SEAMANSHIP CH. 8 NAVRULES
The study material for this chapter should
include the USCG Auxiliary Student Study Guide,
the chapter on NAVIGATION RULES in CHAPMANs
Piloting, Seamanship and Small Boat Handling and
THE USCG PUBLICATION COMDTINST M16672.2C,
NAVIGATION RULES, INTERNATIONAL AND INLAND and
this Power Point Presentation. The study
questions and those on the final examination are
covered in the study materials noted above.

72 COLREGS

• An acronym for COLLISION REGULATIONS.
• TWO sets International and Inland
• Inland separated from International by
  DEMARCATION lines printed right on the navigation
  charts.
• WHERE THEY APPLY
• International rules apply To ALL vessels on the
  high seas and in all waters connected therewith
  NAVIGABLE BY SEAGOING VESSELS.
• The COLREGS were set by convention in 1972,
  subject to continual amendments.

4
COLREGS, Contd
Further, these rules shall NOT interfere with
special rules made by an appropriate authority. A
proper authority in the U.S. would be the
USCG. NOTE There is one other such set of
rules, called the INLAND Rules act of 1980.
5
RESPONSIBILITY

• KNOWN AS THE RULE OF GOOD SEAMANSHIP AND THE
• GENERAL PRUDENTIAL RULE
• Nothing in these rules shall exonerate any
  vessel, owner, captain or crew from penalty for
  the neglect of complying with the rules, or by
  the ordinary practice of good seamanship or by
  the SPECIAL CIRCUMSTANCES of the case
• In following the rules, due regard SHALL be given
  to all dangers of navigation and collision and to
  any SPECIAL CIRCUMSTANCES,WHICH MAY MAKE A
  DEPARTURE FROM THESE RULES NECESSARY TO AVOID
  IMMEDIATE DANGER.

6
SPECIAL CIRCUMSTANCES
Special Circumstances are considered situations
NOT COVERED BY THE RULES. Since MEETING, CROSSING
and OVERTAKING rules are designed for ONLY TWO
vessels interacting, THREE VESSELS COMING
TOGETHER IS CONSIDERED A SPECIAL
CIRCUMSTANCE. When more than two vessels
interact, it becomes a SPECIAL CIRCUMSTANCE
7
PURPOSE OF THE RULES
The sole purpose of this set of rules is TO
PREVENT COLLISIONS! Period. COLLISIONS WITH
ANYTHING! If your actions in any situation
produce a collision between your vessel, and
ANYTHING, INCLUDING THE BOTTOM, you have broken
the rules and are subject to punishment! ADMIRALIT
Y LAW Some cases are tried in Admiralty Court
where the justice system, unlike our civil and
criminal courts which allow for a pleaDOES NOT
PROVIDE FOR A PLEA. In Admiralty Court, you are
presumed guilty as charged. The only reason you
are there is to find out what the punishment will
be. Mitigating circumstances are allowed to be
argued but you are still GUILTY AS CHARGED.
8
DEFINITIONSA POINT

• There are 32 points on the compass.
• There are 360 degrees on the compass.
• 1 POINT 360/32 11.25 degrees
• The terminology of POINTS has its roots deep in
  the sailors language and is continued today. The
  term POINT is very useful in communicating in
  terms of the navigation and operations language
  onboard a vessel.

9
DEFINITIONSSHALL and SHOULD
The naval services, including the U.S. Coast
Guard have agreed by convention and documentation
on the following interpretation(s) SHALL is a
COMMAND. There is no alternative. SHOULD is a
SUGGESTION and alternatives are available. These
interpretations and definitions are made a part
of the laws governing vessels on the seas of all
signing countries.
10
LIGHT DEFINITIONS Rule 21MASTHEAD LIGHT
A segmented white light, visible from dead ahead
to 2 points abaft the beam on each side or for
112.5 degrees on each side, from dead ahead, for
a total of 225 deg. It is always displayed
foreword and as high as practical, preferably on
a mast . The dark portion is ALWAYS FACING AFT.
11
LIGHT DEFINITIONS RULE 21SIDE LIGHTS
COLORED RED OR Green. RED is for PORT (Port
Wine) side GREEN is for starboard. Visible from
dead ahead to 112.5 degrees only each
light. Vessels of less than 20 meters may combine
the two into one lantern on the centerline such
as on the bow or breasthook of the boat. They are
displayed on the bow when combined or generally
near the foreword quarter on each side.
12
LIGHT DEFINITIONS RULE 21STERNLIGHT
A segmented white light pointed dead astern,
inline with the keel and visible over an arc of
135 degrees facing dead aft 67.5 degrees either
side of the keel line. Dark side facing forward.
13
LIGHT DEFINITIONSTOWING LIGHT
Exactly the same as the stern light, except that
it is YELLOW. It is displayed OVER the stern
light and indicates TOWING ON A HAWSERFROM THE
REAR OF THE TOWBOAT). HINT( Yellow over white, my
hawsers tight) (Towing Hawser/cable)
14
LIGHT DEFINITINS RULE 21ALL ROUND LIGHT
Any light that is visible through the complete,
unbroken, 360 degree circle. Generally white,
green, red or yellow.
15
LIGHT DEFINITIONS RULE 21FLASHING LIGHT
Machinegun fast at 2 per second or 120 per
minute. When assigned to a HOVER CRAFT or
HYDROFOIL, the color is AMBER or YELLOW.

