Default Help me with Rule 30 of the colregs please (long)


"Capt. JG"
| There are no "versions" of it.

| The official version is he
| http://www.navcen.uscg.gov/mwv/navru...s/Rule3031.htm

Depending where you download it from you get different versions.
Maybe it's a transcription problem or something. Thanks for the link.
I notice in the "official" version it doesn't mention anchorage and only
mentions shape. It says the shape in (a) and (b). How do you explain
there is no shape talked about in (b) only a light. Does shape mean
shape and light or just shape? If just shape how come it includes (b)
a light?
You think I'm dumb but maybe I see things that more experienced
people don't???

Cheers,
Ellen

Cheers,
Ellen

Perhaps the use of the word "or" is the key in (a)?

Probably but why does it say the shape in (a) *and* (b) when there's no
shape in (b) only a light. BTW Mr. otn in another post says the official version
says *lights and shapes* but your official version just says *shapes*.

It's a mess. Somebody needs to make them all the same....

Cheers,
Ellen

Feel free to send feedback to the CG. They're pretty good about addressing
concerns like this.
