T&T: [Fwd: RE: 840: Bridge to Bridge Radiotelephone Regs (12 nm limit)]

[Capt. Mike Maurice]

Here is the latest follow up from the USCG concerning the changes to the 
  nav rules booklet. I have included the URL's where you can pick this 
up, since the attachment won't post to the forum. At the very bottom is 
the actual language as it will be in the updated booklets.

Mike, once again, thank you for bringing this up to our attention.  I
pleased to inform you we have updated our site

http://www.navcen.uscg.gov/mwv/regulations/33CFR026/33CFR26.htm
  and
created a COMDTINST M16672.2D 'insert
http://www.navcen.uscg.gov/mwv/navrules/Changes.htm
   page' (not attached) to
reflect the change.  In the near future, we will also do so in a Notice to
Mariners and USCG Local Notice to Mariners.

Best regards,

CG Nav Team
