This publication supersedes the Coast Guard pamphlet 'Rules of the Road, International-Inland' (CG-169) dated August 1, 1972. This edition contains the International Regulations for Preventing Collisions at Sea, 1972 (commonly called the 72 COLREGS) which must be followed by all public and private vessels of the United States while navigating upon the high seas. The 72 COLREGS are part of an international convention that was developed under the auspices of the United Nations' Inter-Governmental Maritime Consultative Organization (IMCO) in 1972. The 72 COLREGS enter into force at 12 noon, local zone time, on July 15, 1977. They replace and abrogate the International Regulations for Preventing Collisions at Sea, 1960. Also included are the Inland Rules of the Road which are to be followed by all vessels while navigating upon certain inland waters of the United States. Vessels and seaplanes navigating outside the boundary line dividing the high seas from the inland waters must follow the International Regulations; vessels navigating inshore of that line must follow the statutory Inland Rules and the regulations (Pilot Rules) established pursuant thereto. There is no provision within the Inland Rules for seaplanes. Civil Air Regulations (14 CFR 91.69) govern seaplanes upon the navigable waters of the United States and conform with the Inland Rules applicable to vessels.
