Safe navigation is not just about knowing the rules—it's about taking timely, positive, and effective action. COLREG Rule 8 emphasizes that any maneuver to avoid collision must be made early, large enough to be obvious, and based on the prevailing circumstances such as visibility, traffic density, weather, and sea conditions.
Take action in good time
Make course or speed changes that are clear and effective
Consider all surrounding conditions before maneuvering
Prioritize avoiding collision over simply following a routine course
Good judgment and decisive action save lives and ensure safer seas for everyone.
