Introduction
Safe navigation is dependent upon a bridge system, which ensures that the craft at all times proceeds on a correct course and speed in relation to destination, waters, traffic and weather conditions. Consequently, the main functions to be performed by the bridge system shall decide, execute and maintain a correct course and speed.
The objectives of the rules in this chapter are to enhance safety and efficiency in bridge operation by governing the factors influencing the navigators capability to maintain a safe course and speed.
The rules stipulate a nautical safety standard for High Speed Craft equivalent to or exceeding the SOLAS convention, HSC Code 2000 as amended, (IMO Res. MSC.97(73)) and establish conditions that simplify the fulfilment of the STCW convention and COLREG convention.
The rules are based on functional requirements and give guidelines as to how the rules can be met. Text quoted from the International Code of Safety for High-Speed Craft (2000 HSC Code) is printed in italics.
