Opposite tacks: who gives way? COLREGs Rule 12

Two sailing yachts are converging. One has the wind on the right side, the other on the left. Which one has to move? COLREGs Rule 12(a)(i): when two sailing vessels are on opposite tacks, the vessel on the port tack keeps out of the way of the other. Remember it like this: boom on the right, you give way. Forty seconds, in 3D: you can see the wind, the tack, the heel and the manoeuvre itself. The Give-way series: eight COLREGs rules, one rule per video.
