ANNEXURE 2

SIGHT TESTS

1. EXAMINATION DATES AND PLACES

Examination dates and places shall be by appointment asarranged with the examiner at the nearest port.

2. THE CONDUCT OF THE TESTS

The purpose of these tests shall be to ensure that thecandidate's eyesight is sufficiently good to enable him to pickup and identify correctly the lights of distant ships at sea. Forthis purpose a candidate shall be required to attain certainminimum standards both of form and colour vision.

A sight test shall comprise a letter and a lantern test takenin that order. The tests shall be conducted under the strictpersonal supervision of a sight test examiner, who shall keepa record of all mistakes made by the candidate both in theletter test and the lantern test.

Every candidate seeking admission to an examination for afirst certificate of competency as Coxswain (Rescue Vessels)shall hold a sight test certificate issued by the Department ofTransport showing that he has passed both letter and lanterntests within the six-month period preceding the date of exami­nation. For certificates of competency subsequent to the first,a sight test certificate fulfilling the conditions in respect of theletter test only shall be required.
