Introduction



Introduction

Note to Students This workbook was created to help you gain a greater knowledge of Navigation Safety, including the Canadian Modifications. This course is based heavily on the Collision Regulations, a legal document, which can at times be difficult to read and understand. Nevertheless, a high level of understanding is required to be successful. A thorough understanding of the regulations is not only important for passing exams but for your everyday operations. These rules will govern how you conduct yourself and your vessel in your future career. In the event of an incident, your actions may be analyzed by authorities. Through not following or understanding these rules, you can be found criminally and/or financially liable. It is important to complete the exercises in this workbook. However, it is more important to seek clarification and understanding for any rule(s) not understood or questions improperly answered.
