| Rule 7(d) and 83.07(d) In determining if risk of collision exists the following considerations shall be among those taken into account: (i) such risk shall be deemed to exist if the compass bearing of an approaching vessel does not appreciably change; (ii) such risk may sometimes exist even when an appreciable bearing change is evident, particularly when approaching a very large vessel or a tow or when approaching a vessel at close range. |

| Bad question not enough info on B to make this an option. If I have appreciable bearing change to port for a vessel to my port then there is no risk of collision. Same if it was to stbd with stbd bearing change. |
