All questions
Mandatory direction

B.3b requires a vessel to keep to the starboard side of the fairway. Which response follows the exact instruction?

Short answer

Move early, remain on the directed side and continue proper lookout

B.3 means keep to the named side, unlike B.2 move to or B.4 cross towards that side. Compliance should be early and observable while lookout and collision avoidance continue. Revisit Mandatory Direction, Speed and Communication.
