Abstract

This paper is presented as a think piece and poses the introduction of a new type of high-speed craft to represent the growing number of fast manoeuvrable craft that could safely maintain their speed in heavy traffic areas. A method of defining such craft is introduced and a proposal made for a corresponding amendment to the COLREGS.
