"The RULES are divided into two parts, INLAND and INTERNATIONAL.  Inland
Rules apply to vessels operating inside the line of demarcation while
International apply outside.  Demarcation lines are printed on most
navigation charts and are published in the Navigation Rules."

"NAVIGATION RULES" Commandant Instruction M16672.2 Series  may be obtained
from the US GPO
