If you see a red and white light on another vessel, you must...

  1. Stand on

  2. Signal your intentions

  3. Give way

  4. Stop immediately

The correct answer is: Give way

This is because a red and white light on another vessel indicates that they have the right of way and you must give way to avoid collision. Option A is incorrect because standing on would mean maintaining your course and speed, which could result in a collision. Option B is also incorrect because signaling your intentions does not ensure that you avoid collision. Option D is incorrect because stopping immediately could be dangerous and could still result in a collision. By giving way, you are following the rules of the sea to avoid a potential collision.
