Colreg

The document summarizes the rules regarding lights and shapes that various types of vessels must follow according to the COLREG (International Regulations for Preventing Collisions at Sea) rules of 1983. It defines key terms and outlines the lights, shapes, and behaviors required for vessels engaged in activities like fishing, towing, dredging, diving, and mine clearance to indicate their operations and maneuvering limitations to other vessels.
