Manual contents

Navigation rules deserve more than slogans. This manual starts with a map of the regulations: where definitions appear, which parts cover lights and signals and how to read a rule or annex reference. Portuguese uses RIEAM; English uses COLREGs. Sources retain their edition, authority and consultation date. Application and procedure chapters advance through documented qualified review. Learn to locate a subject from the outset while distinguishing an educational summary from regulation text or a decision in a real encounter.
