RYA Collision Regulations (eBook)

The International Regulations for Preventing Collisions at Sea (COLREGS) are vital for maritime safety as you must be able to identify vessels during the day by their special shapes, and at night time by their lights, as well as understanding both your obligations and those of other vessels as you interact with one another.

This edition provides a clear and authoritative explanation of each regulation. Illustrations have been enhanced to help any seafarer understand their responsibilities, ensuring everybody at sea is as safe as possible.

Chapters include:

• Assessing the Risk
• Who Gives Way?
• Restricted visibility
• Lights and Shapes
• Sound and Light Signals

In response to feedback, this edition has been restructured to lead customers through the regulations by rule order, split into themes (i.e. restricted visibility) with a view to helping readers quickly reference the content

The eBook version includes a new interactive 360° tool to allow readers to gain a more realistic view of how vessels will actually present in a wide variety of contexts, both by day and by night. There are 30 different 360° galleries comprising of more than 12,000 extra images.
