THE Nautical Institute has published a Shiphandling Logbook to help mariners develop shiphandling skills while undergoing training at sea.
The logbook is intended to serve as a tool to help manage the development of shiphandling skills and take advantage of training opportunities. Seafarers will be able to record and reflect on their experiences, provide evidence of what they have learned and identify skills gaps.
The Nautical Institute's project director David Patraiko said: 'Mariners should take advantage of every opportunity to improve their understanding of shiphandling, to identify any additional learning they need and to arrange for this to happen.'
He continued: 'The logbook should encourage mentoring, which costs very little, if anything, and is essential to the learning of shiphandling. If done well, it will lead to greater safety, as the skill levels and confidence of officers will increase.'
The logbook includes a complete list of manoeuvres and the knowledge required under the International Convention on Standards of Training, Certification and Watchkeeping for Seafarers (STCW).
