RYA: Cockpit Card – Rule of the Road

The rules of the road in one easy to access place.

Side 1 - lists the definitions of port and starboard tack and the rules applying to sailing vessels meeting on the same tack, opposite tack and overtaking.

Side 2 - are the rules as they apply to power meeting sail, power vessels crossing, power vessels meeting head-on, and overtaking rules.

Cockpit Cards are a series of quick reference nautical cards designed to withstand the harsh environment of life afloat. The crisp clear images are printed to a very high standard using 'light-fast ink'. They are encapsulated rather than laminated using a heavy duty plastic and will provide years of sailing use and abuse.
