I posted this in several forums, and in one it was pointed out to me there
was an error in my post. In USCG regulated waters you are supposed to
overtake on the right and give a blast on the horn before overtaking. My
mistake in saying the person was overtaking on the wrong side except I
think
in inland waters where traffic is counter clockwise you are supposed to
overtake on the left. I'm not 100% certain on this since most folks
overtake and pass on the left around here. Its been over 20 years since I
took my USCG Aux small craft certification. I suppose we could all use a
refresher course.

I'm probably wrong, but I overtake on whatever side has the most room and is
most safe to do so.
