Other Marine Navigation Related Sites and Information of Interest
Obviously the first site of interest to ALL mariners is the United States Coast Guard. This main CG site gives you access to much useful information. Unfortunately the CG search feature often leads you to obscure references so you are better off following their links. Some other useful CG links are here to help you find relevant information. The National Maritime Center site provides licensing information. NVIC indexes provides a way to find the Navigational Vessel Inspection Circulars that you need. CGMIX provides CG freedom of information info. like vessel names etc. The Marine Safety Center provides information on submitting plans for new construction etc. CFRs (33 and 46) give you the rules that govern marine activities.
Also very important for mariners is weather information. The weather channel gives similar information to that available on TV. Weather Underground provides more detailed technical information like predicted storm tracks for thunderstorms etc.
