BASIC RULES OF THE WATER Boat operation is governed by the International Regulations for the Prevention of Collisions at Sea 1972 (72
Colregs) and the 1980 U.S. Inland Navigation Rules (Inland Rules), also known as the Rules of the Road. You may also be responsible for any
local regulations (rules that elaborate on minor details of the Inland Rules). The boundaries between the 72 Colregs and the Inland Rules are
indicated by a dashed magenta line (demarcation lines) on your navigational charts. We have listed a portion of the Rules of the Road in this
manual.
MEETING HEAD-ON
Neither boat has the right-of-way in this situation. Both boats should decrease speed, should turn to the right, and pass port-to-port.
PRIVILEGED BOATS
Privileged boats have right-of-way and can hold course and speed. Sailboats and boats paddled or rowed have the right-of-way over motor
boats. Sailboats under power are considered motorboats. Small pleasure craft must yield
to large commercial boats in narrow channels. Use common sense when applying these
rules.
BURDENED BOATS
The burdened boat is the boat that must make whatever adjustments to course and
speed necessary to keep out of the way of the privileged boat.
