    I hate when sail boats do that, but it happens.  I divert my course to avoid sailboats.  Unfortunately most sail vessels forget that when in a TSS they have to give way to vessels navigating in the TSS and that makes it a real pain in the Channel as well as restricted waters.
     
    You never know what a USN vessel is going to do, so I always give them a wide berth.

    Let me ask what would happen if I, in my 8-metre sailing craft, under sail,
    in open waters, happened to be crossing the path of a US Navy warship. In
    real-life, would that be a case where the officer would be allowed to
    diverge in order to avoid collision, if I was brave enoughto press on?
