You are subject to marine traffic laws and "Rules of the Road" for both federal and state waterways; you must stop if signaled to do so by enforcement officers, and permit to be boarded if asked. There are many pamphlets, prepared by the USCG, available to you. These pamphlets explain "Rules of the Road," signal lights, buoys, safety, international and inland regulations and much more than is presented in the manual. For more information, contact your local USCG Unit or call the Coast Guard Customer Infoline at 1-800-368-5647.
