| Launching of Life Boat in Emergency |
|
|
|
As soon as I take orders from Master |
|
Sound singnal, I will wear my PPE with life jacket |
|
proceed to designated station |
|
Established Communication |
|
Collect my crew with PPE and Life Jacket(check whistle,lights etc) |
|
Head count |
|
Brief them their duties once again |
|
Railling removed , see for obstruction remove , proper illmination, boat falls checked |
|
See over board side clear |
|
Don’t mention harbour pins |
|
since they are removed P.O.B or sailing |
|
Gripesto be removed from the deck |
|
Will check overbroadside and lower embarkation ladder |
|
First will send two person in one will start eng another put plugs in life line to be raleased |
|
in boat itself for free most while lowering |
|
Fwd painter to be passed and made fast to strong point , when at embrakation level |
|
Release tracing pendent and make fast bows in tackel |
|
All sit in boat except which man |
|
lower the boat slowly, checking the overside |
|
Release fall hooks together and water borne |
|
Once water borne the finial person to be in boat |
|
Make 45 deg angle less then by boat hook & 90 deg towards wind water side |
|
Before going additionally I will try to bring in chat EPIRB,SART, Binoculars, Extra ration , fresh water, warm clothing, blankets , walki taki &area charts |
|
Notes:stay away from sinking /emergency ground , but stay near the area while lowering falls hooks both to be released together |
|
|
| DAVIT LAUNCHED INFLATABLE LIFERAFT |
|
|
|
See for adequate illiumination |
|
Remove guardrails . Obsturction |
|
Rasie raft from deck by davit, hold bowsing lines at each end of raft hold painter line &short red ferline |
|
Slew the davit arm overside , make fast bowsing lines & painters |
|
Check overside obstn,inflate by pulling sharply the red fireline |
|
Once make sure raft is well secured to deck by bowing lines |
|
Ensure all personnel ‘s are correctly wearing their life jacketc |
|
Board the raft make sure it doesn’t tilt since supported by one wire |
|
Once boarding is complete, release bowsing lines and painter and check all clean around below below the raft and then lower away. |
|
Once in water, release the raft and allow to drift clear of immidate danger, before streamingsea anchor Instructions for the |
|
launching in close proximity to the launching station, Emergency lighting means of access drills of above every 4 months by special liferaft |
|
|
| MANUAL LAUNCHING OF AN INFLATABLE LIFERAFT |
|
|
|
Look overside clear for launching the raft. |
|
Ensure painter is secured to a strong point. |
|
Remove any side railing, obstructions, chain etc |
|
Remove any securing arrangements from the raft itself |
|
If safe to launch then throw the raft to overable checking obstruction |
|
Pull painter to full length to inflate the raft |
|
Once raft is inflated (should normally take 1 to 3mins) dependent on climatic conditions then board as soon as possible by means of rope or ladder provided Never jump directly into a raft from any height |

Checks for leaks |
|
With mask on face close cylinder value and hold breath. Observe pressure if it does fall more than set is not leak tight |
|
Check rubber part, o-rings and mask |
|
Clean mask with weak solution of teepol and dried out |

| SCBA PREPARATIONS |
|
Don the appartus then adjust the harness for comfortable fit |
|
Open cylinder valve , put on mask and adjust to fit . |
|
Inhale 2-3 times to ensure that the air is flowing freely from the demand valve and that the exhalation valve is functioning correctly . |
|
Hold breath and make certain that the demand valve is shuting of an exchalation or the leakage if any is slight |
|
Close cylinder value and inhole until the air in the apparatus is exhuasted. listen for the low level audiable alarm , & watch the pressure guage return to zero . The mask should also crush onto the face indicating air tight fit |
|
Re open cylinder values |
