exlondoner Posted November 14, 2023 #2 Share Posted November 14, 2023 I hope they’ll let her go a bit faster. She seems to be trudging up the Channel at present. I sincerely hope she needs some sort of certification. 🙂 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope the heck so - I need a safety certificate every four years to take a narrow boat carrying six people the canal system. Lovely bloke called Steve from Peterborough does mine!

While a national agency of the flag state (like the MCA) can issue a certificate of seaworthiness, most do not. They rely on a set of approved classification societies like Lloyd's Register, Det Norske Veritas, or American Bureau of Ships, among others, to do the actual surveying of the vessel, and issuing of the certificate. While ships will have dozens of certificates to show they meet the various requirements of various maritime conventions, typically the only one issued by the flag state is the Certificate of Registry (think of a car's title). The rest are issued by the class societies. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
