Study Notes
- When sailing, vessels must always proceed at a safe speed in order to avoid collisions. Factors to be considered include the state of visibility, the traffic density, the maneuverability of the vessel, and the distance appropriate to the prevailing conditions.
- When sailing with operational radar, vessels must take into account the characteristics, efficiency, and limitations of the radar equipment, as well as any constraints imposed by the radar range scale in use. Additionally, vessels must take into account the sea state, weather, and other sources of interference.
- Small vessels, ice, and other floating objects may not be detected by radar at an adequate range, so vessels must also take into account the number, location, and movement of vessels detected by radar.
