  2. Towing Vessel ManningLearning Objectives • State: manning and work hour requirements for UTV operating on inland waters. • State: manning and work hour requirements for UTV operating outside the boundary lines. • State: manning requirements for vessels on international voyages. • State: manning requirements for vessels on for vessels on foreign voyages.

  3. Towing Vessel Manning Manning Responsibility • 46 CFR 15.103(b) “The navigation and shipping laws state that a vessel may not be operated unless certain manning requirements are met.

Safe ManningIssues • Towing Vessel Detentions • Flag States unfamiliarity with Uninspected Towing Vessels and US domestic regulations that apply to these vessels. • Vessel Operators unfamiliar or unaware of safe manning requirements • USCG inconsistent application of safe manning principals and requirements

  24. Safe Manning International Voyage • A voyage between a country to which SOLAS applies and a port outside that country. • For the purposes of this subchapter, vessels are not considered as being on an "international voyage" when solely navigating the Great Lakes and the St. Lawrence River as far east as a straight line drawn from Cap des Rosiers to West Point, Anticosti Island and, on the north side of Anticosti Island, the 63rd meridian 46 CFR 24.10-1

  25. Safe Manning Foreign Voyage • A vessel engaged on a foreign voyage means a vessel to which this chapter applies • arriving at a place under the jurisdiction of the United States from a place in a foreign country • making a voyage between places outside the United States; or • departing from a place under the jurisdiction of the United States for a place in a foreign country. 46 USC 32.01

  30. Safe Manning Document - SMD - Flag-state authorization to deviate from a 3 watch System Provides port-states with flag-state’s vessel specific manning levels For inspected vessels, the vessel’s COI is the SMD
