Please note that this rule has been modified in App D for VSK, so you don't have to respond "you tack", you just have to give room.
"the hailed boat shall respond either by tacking as soon as possible, respond by writing ‘you tack’ (‘YT’), or if she is able to, wait until the hailing boat begins her tacking maneuver and then giving the hailing boat room to tack and avoid her".

But he must write "YT"? or interpret the male?
