Navigation Rules is a publication that contains the rules and regulations that apply to the operation of ships and other vessels in navigable waters. These rules are designed to promote the safe and efficient operation of ships, and to prevent collisions and other accidents.

The navigation rules book typically includes information on:

  • The "rules of the road," which are the specific rules that apply to the movement of vessels in different situations, such as when two vessels are approaching each other, or when a vessel is crossing the path of another vessel.
  • Signals and signals of distress, which are the signals and procedures that are used to communicate with other vessels and to indicate when a vessel is in distress.
  • Lights and shapes, which are the signals that are used to indicate the nature and intentions of a vessel, such as whether it is underway or at anchor.
  • Sound signals, which are the signals that are used to communicate with other vessels using sound, such as horn blasts or whistles.
  • Aids to navigation, which are the systems and devices that are used to help vessels navigate, such as lighthouses, buoys, and radar.

The navigation rules book is an important reference for all vessel operators, as it contains important information that is necessary for the safe operation of ships. It is typically required to be on board all vessels and to be readily available for reference.

WATERPROOF CHARTS

Our waterproof charts are printed on a
very durable, extremely tear resistant,
waterproof material using state of the art
printing technology. The waterproof
material accepts pencil markings well and
also erases well. The paper and printing process has been certified by NOAA and deemed to be suitable to withstand the
rigors of use in the marine environment.

TIP: If you plan to frame or laminate a chart using heat, then do not choose waterproof because the material can melt under heat.

SMALL FORMAT CHARTS
These are up-to-date, NOAA charts simply
reduced in size so that the small dimension of the chart is 21”, the long dimension is proportionally reduced. These charts are not printed to full size, therefore the scale is not the same as the full size NOAA chart, however the scale bars on the charts are proportionally reduced in size, and can be used for reference. These charts are not recommended for navigation.

These are up-to-date, NOAA charts simply enlarged in size so that the small dimension of the chart is 42”, the long dimension is proportionally enlarged. These charts are printed beyond full size, therefore the scale is not the same as the full size NOAA chart, however the scale bars on the charts are proportionally enlarged in size, and can be used for reference.

DECORATIVE ANTIQUED CHARTS

This is a unique line of decorative charts prepared by Paradise Cay Publications.

  • This is an art piece prepared with the look of a well-used chart with the patina of antique parchment.
  • Printed on our high-quality heavy paper.
  • We have added an additional border to allow for framing.
  • Shipped rolled, never folded.

The short side of the chart is always printed at 36" and the long side will vary depending on the chart - please do not order framing prior to receiving the chart. These will memorialize your favorite coastal area in vintage style and we have added to the standard border of the typical NOAA chart to allow for a more professional, frame-ready presentation.
