(1)

The master of a small vessel which is not confined to a fairway shall not make use of the fairway so as to cause obstruction to other vessels which can navigate only within the fairway; and when navigating across a fairway or through an entrance to the inner harbour, he shall do so by the shortest possible route that will avoid such obstruction.

(2)

The master of a small vessel shall not hamper the safe passage of any vessel greater than 20 metres in length which is in, entering or leaving a fairway or which is under way within the inner harbour.
