I admit I am weak on US Inland Rules, I am not American and rarely sail inside the demarcation line for Inland Rules. I don't suppose the average American sailor is very familiar with our inland rules (Canada) either. I'm far from expert, but the section of Rule 34 quoted below seems to have much the same thing to say about the situation as the US Inland Rules. Not sure what your point is. That knowing the Canadian Rules for the Great Lakes Basin is probably close enough to knowing the US Inland Rules for a discussion like this one. The Canadian Mods to the rules for the Great Lakes would have to be the same as the American rules wouldn't they? It would sure make life difficult if the two coutries bordering on the Lakes had different passing rules. As you say, so being qualified as a Canadian for the Great Lakes would give one knowledge of the rules, without knowledge of the local jargon which is separate from the rules. (For that matter, do the rules say anything about language of communication?) Note that these rules don't apply in any other Canadian inland waters. Noted. Ryk |
