🔍 Key Concepts

• Demarcation lines between Inland and International Rules (33 CFR Part 80) • How Long Island Sound and Block Island Sound are classified for Navigation Rules purposes • Meaning of territorial sea boundary vs. inland/international rules boundary

💭 Think About

• Think about where the official boundary between Inland and International Rules is drawn in the area of eastern Long Island Sound and Block Island Sound. • Ask yourself: Does simply passing a geographic feature like The Race automatically change the rules, or is it tied to a specific charted demarcation line? • Consider whether the entire Long Island Sound is under one rules system, or if the system changes as you move eastward toward the open ocean.

✅ Before You Answer

• Check 33 CFR Part 80 for the exact demarcation line descriptions in the Long Island/Block Island Sound area. • Verify whether the territorial sea boundary is the same thing as the Inland/International Rules boundary (they are defined differently). • Confirm on a chart where the transition from Inland Rules to International Rules actually occurs when moving from Long Island Sound toward Block Island Sound and beyond.
