Bridge Resource Management for Small Ships

Satellite systems, ARPA, electronic charts, AIS, sophisticated communication equipment and integrated navigational systems all these advanced technologies provide valuable capabilities. But accidents still happen, and they usually involve human error. This simple fact has made Bridge Resource Management (BRM) training a requirement for watch keepers worldwide. Bridge Resource Management for Small Ships: The Watch keeper's Manual for Limited-Tonnage Vessels is the first book to address the unique needs of operators of small ships (limited-tonnage vessels) including tugs, ferries, yachts, and other passenger-carrying vessels.
