You’ve joined a global community of mariners, conservationists, and ocean advocates working to protect marine ecosystems through safe and responsible navigation.

By pledging to navigate with care, you are committing to:

  • Use navigation tools and Aids to Navigation (AtoNs) to avoid accidents and reduce harm to sensitive habitats
  • Anchor responsibly to prevent damage to coral reefs, seagrass beds, and mangroves
  • Stay informed about local regulations, protected areas, and no-go zones to navigate safely and sustainably
  • Follow international maritime conventions (like SOLAS and COLREGS) to prevent collisions and enhance safety for all at sea
  • Lead by example and promote safe, sustainable boating practices within your community

Your choices on the water help safeguard people, marine life, and the vital ecosystems that support us all.
