APPENDIX H.

REGULATIONS FOR PREVENTING COLLISIONS AT SEA.
(Imperial Order in Council of the 13th October, 1910.)

SCHEDULE I.

PRELIMINARY.

182. These rules shall be followed by all vessels upon the high
     seas and in all waters connected therewith navigable by seagoing
     vessels.

In the following rules every steam-vessel which is under sail and
not under steam is to be considered a sailing-vessel, and every vessel
under steam, whether under sail or not, is to be considered a steam-
vessel.

The word "steam-vessel" shall include any vessel propelled by
machinery.

A vessel is "under way" within the meaning of these rules when
she is not at anchor or made fast to the shore or aground.

The word "visible" in these rules, when applied to lights, shall
mean visible on a dark night with a clear atmosphere.

RULES CONCERNING LIGHTS, ETC.

Art. 1.—The rules concerning lights shall be complied with in
all weathers from sunset to sunrise, and during such time no other
lights which may be mistaken for the prescribed lights shall be
exhibited.

Art. 2.—A steam-vessel when under way shall carry—

*a. On or in front of the foremast, or if a vessel without a
foremast, then in the fore part of the vessel, at a height
above the hull of not less than 20 ft., and if the breadth
of the vessel exceeds 20 ft., then at a height above the
hull not less than such breadth—so, however, that the
light need not be carried at a greater height above the
hull than 40 ft.—a bright white light, so constructed as to
show an unbroken light over an arc of the horizon of
twenty points of the compass, so fixed as to throw the light
ten points on each side of the vessel—viz., from right ahead
to two points abaft the beam on either side—and of such
a character as to be visible at a distance of at least 5 miles.

b. On the starboard side a green light, so constructed as to
show an unbroken light over an arc of the horizon of ten
points of the compass, so fixed as to throw the light from
right ahead to two points abaft the beam on the starboard
side, and of such a character as to be visible at a distance
of at least 2 miles.

c. On the port side a red light, so constructed as to show an
unbroken light over an arc of the horizon of ten points of
the compass, so fixed as to throw the light from right ahead
to two points abaft the beam on the port side, and of such
a character as to be visible at a distance of at least 2 miles.

d. The said green and red sidelights shall be fitted with inbound
screens projecting at least 3 ft. forward from the light, so
as to prevent these lights from being seen across the bow.*
