COLREG

COLREG, or the International Regulations for Preventing Collisions at Sea, is a set of rules established by the International Maritime Organization to ensure safe navigation on the water. These regulations guide vessels in various situations, helping them understand their responsibilities to avoid collisions. They cover aspects such as right-of-way, signaling intentions, and safe speeds, applicable to all types of vessels, from large ships to small boats. By following these rules, mariners promote safety and cooperation on waterways, protecting lives and property at sea.
