INTERNATIONAL ONLY Of the vessels listed, which must keep out of the way of all the others?
Official USCG Answer & Rule Citation
Correct Answer: Option A — A vessel on pilotage duty
COLREG Rule 18 outlines vessel priority. A vessel on pilotage duty possesses no special international status under the rules and therefore must keep out of the way of RAM, NUC, and draft-constrained vessels.
