I was involved with solving the seaplane problem in Victoria harbour. The end result was a dedicated landing, takeoff and taxing area that was essentially out of bounds for boats and kayakers. This was published as a pamphlet that was and is available to all water users. In the process of landing/takeoff the seaplane has priority over marine traffic. For clarification there is no reference anywhere in the collision regulations where the term "right of way" is used. You are either the burdened vessel (required to maneuver) or the privileged vessel (stand on unless the other vessel does not appear to be taking sufficient action to avoid a collision). Also the above only applies to a two vessel situation and also the give way vessel between sail boats, fishing vessels when fishing, not under command or engaged in operations that the vessel is unable to maneuver as required, ie dredging, survey. There are volumes written on these situations from court cases and legal precedents so the above is just a quick look at the situation. The regulations are available on line, at the very least have a read of them to familiarize yourself with them. I haven't covered all the information here so please don't bombard me with all sorts of exceptions or more technical issues, read and understand the rules as we all have to abide by them. End of lecture, thanks Tony.
