Disclaimer ! The Rules presented in this program are an overview of summarized versions of the Inland Navigation Rules. ! This program should not be considered a substitute for a complete version of the entire Inland Navigation Rules. ! The summarized rules in this program could be interpreted differently than the complete rules of the Inland Navigation Rules.
Application of Rules (Rules 1, 4, 11, 19 a) ! These Rules (1 -38) apply to all vessels upon the inland waters of the U. S. and to U. S. vessels on Canadian waters of the Great Lakes. # 1 -3 General Rules # 4 -19 Steering and Sailing Rules ! 4 -10 apply in any condition of visibility ! 11 -18 apply to vessels in sight of one another ! 19 apply to vessels in restricted visibility # 20 -31 Lights and Shapes # 32 -37 Sound and Light Signals # 38 Exemptions
Responsibility (Rule 2) ! Nothing in these rules shall exonerate any vessel, operator or owner from the consequences of: # neglect to comply with these rules # neglect of any required precaution # special circumstances of the case ! In complying with these rules due regard shall be had to all dangers of navigation and collision and to any special circumstances, including the limits of the vessels involved, which may make a departure from these rules necessary to avoid immediate danger.
General Definitions (Rule 3) ! Vessel - every description of watercraft capable of being used for transportation on the water ! Power-driven vessel - any vessel propelled by machinery. ! Sailing vessel - any vessel under sail provided any propelling machinery is not being used. ! Underway - not at anchor, made fast to shore or aground. ! Inland Waters – navigable waters of the U. S. shoreward of the demarcation lines dividing the high seas from harbors and other inland waters.
Important Terms ! These terms are defined in detail by Rules 16 and 17 ! Give-way - a term used for the vessel which is directed by rule to keep out of the way. ! Stand-on - a term used for the vessel which is directed by rule to keep its course and speed. # May take action if apparent other vessel is not taking appropriate action # Shall take action if necessary to avoid collision
Application of Rules (Rule 4) ! Rules in this part apply in any condition of visibility. # “This part” refers to Steering and Sailing Rules 4 -19
Proper Look-Out Required (Rule 5) ! Every vessel shall at all times maintain a proper look-out by sight and hearing as well as by all available means appropriate in the prevailing circumstances and conditions to make a full appraisal of the situation and of risk of collision.
Safe Speed (Rule 6) ! Every vessel shall proceed at a safe speed so that it can take proper and effective action to avoid collision and be stopped within a distance appropriate to the prevailing circumstances and conditions.
Safe Speed (Rule 6) ! In determining a safe speed the following factors shall be taken into account: # Visibility # Traffic density # Maneuverability including stopping distance and turning ability in the prevailing conditions # At night the presence of background light # Wind, sea, current, and proximity of hazards # Draft in relation to depth of water ! Additional factors for vessels with radar.
Risk of Collision (Rule 7) ! Every vessel shall use all available means appropriate to the prevailing circumstances and conditions to determine if risk of collision exists. If there is any doubt, such risk shall exist. ! Proper use shall be made of radar equipment if fitted and operational, to obtain early warning of risk of collision. ! Assumptions shall not be made.
Risk of Collision (Rule 7) RELATIVE BEARING (Angle to other vessels) DOES NOT CHANGE ! In determining if risk of collision exists: Such risk shall exist if the compass bearing of an approaching vessel does not appreciably change.
Risk of Collision RELATIVE BEARINGS CHANGING ! Close quarters situation less likely. Risk of collision may not exist, but assumptions should not be made.
Risk of Collision (Rule 7) ! In determining if risk of collision exists: Such risk may exist even when a bearing change is evident, particularly when approaching a very large vessel or a vessel at close range.
Action to Avoid Collision (Rule 8) ! Action taken to avoid collision shall be positive, made in ample time and with regard to good seamanship. ! Alteration of course or speed shall be large enough to be readily apparent to another vessel. ! Alteration of course alone may be the most effective action to avoid a close-quarters situation if made in good time.
Action to Avoid Collision (Rule 8) ! Action taken shall result in passing at a safe distance. ! If necessary, a vessel shall slacken speed or take all way off by stopping or reversing means of propulsion.

Narrow Channels (Rule 9) ! A vessel engaged in fishing shall not impede passage of any other vessel navigating within a narrow channel.
Narrow Channels (Rule 9) ! A vessel shall not cross a narrow channel if such crossing impedes passage of a vessel that can safely navigate only within a channel. 1 3 5 2 4 6 7 8
Narrow Channels (Rule 9) ! An overtaking vessel shall indicate its intention by sounding the appropriate signal and take steps to permit safe passing. The overtaken vessel sounds same signal if in agreement. 1 3 5 7 TOOT 2 4 6 8
Narrow Channels (Rule 9) ! A vessel nearing a bend or an area where vessels may be obscured by an obstruction shall navigate with particular alertness and caution and sound appropriate signals. 5 3 TOOOOT 6 TOOOOT 4 7 1 2 8

Application of Rules (Rule 11) ! Rules in this part apply to vessels in sight of one another. # “This part” refers to Steering and Sailing Rules 11 -18
Sailing Vessels (Rule 12) ! When two sailing vessels are approaching, one of them shall keep out of the way as follows: WIND DIRECTION PORT STARBOARD GIVE-WAY STAND-ON ! When each has the wind on a different side, the vessel with the wind on the port side shall keep out of the way.
Sailing Vessels (Rule 12) ! When both have the wind on the same side, the vessel which is to windward (upwind) shall keep out of the way of the vessel which is to leeward (downwind). WIND DIRECTION PORT GIVE-WAY WINDWARD PORT STAND-ON LEEWARD

Action by Stand-On Vessel (Rule 17) ! Where one of two vessels is to keep out of the way, the other shall keep its course and speed. ! The stand-on vessel may take action as soon as it becomes apparent the give-way vessel is not taking appropriate action. # A power-driven vessel which takes action with another power vessel shall not alter course to port for a vessel on its own port side. ! When the stand-on vessel finds itself so close that collision cannot be avoided by the give-way vessel alone, it shall take action to avoid collision.
Definitions (Rule 3) ! Vessel not under command - a vessel which through some exceptional circumstance is unable to maneuver as required by these rules and is therefore unable to keep out of the way. ! Vessel restricted in its ability to maneuver - a vessel by nature of its work is restricted in its ability to maneuver as required by these rules and therefore unable to keep out of the way. ! Vessel engaged in fishing - any vessel fishing with nets, lines, trawls, etc. which restricts maneuverability but does not include vessels engaged in recreational fishing.

Conduct in Restricted Visibility (Rule 19) ! This rule applies to vessels not in sight of one another when in or near an area of restricted visibility. ! Every vessel shall proceed at a safe speed adapted to the conditions. Power vessels shall have engines ready for immediate maneuver. ! Every vessel shall have due regard to the prevailing conditions when complying with navigation rules.
Conduct in Restricted Visibility (Rule 19) ! A vessel which detects another vessel by radar shall determine if risk of collision exists. If so, it shall take avoiding action. ! Every vessel which hears the fog signal of another shall reduce speed to the minimum at which it can be kept on course. It shall if necessary take all way off and, in any event, navigate with extreme caution.
