General Scenario: Fishing Vessel Pablo has been sighted on the Pedro Banks.

HMJS SURREY which is on patrol has intercepted the vessel and after conducting pre-boarding questions is preparing to embark a 6 member boarding team. The scenario begins with the Boarding Officer issuing instructions to the Captain of the vessel to muster his crew at a designated area. [ACTION] BO: Captain, muster your crew at the port quarter of the vessel!

***Captain complies*** Narrator: Once the Boarding Officer is satisfied, the Boarding team then embarks the vessel as per the Boarding plan. [ACTION] *** Security team embarks. Once clear all team members embark and take up positions **** [PAUSE] Having conducted the initial safety inspection, the team can then proceed with the remainder of the Boarding. In this scene, the boarding team will demonstrate how to subdue an active resistor and we will see how the use of force continuum is utilized in making tactical decisions. [ACTION] The BO issues instructions to the active resistor who is very boisterous, to remain calm and proceed to the stern of the vessel. The active resistor ignores the instructions. As level one of the continuums which is verbal commands seems to be ineffective, the BO steps up to level two which is soft hand techniques until the subject is under control. [PAUSE] Once compliant, the BO lowers the force and escorts the subject to the muster area. The short, sharp pain administered to the subject is only used to stir movement and compliance and is not maintained throughout the escort. [ACTION] *** Subjects become angered. Active aggressor emerges and reaches for weapon*** [PAUSE] The situation has escalated as now an active aggressor has moved towards the boarding team. The subject ignores all verbal commands and a weapon is spotted. Immediately the use of force continuum dictates that strong hand techniques must be used. The BO draws his weapon in an effort to dissuade the subject from using his knife and also to force him into a state of compliance. The BO uses the push-pull method to regain control of his weapon and to distance himself from the active aggressive subject. The BO must then escort this subject away from the crew to an area where he can be thoroughly searched and detained without influencing others. *** BOs take down the subject, search and subdue****

Once all persons are accounted for and under control, a security watch is set up while other members of the team commence a thorough search of the vessel. The captain is brought along with the chief engineer into all spaces and the crew documentation must be checked for authenticity. This brings the boarding scenario to an end.
