Standard
Develop a brief passage plan
Brief crew on that passage plan
Have back up / contingency plan for bad
weather or restricted visibility.
Understand how to plan taking into account
pertinent factors. Navigate in all conditions with due regard for
best seamanship practices.

Passage Planning
Passage planning is the methodology that is
required to get a vessel from A to B safely.
This is achieved by knowing the capabilitiesof the vessel plus equipment and its
limitations, the crew and their limitations, the
likely weather and tide conditions during the
passage, and the navigational hazards onroute.

Passage Planning
It is a matter of setting up vessel and crew for
a successful passage. Getting it wrong..

Where to Go
First item is knowing where you would like to
go - place of interest, rendezvous, en route in
longer passage, medical, maintenance,restocking, re-fuelling, etc.

Assess Feasibility
With destination selected , choose most
appropriate route for type of vessel, taking
into account weather, time of year, ice, tidalstreams.
Keep alternatives en route in mind, for
emergencies or simply change of mind.

Contingency Plans
Pre plan possible alternative routes to
destination, along with alternative way-points.
Indicate decision points with time, whereweather changes, tide restricted and / or
proximity, dangers may necessitate change
of route.
Mark emergency anchorages or turning
areas.
Appreciate nearest ports (e.g. medical )

On Passage

CANADIAN COAST GUARD AUXILIARY - PACIFIC
On Passage
Monitor the position of the vessel at frequent
enough intervals that any error will not result
in putting the vessel in danger. Generally this means that there will always be
one more position fix on the chart before the
vessel was placed in danger - if necessary
shorten the position fixing period.
Monitor time, speed, course, weather, sea
state.

On Passage
Assess crew state of alertness.
Involve all in the safe navigation, and provide
input where needed.
Monitor need to activate contingency plans.

Passage Planning for Rescue
Vessels As rescue vessels can be called out at short
notice in adverse conditions, preplan safe
routes out to the limits of the stations area. If available, preload way-points onto the
plotter and construct routes which can be
called up in a hurry.
Practice using these routes on all occasions,to build up confidence in them.
