Phase 1 - Bridge Visibility / Collision Avoidance

The initial phase of the campaign conducted between 1 December 2000 and 31 March 2001 focused on collision avoidance issues. During this phase AMSA surveyor's inspected 1057 vessels, of which 132 (12% of those inspected) recorded deficiencies in the following areas.

Bridge visibility, with emphasis on the effect of cargo on visibility, accounted for 4% of the deficiencies recorded, The operation of radars accounted for 11% of the deficiencies recorded, Navigation lights, both to ensure their serviceability and the effect posed by cargo on their visibility, accounted for 85% of the deficiencies recorded.

The high proportion of the deficiencies relating to navigation lights etc. were primarily due to a lack of maintenance. All vessels with deficiencies had at least one deficiency relating to navigation lights, shapes and whistles. Two vessels had deficiencies that warranted a detention.
