Endorsed
by the MCA, the Small Vessel Safety Guidance Booklet was developed
in response to concerns within the industry regarding safety aboard
small vessels measuring under 15m length overall.
The
booklet provides simple guidance to help an owner/operator of a
fishing vessel perform a safety assessment. It contains relevant
questions which should be considered in order to assess the fishing
operation.
A
risk assessment sheet has also been developed for use on small fishing
vessels under 15m length overall. The blank risk assessment sheet
includes a simple step-by-step guide to help an owner/operator perform
a risk assessment.
The
small booklet is already proving popular throughout the UK and is
available FREE to fishermen and fishing boat owners (subject to
availability). To obtain a copy, please contact Marine Services
via the contact page. Alternatively, you can view the documents