GIVE WAY VESSEL
NOTE THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS RIGHT OF
WAY ANYMORE. ONLY STAND-ON AND GIVE-WAY! Some
older texts continue to occasionally use the tem
right of way. The designated GIVE - WAY vessel
SHALL take early and substantial action to KEEP
CLEAR. She should NOT cross the bow of the Stand
ON vessel, nor create another close quarters
situation by turning towards the S.O. vessel.
18
STAND - ON VESSEL
When one vessel must give way, the other vessel
MUST HOLD COURSE and SPEED( unless operating
under Rule 8) The S.O. Vessel may take action to
avoid collision as soon as it is apparent to her
that the give-way vessel is not taking proper
action to do so. When vessels are so close that
action by the give-way vessel alone will not
avoid a collision, the other vessel must act to
do so. Action by the stand-on vessel to avoid a
collision does not relieve the give-way vessel of
her obligation to keep out of the way.
19
GIVE WAY VESSELS DANGER ZONE
20
DEFINITIONS

• POWER DRIVEN VESSEL Propelled by MACHINERY.
• UNDERWAY Not anchored, aground or made fast to
  shore.
• SHORT BLAST 1 second symbol ?
• PROLONGED BLAST 4 - 6 seconds symbol

• SAILING VESSEL Propelled by SAIL ONLY
• SAFE SPEED Depends on a number of ingredients
  visibility, traffic, your maneuverability, wind,
  sea, current, etc.

21
DEFINITIONS CONTd

• VESSEL Includes every description of water craft
  used as a means of transportation on the water,
  including Hovercraft, Hydrofoils, Seaplanes and
  barges.
• POWER DRIVEN VESSEL Any vessel propelled by
  machinery.
• COMPOSITE UNIT Special built two-part hull, when
  joined by hydraulic rams, is considered a motor
  vessel rather than a towing vessel. Acts unto
  the waves as one.
• SAILBOAT Any vessel under sail provided that
  propelling machinery, if fitted, is NOT being
  used.

22
DEFINITIONS CONTdSEVEN CLASSES OF VESSELS

• NUC Vessel Not Under Command. Due to some
  exceptional circumstance, cannot maneuver
  according to the rules. Unable
• to keep out of the way. Highest priority of
  AVOID.
• RAM Restricted in Ability to Maneuver due to
  nature of her work. Unable to keep out of way of
  other vessels. Next highest order of AVOID.
• CBD Constrained By Draft. Cannot maneuver out of
  the way because of insufficient water Needs their
  half of channel in the middle! This designation
  exists ONLY in Inland rules. NOT in International
  rules,

