Your Essential Guide to Safe and Informed Navigation

Navigating the Pacific Coast, from the rugged shores of Washington to the volcanic islands of Hawaii and the remote atolls of the Pacific, demands precision, local knowledge, and reliable data. The United States Coast Pilot 10 delivers exactly that—an authoritative, up-to-date nautical reference designed for mariners who require more than just charts. This official publication bridges the gap between raw cartographic data and real-world navigation, offering critical insights that ensure safety, efficiency, and compliance in one of the world’s most dynamic maritime regions.


Beyond the Chart: What This Guide Provides

While nautical charts provide the foundational framework for navigation, they cannot capture the full complexity of coastal environments. This guide fills that void with detailed, location-specific information that charts alone cannot convey. From the shifting sandbars of the Columbia River to the deep-water channels of Honolulu Harbor, it offers comprehensive descriptions of channels, anchorages, and navigation aids. It also includes real-time data on tidal heights, water levels, and currents—critical factors for vessels of all sizes, from commercial freighters to private sailboats. Weather patterns, ice conditions, and local pilotage requirements are also covered, giving mariners a complete operational picture before they even set sail.


Engineered for Professional Mariners

This publication is not a casual sailing companion—it is a professional tool built for those who operate in the maritime industry. Commercial vessel operators, fishing fleets, tugboat crews, and maritime logistics teams rely on its accuracy to plan routes, avoid hazards, and comply with federal regulations. The guide includes essential details on towing operations, traffic separation schemes, and port infrastructure, ensuring that every voyage adheres to the highest standards of safety and efficiency. With its focus on practical, actionable information, it is an indispensable resource for anyone responsible for the safe passage of vessels along the Pacific Coast.


Built for Durability and Accessibility

Designed for use in the demanding environment of a ship’s bridge or a dockside planning session, this paperback edition is built to withstand frequent handling. Its 8½ x 11-inch format provides ample space for clear, legible text and diagrams, while its lightweight yet sturdy construction ensures it remains a reliable reference for years. The 2025 edition reflects the latest updates, with revisions published regularly to account for changes in navigation aids, port developments, and regulatory requirements. Whether you’re navigating the busy shipping lanes of Puget Sound or the remote waters of the Northwestern Hawaiian Islands, this guide ensures you have the most current information at your fingertips.


Compliance and Confidence on Every Voyage

Navigating federal waters requires adherence to a complex web of regulations, and this guide simplifies compliance by consolidating critical legal and operational requirements. It includes amalgamated navigation rules, federal guidelines, and local ordinances, allowing mariners to operate with confidence and avoid costly violations. For vessels entering U.S. ports, this publication is often a required reference, ensuring that every crew member has access to the same standardized, authoritative information. With its focus on clarity and precision, it minimizes risk and maximizes operational efficiency—making it a cornerstone of safe maritime practice.


A Living Document for a Dynamic Coastline

The Pacific Coast is a region of constant change, where natural forces and human activity continually reshape the maritime landscape. This guide is updated regularly to reflect those changes, ensuring that mariners always have access to the most accurate and relevant information.
