Description
Coded Vessel Manual – LSA & Fire Training Manual for Non-SOLAS Vessels by I.C. Brindle is a comprehensive training and reference manual for operators and crew of non-SOLAS coded vessels.
The manual is designed to help meet the training manual requirements of recognised yacht and vessel codes and provides practical guidance on life-saving appliances (LSA), survival techniques, search and rescue, fire safety, emergency procedures and enclosed space entry.
It is intended for vessels including commercial vessels, larger yachts, workboats, sail training vessels and other coded craft. Applicable rules and requirements vary according to factors including vessel type, size, use, registration and Flag Administration.
Life-saving appliances, survival and fire safety
The first part of the manual contains generic information concerning life-saving appliances, survival, search and rescue, enclosed space entry, fire principles and theory, and fire extinguishing systems and equipment.
Contents: Preparing for an Emergency; Life Saving Appliances; Survival Techniques; Search and Rescue; Enclosed Space Entry; Fire: Principles and Theory; Fire Extinguishing Systems & Equipment; Fire Fighting Organisation & Techniques; Vessel-Specific Equipment Inventory and Procedures.
The manual includes diagrams and photographs throughout and is designed as a practical reference for crew training, onboard familiarisation and ongoing safety management.
Vessel-specific documentation
The manual is divided into two parts. Sections 1–10 contain generic information, while Section 11 is intended to be completed by the vessel’s owner or operator.
This section allows details of the actual life-saving appliances, fire-fighting equipment, emergency procedures and escape arrangements on board to be recorded, creating a manual specific to the individual vessel.
The A4 loose-leaf format also makes it easy to update the manual when equipment or procedures change.
The manual refers to recognised codes including the Red Ensign Group (REG) Yacht Code 2024, Malta Commercial Yacht Code 2025 (CYC 2025), Small Commercial Yacht Code 2024 (sCYC 2024), Marshall Islands Yacht Code 2021 (amended 2023) and Cayman Islands Passenger Yacht Code 2016.
Requirements for non-SOLAS vessels may vary between registries and Flag Administrations. Owners and operators should therefore check the information in the manual against the regulations and codes applicable to their particular vessel.

Dette synes jeg er en klar forbedring. Vi beholder også Brindles originale engelske navn i Contents-listen, i stedet for at WPML oversetter dem frem og tilbake. Det er spesielt fornuftig på disse maritime produktene.
