Rules Of The Road

2-1

NAVIGATION RULES DEFINED

The Navigation Rules set forth actions to be followed by boats to avoid

collision. They are referred to as the “Rules of the Road”. There are

two main parts referred to as the inland and international rules. The

inland rules apply to vessels operating inside the boundaries of the

United States. The international rules referred to as72 COLREGS

apply to vessels operating on the high seas and all connected waters

outside the established demarcation boundaries. Most navigational

charts show the demarcation lines by red dotted lines and are published

in the navigation rules. Remember to consult state and local agencies

since areas such as “no wake zones” , swimming beaches, “diver down

ﬂ ag” and inland landlocked lakes fall under their jurisdiction. This

section is only an introduction to the “rules of the road”. We strongly

recommend additional training before getting behind the “wheel” of

your boat.
