Synopsis (short abstract)This poster aims to increase awareness about some of the maritime traffic rules, based on the IMO ColRegs (the IMO Convention on the International Regulations for Preventing Collisions at Sea, 1972). The poster is intended to provide small-scale fishers with knowledge of some key maritime "rules of the road", as well as internationally agreed signals and signs that are important for their activities at sea. This poster is part of an FAO-FISH Safety Foundation package of training materials on safety at sea for small-scale fishers.
