Following Dag Pike's earlier paper on this subject I would like to discuss some points and address the problems of collision avoidance with High Speed Vessels within the framework of the present International Regulations for the Prevention of Collisions at Sea (COLREGS). Generally, a valid case for limited modifications to the COLREGS may be presented, but they may not be as wanting as suggested by Mr Pike.
