Radar Reflectors

Radar reflectors are metallic devices that help small boats show up on the radar screens of larger boats.

• Radar reflectors are required for boats that are:
  • Less than 20 metres (65.6 feet) in length or…
  • Built mainly of materials that are not metallic.
• Radar reflectors should be mounted as high as possible on the boat.
• See the Collision Regulations, Schedule 1, Rule 40 for radar reflector exemptions.
