Perth Boat School recreational training vessels are all one or more of the following: • Grandfathered under the old ’Survey Exempt’ rule (DoT Survey Exempt requirements are in Appendix) • Scheme NS (No Survey) vessel Also most come under; • Exemption 02 (don’t need a Survey, i.e. NS) • Exemption 03 (under 7.5m vessels don’t need to be on a Certificate of Operation - CoO) They are also classified as 'AMSA Division 2' vessels: • Recreational training vessel <24m long only within inshore waters and also • Class 2 vessel, <12m, Operating only in D or E class waters With so many overlapping classifications and rules and exemptions, it is extremely difficult to know all requirements, particularly with changes occurring frequently. We have requested AMSA provide one ‘single definitive concise list’ that applies to all typical Recreational Training vessels 4.5m to 6m being used in D and E water, however to date this has not occurred, instead the regulator refers us to NSCV documents and tables that refer to other documents that in turn refer to other Australian Standards etc. As best we can, we have gone through the regulatory documentation and determined that the below applies to our vessels. Any person with information relating to changes needed to any of the information in this SMS is to notify PBS in writing so that changes can be made as and when necessary. FLOTATION All our poly vessels have basic flotation, in fact even though there are only 2 ‘versions’ of flotation, those being; (1) basic flotation and (2) level flotation, in fact our Poly vessels are constructed of material that is less dense than water, and thus they themselves in every part of the poly are ‘flotation’ which is different to aluminium constructed vessels as the poly vessels in every part are flotation, whereas other vessels need to carry additional flotation. Note: Flotation Devices (e.g. for M.O.B.) available include: Fenders, MOB float, spare Life Jackets etc REQUIREMENTS ON ALL PBS VESSELS SEE APPENDIX 4 1 SMS trailer Vessel.docx Page 5 of 58 edited by MC Beanland on 08 Apr 2020 valid only at time of printing live document edit after each use For local WA operations, read the Grandfathered ‘Survey Exempt’ requirements – see appendix 4 document. Safety equipment required on small Coxswain level vessels differs depending whether operations are into ‘unprotected’ or ‘protected’ waters. For vessels with multiple Surveys and Schemes, the Skipper will need to ascertain which standards apply, based on the information in the Certificate of Operation and AMSA documentation. For a students vessel, student will need to adjust the below list to suit the specific Vessel, Task and Area that you are using so that it matches the AMSA requirements. These are on AMSA website (this may have changed so check and update this as needed); COMPLIANCE LIST FOR TYPICAL COMMENTS COXSWAIN CRAFT Certificate of Operation - check against ID number on vessel - check date of Certificate expiry - check restrictions and note here Logbook/s (there may be an engine log, a maintenance log, and a task log) - in office or on boat Pen / method of logging items Buoyant appliances/lifebuoys* If vessel has flotation – need evidence - or combination for 100%* - or dinghy for 100%* *unless vessel is fitted with level flotation Suitable equipment to sustain and recover not required? persons overboard, e.g. heaving line with rescue quoit, ladder, sling, net.
