Since the USCG last published the Navigation Rules in 1999 there have been a few NTM additions that have been unrestricted which affect COLREGS. The Paradise Cay Publications Inc. version does an outstanding job integrating these NTM into the COLREGS with a gray background box which brings the readers attention immediately to the changes. Additionally, they have provided a slightly more useful table of contents which they refer to as an “Annotated Contents”. Most importantly, they provide you with their website, which lists all the NTM which affect your navigation rules, so that you can keep your book updated in the decades to come. Their website also lets you place in your e-mail take up which then e-mails you if there are any new NTM that affect your navigation rules.
Finally, when comparing the Paradise Cay Publications Inc. version to the Lighthouse Press, ProStar version, there is a clear difference in quality with respect to the diagrams. The Paradise Cay Publications Inc. version has clear diagrams with legible explanations. With the ProStar version it is like you are looking at a blurry copy of a blurry copy; the diagrams are just not as legible, especially the font within the diagrams.
If you want a handy to use, up-to-date (and simple to keep that way), and legible copy of the Navigation Rules, go with the Paradise Cay Publications Inc. version.

Increase you on the water knowledge by learning the “Rules of the Road”. It’s incredible to see how many “boaters” have no clue how to run a vessel according to the rules.

If you are a seaman you have to possess it, read it, and know it. Period. The fee on Amazon was much cheaper than my local stores.

The publication is REQUIRED to be onboard vessels over 39 feet. Not much choice in the matter.
