LAUNCH OF THE SIXTH EDITION OF THE BRIDGE PROCEDURES GUIDE - MEMBER 20% DISCOUNT

Circular Ref: A(22)11

The ICS will release the latest edition of the Bridge Procedures Guide on Wednesday 19 January. For over 40 years, this bestselling Guide has reflected and defined current best practice on the bridges of merchant ships operating in all sectors and trades. Now in its sixth edition, it is widely acknowledged as the leading industry guidance on safe bridge procedures and is a recommended carriage on all vessels by the International Maritime Organization (IMO).


 


Regularly used by Masters, watchkeeping officers, shipping companies, training institutions and accident investigators worldwide, the Guide continues to be an essential tool for those in charge of a navigational watch.


 


Thoroughly revised and updated to be relevant to today’s international shipping landscape, the new edition provides clear guidance on best practice approaches to watchkeeping that make safe and effective use of modern technology, and embrace internationally agreed standards and recommendations adopted by the IMO. The sixth edition supersedes and replaces the fifth edition, which was withdrawn from sale in October 2021.


 


ICS extends its thanks and gratitude to members who contributed to the working group.
