"A power-driven vessel shall have her engines ready for immediate manoeuvre." This refers to the communication between the bridge and engine room on a large ship, the engines were controlled manually by the engineers in the engine room, the commands being sent via the bridge telegraph. The engineers would not man the controls whilst the ship is at sea unless they were put on standby to do so by the bridge. If you look on old ships telegraphs it has "stand by" and "finish with engines". If you asked for half ahead in the middle of the ocean, nothing would happen as the engineers would not respond to this signal. Having the engines ready for manoeuvre means the bridge should inform the engineers to stand by the engine room telegraph ready to control the engines. To get half ahead you first need to get the engineers attention by ringing stand by engines, then once they acknowledge return the telegraph to full ahead, then ring half ahead.
Minute 8:52 the wording is not correct "we need to apply rule 13". Rule 13 is in section 2, therefore is not applicable. Right, we can change course either side, but not according to Rule13.
the spirit of rule 13( overtaking) is applicable notwithstanding these rules and besides COLREG 1972 did not allow two meanings. Therefore, keeping out of the by either side is still overtaking.
What if a vessel proceeding in TSS in restricted visibility and a fishing vessel or sailing vessel crossing from starboard side? Do we need to follow rule 19 or rule 10 only?
This is very useful for my Day Skipper Theory which I am doing over three weekends just now.

exactly 👍

Hey where’s the day shape for a sailing vessel under power!! Triangle facing down.
Thank you ❤

In restricted visibility section 1 rules apply and section 2 rules do not apply. 👍
nicely explained
Think you need to review this clip as a few inconsistencies
