A brand new security alert issued by the National Transportation Safety Board (NTSB) urges vessel house owners and operators to supply every crewmember with a private locator machine. These units enhance a mariner’s likelihood of rescue throughout an emergency.

During an emergency at sea, a mariner’s likelihood of survival decreases if search and rescue can’t rapidly and precisely determine their location. Personal locator units, corresponding to private locator beacons (PLB) or satellite tv for pc emergency notification units (SEND), can precisely pinpoint an individual’s location. NTSB investigations discovered that at the moment out there private locator beacons present a location accuracy of about 300 toes and a virtually instantaneous search and rescue notification when activated.

The NTSB mentioned vessel house owners and operators ought to take into account the next when choosing and implementing crew use of non-public locator units:

The security alert notes six casualties NTSB has investigated the place private locator units may have assisted or did help rescuers in finding survivors, together with the rescue of all aboard the fishing vessel Ambition after a crewmember’s use of a SEND prompted an instantaneous response when the vessel started to flood within the Bering Sea in 2016.
