正规瞭望的实质意义和形式意义

On proper look-out and its meanings in essence and in form

分析船舶海上避碰对正规瞭望的要求,指出正规瞭望的实质意义是指对局面持续的掌握和控制,是不能中断的;而正规瞭望的形式意义是指具体瞭望行为的实施,是可以中断的。《避碰规则》第5条中的atalltimes是对正规瞭望的实质意义的要求,而非对其形式意义的要求。

Analysis of the coUision avoidance requirements On proper look-out reveals that, the meaning in essence of a proper look, out refers to the continuous, unbroken understanding and control of the situation, while its meaning in form refers to the execution of the specific look,out acts. The term of＂at all times＂ contained in Rule 5 of the COLREGs is actually a requirement on its meaning in essence rather than On its meaning in form.
