Using navigation marks safely
Published: 03/04/2023 | Updated: 03/04/2023
Paul Glatzel from Powerboat Training UK talks us through how to use navigation marks safely when passing through harbours and ports. Paul looks at the differences between red (port) and green (starboard) lateral markers, the variance in sizes, shapes and numbers used, cardinal markers, and how charts and/or chart-plotters should also be used to safely navigate through channels.
