Description: Modern day navigation is facilitated by sophisticated equipment, typically integrated into an electronic navigation system. This makes navigation comparatively an easy task as required information is just fingertips away. The information about the position, heading, detection, even identification and tracking of the target is instant and readily available. In spite of such aids , collisions do happen and present severe consequences. The risk of collision can not be ignored.
Similar to traffic rules on land, there are rules at sea to avoid collisions between vessels and other floating objects, in fact, these collision avoidance rules are also known as rules of the roads (ROR). When two moving vessels make an impact on each other, generally it is termed as collision whereas an impact between a vessel and a fixed object like a buoy is termed as allision, particularly in the US. Nevertheless, collision avoidance rules cover all such impact situations in a broad sense. These rules have been developed over the period of many years as the shipping evolved mainly from sailing days to giant ships propelled by machinery.
In order to appy the rules correctly, one has to identify the target and decide which vessel is give way vessel and which vessel is stand on vessel. The give way vessel is supposed to take action where as stand on vessel is required to maintain course and speed. However, the responsiblitites between vessels depens upon several factors such as condition of visiblity, type of vessels involved and other prevailing circumstances and conditions.
This work book is designed to cater the need of positive identification of vessels, which are mainly stated in PART C of COLREGs i.e. Lights and Shapes ( Rule 20-31). In addition , there are some annexes as well, particularly Annex I & II which need to studied to understand the positioning of lights and shapes , and also some aditional signals by fishing vessels.
For each type of vessel, the text of COLREGs is accompanied by short memeory aid and sketches to reniforce understanding. The text of COLREGs is given in italics for ease of recognition.
