Paragraph 18 Diving signals

Changes not yet applied. Later legislation changes this provision in ways not yet written into the text below:

(1)

If the size or construction of a craft or vessel engaged in diving operations makes it impracticable to exhibit the shapes prescribed in Rule 27(d) of the Collision Regulations, a rigid replica of the International Code Flag “A” not less than 600 millimetres in height shall be exhibited and measures taken to ensure all-round visibility, such replica to be illuminated between sunset and sunrise on the approach of other vessels.

(2)

Free swimming divers are to be marked by short-scope orange marker buoys, such buoys to be lit between sunset and sunrise with a white or amber light.
