RYA, Yachtmaster, STCW and most national exams expect you to apply COLREGs reflexively, not just recite them.
