'This guide serves as a useful handrail and practical source of advice for any bridge team, aspiring deck officer or captain...' – From the foreword by Vice Admiral (Retd) Sir Martin Connell KCB CBE
The essential guide to safe and effective bridge procedures for yacht officers and deck students.
This practical resource will give you the confidence to manage and work on the navigating bridge effectively, reduce errors and communicate clearly during routine and critical operations. Covering modern navigational practices, role-specific advice, bridge resource management and passage planning, it aligns with STCW-95 standards and supports both training and onboard practice. It is a vital textbook for all those studying and preparing for Flag State professional qualifications.
Fully updated to reflect technological advances, this handbook draws on years of sea time, instructing and mentoring experience into practical advice that aids all deck officer ranks to become trusted professionals. It includes forewords from Superyacht Captain Brendan O'Shannassy and Vice Admiral (Retd) Sir Martin Connell KCB CBE, and addresses real-world challenges often overlooked in classroom training, from balancing work and rest under MLC rules to preparing for audits and Flag inspections. Relevant for large yachts, cruise ships and all seagoing vessels, it is packed with photographs, templates and checklists to help you stay compliant and safe.
