I may be mistaken since I am not sure of my (incomplete) knowledge of according rules, I know only about red and green position lights, port and starport.

The Russian was on the right side, which gives him the right of way then, according to ^. The American ship was faster, making it probably also claiming the right to go first. The wake in the second videos looks straight from both ships (the first vidoe cannot be seen in Germany).

Looks like a crossing situation to me, and both were thinking they must be the first making it over the finish line. And most important: don't blink while staring at the other's eyes.



If it were a car traffic situation at a crossroad, I would charge the American. The Russian only if there is evidence that there was no attempt made to brake and avoid a collision while there still was time.


Stupid form both sides in this siutation. I smell the scent of hormones in the air, plenty of testosterone. I have no tolerance for this kind of little boys playing big guys.

Both ships should have slighty evaded. Both captains are lucky I have no say in this. I would ruin both their days.
