States Inland Navigational Rules and the International Rules. The United

States Inland Rules apply to all vessels inside the demarcation lines sepa-

rating inland and international waters. The U.S. Coast Guard lists the

traffic regulations in its publication 

“Navigational Rules, International-

Inland

.

 You can get a copy from your local U.S. Coast Guard Unit or the

United States Coast Guard Headquarters, 1300 E Street NW, Washington,

D.C. 20226.

Other helpful publications available from the U.S. Coast Guard include

“Aids to Navigation”

 (U.S. Coast Guard pamphlet #123), which explains

the significance of various lights and buoys; the 

“Boating Safety Training

Manual”

 and 

“Federal Requirements For Recreational Boats.”

 Check

with your local U.S. Coast Guard station, your Carver Dealer, or a local

marina about navigational aids unique to your area.

1.5.3  Documentation

The owner of a boat registered with the U.S. Coast Guard is issued a Cer-

tificate of Number. This certificate must be onboard whenever the boat is in

use. State registration is also required. If your boat has a VHF radio

onboard, an FCC license must also be displayed. Check with the U.S. Coast

Guard or your state regulatory agency to determine what other records are

required on your boat.

In addition to required documents, it is strongly recommended that you

maintain the following logs. Log books are available from maritime supply

stores.

• A navigation log containing engine speeds, compass courses and time

records, which are essential for both cruising and maintenance pur-

poses.

• A radio log, which is mandatory on vessels required to have a radio. A

radio log can be useful to record unusual events, especially for future

litigation.

• A maintenance log to track the type and frequency of maintenance

procedures performed on your boat and its systems. Refer to 

Section 7

for more information on maintaining your boat.

• An engine/fuel log, which is essential for calculating range and fuel

requirements.

• A GPS/Loran log if your boat contains this equipment.

1.5.4  Drugs and Alcohol

Drugs and alcohol adversely affect a person’s ability to make sound judg-

ments, react quickly and, in general, safely operate a boat. As a responsible
