The USCG has issued a Policy Letter regarding electronic versions of navigation publications onboard US vessels. The letter provides that US vessels may maintain required navigation publications (such as the Light List and Coast Pilot) in an electronic format on the vessel so long as it is reasonably accessible to the crew. A back-up copy must also be maintained on the vessel. This does not include nautical charts.
