🚢Coast Guard Issues Certificate of Alternative Compliance for M/V FLOR DE MAGA

The Coast Guard announces that the Chief of Prevention Division, Southeast District has issued a certificate of alternative compliance from the International Regulations for Preventing Collisions at Sea, 1972 (72 COLREGS), for the M/V FLOR DE MAGA (O.N. 1345508). We are issuing this notice because its publication is required by statute. Due to the construction and placement of the forward and aft masthead lights, M/V FLOR DE MAGA cannot fully comply with the light provisions of the 72 COLREGS without interfering with the vessel's design and construction. This notification of the issuance of these certificates of alternative compliance promotes the Coast Guard's marine safety mission.
