'The only book of its kind on the market. Very clear and concise and will save hours of unnecessary reading.'Roger Seymour, Senior RYA Examiner, Hamble School of YachtingA practical and user-friendly guide to the collision regulations, with full interpretations of the rules and clear diagrams. A thorough understanding of the International Regulations for the Prevention of Collisions at Sea (ColRegs) is essential for a wide range of professionals as well as amateur mariners. In this handbook, expert marine training director Simon Jinks provides straightforward explanations of the complex situations that the Regulations discuss. He gives simple and comprehensive interpretation of the ColRegs rule by rule, giving students and professionals the clarity they need for exam prep and dealing with real-life situations. Colour illustrations of all lights and shapes, and clear diagrams provide additional support for students. The handbook also includes chapters on bridge watch-keeping, radar plotting and techniques for answering ColRegs questions in MCA exam conditions. It shows you where other maritime regulations work hand-in-hand with ColRegs. The book adapts the author's teaching notes, developed over many years, with added extras around the subject to help in greater understanding. This is the ideal handbook for students studying for MCA Masters, OOW, Boat master and Chief Mates exams, plus those who are working towards the RYA Yachtmaster and IYT Master of Yacht Qualifications.
