I see there has been a vessel/float plane collision in Vancouver harbour.
The video was taken near Brockton Point. There is a zone marked “Seaplane Landing” on the chart. However it would seem to me given the location and size of this designated area, vessels would need to transit through to leave/approach their mooring areas in Coal Harbour.
The Colregs state:
“A seaplane on the water shall, in general, keep well clear of all vessels and avoid impeding their navigation. In circumstances, however, where risk of collision exists, she shall comply with the Rules of this Part.”
