However you should be familiar with the Basic theories involved in cruising from one Point to an other and have at least rudimentary knowledge of How to read a nautical Chart should the dec Casion Ever arise. It is important also that you should know the different buoys and what they mean As some Manitoba Waterways especially the larger ones use these aids to navigation to warn you of Dan Gers. There Are Many different types of buoys with varying colors shapes and lights. However generally speaking you need Only know the meaning of couple of these to get along in Prairie water ways. Determine direction the first thing to remember whim dealing with buoys is to figure out whether the direction you Are travelling is upstream or Lown Stream. If you Are beading from some where in Lake Winnipeg toward the Mouth of the red River you Are obviously going upstream. If you Are in the Middle of Lake of the Woods and making for Kenora or Keewatin you Are going Down Stream. Just remember that All Manitoba and most Northwestern Onufri Waterways eventually Drain int. Hudson Bay to the North. The two buoys to remember Are the Cone shaped red one known As the starboard buoy and the can shaped Black one or port buoy. When travelling downstream you must keep to the right of red buoys and to the left of Black buoys. Going upstream red buoys should be on your right Star Board Side and Black buoys on your left port Side. The Only other Type of buoy you might encounter in local Waters is a spar buoy which can be any thing from an old tree to a float with a Flag on top. It May be painted or not it May mean there is some underwater obstruction at the spot such As a Rock Sandbar or fish net or it Marks a Chan Nel.

A key to these symbols is usually contained on the charts. Compass an Ordinary Needle Compass of the pocket Type is of Little use on a boat. A dome topped spherical Model is the Best this Type will stay steady in rough water. Your Compass will Point to magnetic North. Your charts Are gridded on True North the Varia Tion Between these two in the area in which you Are cruising is always shown on the rosettes on the charts. Dividers one of the most useful instruments for scaling off distances on a Chart. Protractor the course protractor made of transparent plastic is an indispensable item for laying out a course in accor dance with the Compass Varia Tion. Parallel Rule used mainly for transferring the de sired course to the Chart Rosette to obtain the True bearing. Among other useful articles of equipment for navigators Are an Ordinary foot ruler and a device with which you can measure mile age on a Chart by running it Over the desired course and Reading from a dial. The latter is especially Handy when you want a Quick estimate of the distance to be travelled 01 an irregular course it has a smal wheel at the lower end which is run Over the course and a dial with a moving Needle that enables the navigator to measure distances on charts of varying Scales.
