answers
|||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||

or Proof of competency ||||| |||||| ||||||




-pleasure craft license(the numbers on the side of a boat) |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




If you are the owner or operator of a vessel less than 100
|||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




tons, you are not required to have the charts, documents,
|||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




and publications onboard as long as you have sufficient
|||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




knowledge of: - <<<Answers>>>>The location and |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




character of charted shipping routes, lights, buoys and |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




marks, and navigational hazards; and |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




The prevailing navigational conditions, taking into account
|||||| ||| |||||| ||| |||||| ||||||




such factors as tides, currents, ice, and weather
|||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




patterns.


Vessel Operation Restriction Regulations - |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




.<<<Answers>>>>Regulations on boating restrictions ||| ||| ||| |||




apply to certain waters and Canadian waterways. Some |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




provinces, like Ontario, Manitoba, Saskatchewan and |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




Alberta, have adopted a universal speed limit for boats |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




of 10Km/hr when within 30m of the shore on all
|||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




waterways, while coastal provinces such as British |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




Columbia and Nova Scotia have done the same for their |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




inland waters ||||||




Federal Vessel Operation Restriction Regulations are |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||

,specific to certain waters and waterways in Canada, and
|||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




can specify: -
|||||| ||||||




<<<Answers>>>>The types of vessels prohibited on a |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




given waterway;
||||||




Standardized speed limits on a given waterway; |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||

,Maximum engine horsepower on a given ||| |||||| ||| ||||| |||||| |||




waterway; Power vessel restriction on a given |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




waterway; and Waterskiing restrictions. |||||| |||||| ||||||




Other Vessel Operation Restriction Regulations - |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




<<<Answers>>>>passed and enforced by local municipal |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




governments. Therefore, it is important to pay close
|||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




attention to all signs encountered while boating, and to |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




comply with any indicated regulations. Boaters must not |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




tamper with or alter regulatory signs in any way (i.e. |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




hiding, changing, damaging or destroying, or mooring to |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




a sign is not permitted). Failure to comply with these
|||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




regulations is a chargeable offense. |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




Stand-on Vessel (B) - When encountering another vessel, |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




as the operator of the stand-on vessel, you must: -
|||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




<<<Answers>>>>Maintain course and speed; |||||| |||||| ||||||




Keep a proper lookout and return communication with
|||||| ||||| ||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




the give-way vessel; and
|||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




Do all you can to avoid collision.
|||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




Give-Way Vessel (A) - <<<Answers>>>>As the operator of |||||| |||||| |||||| ||| |||||| |||||| |||||




the give-way vessel, you must take early and substantial
|||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




action to avoid collisions. |||||| |||||| ||||||




Safe Boating to Avoid Collisions - |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




<<<Answers>>>>Avoiding collisions involves |||||| |||||| ||||||




precautionary

, measures (e.g. proper lookout, use of radar if present), |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




but more importantly, collision avoidance is made
|||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




possible when boat operators know how to deal with |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




situations appropriately. Boats in constant motion will |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




meet quickly, so take early and substantial action to |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




avoid collisions. ||||||




As a general rule, rowboats, sailing vessels, and canoes
|||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




are less maneuverable and therefore have -
|||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




<<<Answers>>>>the right-of-way over power-driven |||||| |||||| |||||| |||




boats. However, if one vessel is unable to maneuver as it |||||| ||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




normally would, the most maneuverable vessel gives |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




way.


Steer Clear of Tug Boats - <<<Answers>>>>A tug boat |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




can pull a vessel with a long tow line that can hang
|||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




underneath the water's surface, making it very difficult to |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




see. Attempting to pass between a tug and its tow could
|||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




result in your vessel hitting the hidden line and capsizing, |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




or getting hit by the towed object.
|||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




According to the Canadian Collision Regulations - |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




<<<Answers>>>>any vessel not under command, or |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




vessel restricted in its ability to maneuver - including |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




fishing vessels, sailboats, paddle craft, canoes, and kayaks |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




- has the right of way over power-driven vessels unless it
|||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




is overtaking the power-driven vessel.
|||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




Shipping Lanes - <<<Answers>>>>Remember that large |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




vessels found in shipping lanes will not always see your |||||| |||||| ||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| |||||| ||||||




small
