Foreword
For the crew of a fishing vessel, safety must be given top priority.
Attention to safety will save lives, protect the vessel from damage, prevent
serious injuries, and protect the environment.
The Masters or Operators of all fishing vessels have a duty to continuously
train their crews for safety. This handbook provides information on safety
on small fishing vessels (under 24 metres), and is intended primarily
for vessels where the Master or Operator does not hold a certificate of
competency or has limited vocational training.
This safety manual is not a substitute for compliance with the regulations
applicable to every vessel. Please consult the regulations for the complete
requirements.