23
SEVEN CLASSES OF VESSELS CONTd
4. FISHING VESSEL Engaged in fishing with nets,
lines, trawling, or other apparatus restricting
her maneuvering ability. 5. SAILBOAT Sail only
no power on. 6. POWER BOAT Propelled by
machinery 7. SUBMARINES, HOVERCRAFT in the
displacement mode, SEAPLANES, etc. Just remember
New Reels Catch Fish So Purchase Some. Also known
as the General PECKING ORDER or order of
precedence.
24
LOOKOUT RULE
DEFINITION A person assigned to do NOTHING
except be an extra set of eyes for the captain.(
NO EXCEPTIONS) RULE Every vessel is required to
maintain a PROPER lookout at all times using
eyes/ears and any other means available. If a
collision occurs, the Lookout was IMPROPER! No
exceptions!
25
RISK OF COLLISION
EVERY vessel SHALL use every means, including
radar and lookout, to help in determining if
there is a risk of collision. IF THERE IS EVER
ANY DOUBT, THEN THERE IS A RISK. If there was a
collision, there must have been a risk! A risk
exists if the bearing of an approaching vessel
does not appreciably change. In cases of large
vessels or vessels close by even a large bearing
change does NOT guarantee that there is no risk
of collision.
26
ACTION TO AVOID COLLISION
Action SHALL be positive and made in AMPLE TIME.
Any alteration of course or speed to avoid
collision SHALL be large enough to be understood
by another vessel observing visually or by radar.
Small course and speed changes should be avoided
for that reason. Any action to avoid a collision
MUST NOT result in another close quarters
situation.Close quarter situations should always
be avoided. Perhaps a course change alone will
do. This rule allows a stand-on vessel to
consider the hazards of holding course and speed.
However, if the SO departs, they are still liable
for breaking the rule of NOT holding course and
speed. You get to explain what happened!
27
POWER VESSELS LIGHTS UNDERWAY
STANDARD RUNNING LIGHTS. SIDE LIGHTS AND STERN
LIGHT. Vessels less than 12M may, instead of
other lights, exhibit an all-round white light
and side lights ( as most of the small boats you
see daily). The all round white light is really a
masthead light and the stern light, combined. The
7/7 rule Vessels less than 7 M in length with
max speeds of 7 kts. May show just an all round
white light and only if practicable, side lights.
28
ROW BOATS AND THE 7/7 RULE
A vessel under OARS, may exhibit the lights
prescribed in the rules for sailing vessels or
SHALL SHOW A LIGHTED LANTERN in sufficient time
to prevent a collision. Vessels less than 7
meters in length with a max attainable speed of 7
knots may show just one all round white light. If
practicable, side lights.
29
TOWING/PUSHING LIGHTS
Powerboat, when working as a tow or pushing One
additional masthead light. When towing a tow
greater than 200M( called a LONG TOW still
another additional MH light. A tow 200M or less
is called a SHORT TOW. There is no light for a
short tow. Example 120M tow boat with a 250M tow
behind 4 MH vertically Two MH lights for power
vessels more than 50M in length, 1 MH light for
working as a tow boat and 1 for towing a tow in
excess of 200 meters. Four is the maximum number
of masthead lights you will ever see.
30
TOWING/PUSHING LIGHTS
In addition to the Masthead and side lights,
power vessels towing on a hawser will show the
YELLOW TOWING LIGHT above the white stern light.
YELLOW OVER WHITE, MY HAWSERs TIGHT! When
PUSHING ahead or towing alongside, the white
sternlight is out and TWO YELLOW TOWING LIGHTS
will be shown, one over the other. YELLOW OVER
YELLOW, IM A PUSHING OR HIPTOWING FELLOW!
31
KINDS OF LIGHTS

• THERE ARE THREE KINDS OF NIGHT LIGHTS
• Running lights Tells the world you are underway
  and running side lights, stern light and
  masthead light.
• Working lights Tells the world how big you are
  and how you are working Masthead lights, towing
  lights
• Identification lights Tells the world who you
  are NUC, RAM, FISH, SAIL, etc.

32
IDENTIFICATION LIGHTS
PRIMARY COLORS RED, WHITE, GREEN. Flown from
As high on the foremast as possible or on a
yard. NUC Not Under Command RED OVER RED (The
Captains Dead) RAM RED OVER WHITE OVER RED. Do
Not Pass side Red over Red. Pass side Green over
Green. TRAWLER GREEN OVER WHITESHRIMPING AT
NIGHT FISH RED OVER WHITE FISING AT NIGHT PILOT
BOAT WHITE OVER RED PILOT AHEAD CBD THREE REDS
IN A ROW No room below SAIL RED OVER GREEN A
SAILING MACHINE
33
SOUND SIGNALS
Whenever it becomes necessary to signal another
vessel of your intended course changes or that
you are going to make them, they are communicated
by a WHISTLE, HORN OR LIGHT in a series of dots
and dashes. DOT one short blast by whistle or
light of one second duration DASH one PROLONGED
BLAST by whistle or light OF 4-6 SECOND
DURATION. NOTE there is no such thing as a
LONG BLAST! No matter where you hear it or who
says it!
34
SOUND and LIGHT SIGNALS
Vessels less than 12 meters do NOT REQUIRE either
a whistle or a bell, but this does NOT relieve
the vessel from having this equipment or some
other means of making an efficient sound
signal.
35
ACTION/WARNING SIGNALS

• One short blast You are going to
  turn your boat to your right
• ? ? Two short blastsYou are going to turn
  your boat to the left
• ? ? ? Three short blasts I AM
  OPERATING ASTERN PROPULSION
• ? ? ? ? ? Five or more short blasts The
  International DANGER or DOUBT signal.
• ??? Four Shorts Reserved for the PILOT BOAT
  ONLY! It says I am a PILOT BOAT Stay away!

