Hi All,

As per the title; is there a Bloc Cotier equivalent that I need to have on board before cruising the Italian Riviera?

Cheers,

I don,t think there is such a book in the “ need “ sense like the Fr with there Bloc .

If you are not IT flagged in IT officialdom will leave you alone , or if bothered ck the reg doc , passports , ins .
Quick peep below to ck if you boats not packed with immigrants.or other suspicious contraband from a smuggling POV .
They will ask where you are from- home port - obviously don't say Tunisia
If you are un lucky you may end up in row about safety gear if they mentally apply there own strick safety gear rules , for IT reg boats
Which tbo are sensible anyhow , but at least with a red duster it’s not legally prescriptive , if you are only visitor - passing through .

Just use any other port plan guide .
Onshore it’s surprisingly cheap - restaurant/ coffees etc compared to tge Cote d Azur and the people seem a bit more friendly, kind , and more helpful .
