No officer, I didn’t see the stop sign

Boats and ships usually have pretty good sight lines from the wheel deck to see anything far away, or anything close up that is at least as tall as the wheel deck

There’s an obvious height discrepancy between these two vessels, and it is entirely possible that the POV wheel deck literally couldn’t see the other one

I believe it’s generally considered standard practice for the smaller vessel to yield right-of-way
