"tacit acceptance"
The intention had been to keep the
convention up to date by periodic
amendments, but the procedure to
incorporate the amendments proved to
be very slow: it could take several
years for the amendments to be put
into action since countries had to give
notice of acceptance to IMO and there
was a minimum threshold of countries
and tonnage.

"tacit acceptance"
The latest Convention in 1974
therefore included the "tacit
acceptance" procedure
whereby amendments enter
into force by default unless
nations file objections that
meet a certain number or
tonnage.

LIFEBOAT
A lifeboat is a boat designed to save
the lives of people in trouble at sea.
The term is used for vessels carried by
ships to allow passengers and crew to
escape in an emergency. In Britain the
term is also used for special shorebased vessels manned by volunteers,
designed to quickly reach a ship or
individuals in trouble at sea. Both
ships' lifeboats and rescue lifeboats
may be rigid or inflatable vessels.

Ship-launched lifeboats
These are designed to be lowered from
davits on a ship's deck. They are designed
to be unsinkable, with buoyancy that
cannot be damaged. The coverr is a storm
shelter and sunshade, can usually collect
rainwater, and is visible from the air.

Ship-launched lifeboats
They usually carry flares and mirrors for
signaling, three days' worth of food and
water, oars, an engine, heater and basic
navigational equipment.
In recent history the boats have started to
be replaced by more modern and capable
designs that do not meet this minimal
definition.

(8) Pass him the tail of the painter line leading back to
the hydrostatic release, he will be pulling the liferaft
closer too
(9) Every person that enters the liferaft helps him to keep
the liferaft close to the ship
(10) The second last person will get the safety knife
attached to the sponsons inside the liferaft
(11) Once the last person boards the liferaft, the painter
line gets cut at the hydrostatic release side
(12) It is important to try and not loose your liferaft's, this
has been done before, the reason for launching liferaft's
is there is no hope for the vessel, loose these liferaft's
and there is no hope for you, take care!

Distress radiobeacon
In the field of Search and Rescue
(SAR), distress radiobeacons, also
collectively known as distress
beacons, emergency beacons, or
simply, beacons, are tracking
transmitters which aid in the
detection and location of boats,
aircraft, and/or persons in
distress.

Distress radiobeacon
In the proper sense, the term refers
specifically to the 3 types of
radiobeacons (listed below) that
interface with Cospas-Sarsat, the
international satellite system for
Search and Rescue. When activated,
such beacons send out a distress
signal that, when detected by
non-geostationary satellites, can be
located by triangulation.

Distress radiobeacon
In the case of 406 MHz beacons
which transmit digital signals, the
beacons can be uniquely
identified almost instantly (via
GEOSAR), and furthermore, a GPS
position can be encoded into the
signal (thus providing both
instantaneous identification &
position.)

Distress radiobeacon
Often using the initial position
provided via the satellite system,
the distress signals from the
beacons can be homed by SAR
aircraft and ground search parties
who can in turn come to the aid of
the concerned boat, aircraft,
and/or persons.

EPIRBS
EPIRB stands for Emergency Position
Indicating Radio Beacon. An EPIRB is
meant to help rescuers locate you in an
emergency situation, and these radios
have saved many lives since their
creation in the 1970s. Boaters are the
main users of EPIRBs.

GPS EPIRBS
The latest generation of EPIRBs have
GPS built in, this means that the position
of a vessel in distress can be known to
about 20m.
At present these EPIRBs are the most
expensive but they will become standard
in the future and the price will drop
considerably.

SART
S.A.R.T. stands for Search And rescue
Transponder, when activated, and vessel

bandwidth will be able to home on your
vessel (or liferaft).

(1) Remove the S.A.R.T. from it's
container
(2) Pull the safety pin from the S.A.R.T.
(3) Check the RED light is on
(4) In onboard the vessel, try and get it as
high as possible
(5) If in a Liferaft, mount it on top of the
liferaft

Battery Renewal - 4 years
Type of battery - Lithium
Operating life span - 100 hours in stand-by
mode and 8 hours when continuously sending a
signal
Serviced every 2 years
Monthly tests - turn the switch on the S.A.R.T. to
test mode, hold for a few seconds, an audible
alarm will sound and the light will flash
(As soon as you see the light and hear the
sound you should switch it off, leaving it on will
activate the S.A.R.T.
