Sailing directions

Based on a published sailing directions guide

Väikelaevad peavad laevade lähenemisel hoiduma sissesõidutee telgjoonest nii kaugele, kui seda võimaldab nende endi meresõiduohutus. Speed limit: minimaalne kiirus, mille puhul säilib aluse juhitavus. Vessel movements: laeva ümberpaigutamine on lubatud üksnes sadamakapteni teenistuse loal. Entry and departure ban: nähtavusel alla 200 m; tuule kiirusel üle 15 m/s.[2]

Use together with an up-to-date nautical chart and navigational warnings.
