PASSAGE PLANNING GUIDELINES 2025
RADAR AND ARPA, SAFE NAV WATCH AND TEAMWORK ON THE NAV BRIDGE
The fully updated edition of 'Passage Planning Guidelines 2025' includes four separate publications presented in a slipcase. These titles discuss the latest procedures, guidance and best practice required for good navigation.
The following titles are included in 'Passage Planning Guidelines 2025':
- 'Passage Planning Guidelines 2025 (inc. Preparations for Inspections)'
- 'Radar and ARPA'
- 'Safe Nav Watch'
- 'Teamwork on the Nav Bridge'
'Passage Planning Guidelines 2025 (inc. Preparations for Inspections)' focuses on the appraisal and preparation stages of voyage planning using traditional methods, paper charts and ECDIS. This edition now includes two new chapters covering execution and monitoring, as well as new guidance on preparation for PSC, audits and inspections.
The guidelines reflect the industry's shift towards ECDIS and ENCs as the primary means of navigation, while still covering traditional paper chart methods. This edition provides updated imagery, detailed ECDIS passage planning guidance and practical calculation examples. The annexes of the 'Passage Planning Guidelines 2025' provide detailed templates of passage planning checklists, including an ECDIS planning checklist and appraisal report.
'Safe Nav Watch' provides essential guidance on safe navigational watchkeeping, identifying potential hazards and how to avoid them. Drawing on the expertise of experienced mariners, the book reinforces best practices in line with all applicable SOLAS amendments and bridge equipment performance standards.
Advice relating to bridge practices for navigating extreme weather, has been expanded with updated guidance on weather routeing and charts. New sections on helicopter operations, anchoring and watchkeeping at anchor have been added to bridge practices for navigating coastal areas. Chapter eight, 'Lessons from Navigation Incidents', features new and current case studies which analyse real-world errors and advise the industry-approved best practices for preventing similar incidents.
'Teamwork on the Nav Bridge' is based on original text from a leading trainer of cockpit resource management. The text has been fully revised and updated to reflect the importance of defending against the consequences of human error. It includes guidance on subjects such as situational awareness, decision-making by the bridge team and the concept of bridge resource management (BRM). It also details the importance of keeping fit for duty, ensuring adequate rest and managing the circumstances that contribute to fatigue on board.
Radar is a vital tool for safe navigation and collision avoidance at sea, providing continuous situational awareness in both clear and restricted visibility. A new 'Radar and ARPA' guide has been added to the 2025 guidelines. It explores the principles of marine radar operation, the integration of ARPA for target tracking and the essential skills required for effective radar interpretation. Covering key regulations, including Rule 7 of the COLREGs, and the importance of understanding radar capabilities and limitations, this book is an essential resource for navigators seeking to enhance their proficiency in radar use.
