Here is a question: In a marina, who has the right of way? I have a 480 Sedan Bridge...I was pulling out of my slip and proceeded to spin my boat 180 degrees and was backing down so I could do a starboard side docking against our fuel dock. As I was spinning, a 20ft CC came from their slip and wanted to pass me to exit our marina. The CC was trying to get between me and the dock (why I'm not sure). My first thought was 3 blasts to indicate I was backing down, the second was to ask him to stand down (which I did). Once up against the dock, my harbor master told me that the smaller vessel had the right of way as they were exiting the marina. Is this true? I wanted some guidance.
Thanks.
Thanks.
