Most boaters know there are a lot of Navigation Rules, but only a handful actually affect you on a daily basis. The problem is knowing which ones matter right now when you’re meeting, crossing, or overtaking another boat. This deck focuses on the rules you’ll use the most — the ones that determine who goes, who holds course, and how to avoid confusion on the water.

Designed for new and intermediate boaters, this 6-card quick-decision deck breaks down the everyday right-of-way situations you’re most likely to encounter and gives you clear, simple solutions for handling them safely and confidently.

You’ll learn the practical give-way/stand-on rules, how to handle crossing and meeting scenarios, what to do in narrow channels, how to recognize restricted-maneuvering vessels, and what changes at night, all explained in a way that’s easy to remember when you need it.

Straightforward, practical, and built for real boaters — this deck makes the Rules of the Road something you can actually use, not something you have to memorize. Slide show images shown for visual reference. Card content varies by deck.
