get the hell out of my way

From the Coastguard Navigation website, and yes I have the Coastguard training:
Also, does not anybody else notice that the large yacht is not moving, either at anchor or drifting. if it was moving forward it would have went right through the smaller yacht and then passed right by.

Larger size alone does not dictate stand on or give way vessel. Restricted manuverability applys to tankers, sail boats, vessels actively fishing, etc, not to two powered vessels underway. The camera angle and lens may distort the relative sizes of the two vessels. The one to the R is not a small boat by any means ...
Agreed both patries contributed, but again, adherance to navigation rules would have prevented this incident all together.
