Which vessels have the right-of-way over power-driven boats?

  1. Speedboats

  2. Yachts

  3. Rowboats, sailing vessels, and canoes

  4. Jet skis

The correct answer is: Rowboats, sailing vessels, and canoes

Rowboats, sailing vessels, and canoes have the right-of-way over power-driven boats. This is because these vessels are typically non-motorized and have limited maneuverability compared to power-driven boats. Speedboats and yachts may have more power and speed, but they are still considered power-driven boats and must yield to non-motorized vessels. Jet skis also fall under the category of power-driven boats and must yield to rowboats, sailing vessels, and canoes. Therefore, option A, B, and D are not correct.
