  • Explain traffic rules for narrow channels, bends, overtaking, priority, and avoiding ambiguity.
  • Apply meeting rules to a realistic onboard situation.
  • Recall the core check: keep to the required side or route unless signs or local rules say otherwise.

A self-guided revision companion that explains essential concepts, then helps you practise and test them. It supports—but does not replace—recognised instruction, practical training, assessment or certification. Access is a one-time payment, not a subscription.

Traffic Decisions in Restricted Water

Meeting, crossing, and overtaking decisions inland are shaped by restricted depth, narrow fairways, bends, bridges, lock approaches, commercial traffic, signs, and local rules.

The safe answer is rarely just 'who gives way?' It is more often: where is the fairway, which vessel is constrained, what signs or lights control the section, and can the manoeuvre be completed before the next restriction?

  • Keep to the required side or route unless signs or local rules say otherwise.
  • Do not create a close-quarters situation at bends, bridges, locks, or narrow sections.
  • Give larger or constrained vessels room early.
  • Use clear sound, radio, or visual signals where the waterway requires them.
