Section: Under Any Condition of Visibility | Collision Regulations 100

Section outline

Within the Collision Regulations (COLREGS), Part B Section I deals with rules that apply under any condition of visibility. These are Rule 4 through Rule 10. They must be adhered to at all times when on the water. These rules are emphasized further within Rule 19 on manoeuvring in restricted visibility, since that can be a particularly perilous time.

You should read the appropriate COLREGS for yourself. Follow the link below to see some aspects that are more relevant to operating SAR vessels on the lower BC coast.

Next there is a link to a section on "Risk of Collision". This is followed by a short section on the use of radar, a sensor that is of particular value in assessing the risk of collision.

Below that link, you will see another link to a short quiz to check your familiarity with the rules for any condition of visibility.
