ColreGs violation and ais wrongly set up

Own vessel: speed 10 knots, course over ground 242 degrees, ship's head 235 degrees.

Other vessel: approximately, bearing 65 degrees off the port bow and steady, speed nine knots, heading 282 degrees.

Prevailing environmental conditions: wind 45 kts, direction 140 degrees, visibility three to four nm, swell/sea five metres.

Bearing of the other vessel was steady from approximately 17:30, with an ARPA closest point of approach (CPA) of 0.3 nm, and a bow cross range of 0.34 nm. Time to closest point of approach (TCPA) about 43 minutes. We called the vessel on VHF 16, as to determine its intentions. No response was heard and no alteration noted. Our sound signalling equipment was not used due to the weather conditions. At a distance of 1.5 nm, we made a bold alteration of course to starboard, to ensure our intention was obvious to the approaching vessel, and to avoid a close quarters situation.

The other vessel continued to maintain her course and speed. Eventually, we let the other vessel pass clear at a distance of 1.2 nm, and then we resumed our original course.

It was also noted by the bridge team that the AIS data from the rogue vessel was evidently wrong and misleading.
