Good afternoon DS.
This may be more than your after but the link will take you to Chapter 14 (a PDF) of the Coast Guard Boat Crew Seamanship Manual covering Navigation. I think what your looking for is there but you may have to do a bit of browsing and it will take a minute to load. (start looking around page 16)

Thanks SR,
That document is very basic for sure. Had to look somewhere else but found it.

Don,
Pick up a copy of Chapman's Piloting. It is a good read and reference.

The book is called "Chart 1" or "Chart One". It has all the symbols you could ever imagine. Chapmans has them too but thats expensive.