?
36
HOW THEY ARE INTERPRETED
ONE SHORT BLAST (In sight of other vessel)
Inland Rules I INTEND TO LEAVE YOU ON MY PORT
SIDE. Requires CONSENT and REPLY. Same signal as
sent. International Rules ( OPEN WATER) I AM
ALTERING COURSE TO STARBOARD. No Reply or
consent required in open water. Clear the area
and GO! Note Draw a diagram of this maneuver.
Look at the maneuver relative to another boat and
the literal interpretation. Its just common
sense.
37
INTERPRETATION OF SOUND SIGNALS
SIGNAL TWO SHORT BLASTS INLAND WATERS I
INTEND TO LEAVE YOU ON MY STARBOARD SIDE. CONSENT
AND REPLY Same signal sent. INTERNATIONAL
WATERS I am altering course to Port. CONSENT AND
REPLY (None in open water) None Clear the area
and GO!
38
INTERPRETATION
THREE SHORTS I am operating ASTERN
PROPULSION. This is NOT an action signal and
requires no consent or reply. NOTICE Do not read
anything into this statement.This does NOT say he
is backing down or that he has specific motion of
any kind. Small boats react almost immediately to
power applications. Large vessels must overcome
inertia before they actually begin to move. It is
more apparent when a large vessel is in normal
cruise and then needs to stop. It may take
several to many hours of max power in astern
propulsion, for the large vessel to even begin to
slow down, much less stop.

41
MEETING CROSSING - OVERTAKING
Underway, a vessel is ALWAYS in one of three
configurations MEETING, CROSSING or
OVERTAKING MEETING BOW TO BOW.At night Both
side lights of the other vessel are
visible. CROSSING Only one side of other vessel
is in view. Nighttime, only one sidelight is in
view. OVERTAKING Approaching from more than 2
points abaft the beam, either side. Night lights
of the running lights, only the stern light of
the other vessel will be visible.

DANGER ZONE

• EVERY VESSEL HAS A DANGER ZONE WHICH EXTENDS FROM
  DEAD AHEAD TO 2 POINTS ABAFT THE BEAM ON THE
  STARBOARD SIDE ONLY.
• ANY VESSEL ENTERING YOUR DANGER ZONE, no matter
  how, AUTOMATICALLY BECOMES THE STANDON VESSEL..
  While such, he must hold his course and speed at
  all times.
• At the same time, your vessel automatically
  becomes the GIVEWAY VESSEL and must stay out of
  the way of the STAND ON vessel at all times.
• The STAND ON GIVE WAY situation results from
  VESSEL INTERACTION with other
  vessels only.

48
ANCHORED SIGNALS IN FOG

• Vessels less than 100 meters Rapid ringing of
  the Bell for 5 seconds.
• Vessels 100 meters or more Rapid ringing of the
  Bell forward, then rapid sounding of the GONG
  from the aft. Each for 5 seconds.
• Signals to be repeated in intervals of NOT LESS
  THAN one minute.
• Can supplement regular sound signal with SHORT
  PROLONGED SHORT BLASTS Which say..ships
  position stationary!
• For the PILOT BOAT four shorts AFTER THE BELL
  SIGNALS.

49
AGROUND SIGNALS IN FOG
SAME SIGNALS AS ANCHORED, EXCEPT ADD THREE STRONG
CLAPS ON THE BELL BEFORE AND AFTER THE RAPID
RINGING OF THE BELL. The three strong claps on
the bell DO NOT go with the GONGOnly on the
Bell! Sound the GONG the same as if you were
anchored. Repeat interval is also NOT LESS THAN
one minute. SPECIAL NOTE Care must be taken NOT
to sound a bell too frequently, so as to make it
sound like a continuous signal. ANY CONTINUOUS
SOUND SIGNAL IS CONSIDERED TO BE AN INTERNATIONAL
DISTRESS SIGNAL.
