This Sea Ray owner, albeit only a 35 footer, has three versions, including COLREGS for Idiots or some such title. I like overkill.
The Davis cards (if still available) are excellent cheat cards for old timers and not bad for showing newbies or crewmembers a point you are trying to convey.I have the compete COLREGS in book form. For reference, I find traditional books to be quicker and more convenient. It is what I have had on my last two sailboats. My current boat also came with some quick reference plastic cards which I have found pretty handy for some of the commercial light rules. I never remember the lights for barges and tows and the quick reference card is great for that.

The books are good as they can be pretty instant for many things.....the cards are even faster and made up for simllicity.
I keep mine handy to show people regularly.
I know that it is a requirement to carry a copy of the Inland Navigation Rules on board. I see lots of .pdf versions available on line, but am wondering if having one of these on an on-board computer will satisfy the requirement?
