Pilot Transfer Arrangement references

Part 53 of the New Zealand Maritime Rules puts into force the requirements of SOLAS Chapter V Regulation 23 and IMO Resolution A1045 (27).

Due to the ambiguity of language and different interpretations of the regulation, further guidance has been published by Maritime New Zealand to be read in conjunction with Part 53.

In addition to regulation, ISO 799 (parts 1 to 3) defines specifications for the design and construction of pilot ladders and equipment. Visit iso.org
