loginWhen the Regulations for Preventing Collisions at Sea were revised
at an International Conference held in 1960 the changes made were
generally of minor character. Soon after the amended Regulations
came into force in 1965 it became apparent that a more thorough
revision was necessary to take account of such developments as the
widespread acceptance and use of radar, the introduction of traffic
separation and the increase in size and speed of many ships. At an
International Conference held in October 1972 substantial changes
were made and a new format was adopted. The 1972 Regulations
came into force in 1977.
