The IALA rules are international. If you can't see the color a SQUARE means Red (think of it as for sides = an even number). It makes more sense. Red is Square... Green is a triangle. Going in to a marina or harbor your keep green starboard and red portside. Going out you reverse that. It's weird that it hasn't become standard rules in the US yet.

I realy have to stop watching boating info from the USA. i Keep forgetting you guys have your own rules under the iala (A)

But like you, we have more than our fair share of dickheads that should not even be allowed to swim in water let alone drive a boat. mind you they make for good entertainment down at the ramp when i get bored

best boating tip i can give is stay the hell off the water. half of you boater clowns are rude inconsiderate shits. speeding through manatee zones, speeding through idle and no wake areas, drinking, rolling around in circles seeming like you have no idea where you are going, what you are doing, and why you are doing it. and what is it that assholes in boats love so much about disturbing people's fishing spots? its as iff you seek out people fishing on land and run up on their spots on purpose

@jsg2891 you forgot blowing through no wake zones. I love that shit, yo.

I see that all the time, I live on a canal, and when the assholes speed through the canal, the waves created bounce the boats up and down the sea wall, scraping the hell out of the paint. I don't have a boat, but a few of my neighbors do and when people don't slow down, its funny when my neighbors take shovels and save up their dog's shit so they can sling it at speeding idiots. There is nothing more amusing than seeing some rich snobby rude asshole get pelted with several pounds of dog shit!!

"In normal circumstances  you would stay just like in a car on your right hand side"

What about if you drive on the left hand side of the road?

@Zeamus634 Hopefully you don't drive on the left hand side if/when you are in the states...

Ah, that's cool, I always thought there was only the color to tell them apart.
