What should you do if another vessel is on your port side when paths cross?

Give way
Stand on
Slow down
Reverse

The correct answer is: Stand on

If another vessel is on your port side when paths cross, it means that the other vessel has the right of way. This means that you should stand on and allow the other vessel to pass first. Giving way or slowing down may result in confusion and potentially a collision. Reversing would also be an incorrect action to take as it may cause further confusion and potentially create a dangerous situation. Therefore, the correct course of action is to stand on and wait for the other vessel to pass.
