Since the nav rules quiz has been revived I thought I'd mention that there are at least 3 apps for the iPhone that contain the colregs as wells as shapes and signals, bouys and lights, etc. One is named appropriately enough Nav Rules, one is Imray Rules & Signals and the other is Sea Rules. The last 2 have a flash card like test on lights and shapes that is pretty neat. While Sea Rules has nice graphics of vessels displaying their varrious light/day shape configurations.

Nice! Only Sea Rules is free, though.

Sorry I don't. Had our chef with a Droid phone look but he didn't see any. But they could be available and he just missed them.
 
I wonder if having a copy like that on your smart phone or laptop counts as having a copy on board for vessels larger than 12 meters?
 
I don't believe it qualifies, however the last time I was inspected, I told the inspector it was on my laptop, and he didn't question, nor marked it as an infraction. I have since aquired the book, and keep it aboard.
