Precautions
Again you can see in this Photo how easily someone
o
r something could become trapped, or get

A Safety Officer is recommended. Training rules!Slide14
Rescue Platform
Operations
The FBO will be in the Wheelhouse and will operate the on/off switch and also be an observer over the operation. (Good sight lines) He will also know if any other equipment is running. The Captain and the FBO will determine if it is safe to deploy the Rescue Platform.
Communications are paramount in these operations, both on and off our vessel. We recommend that a set of verbal commands become standardized on both of these vessels while operating the rescue platform.
In an active Rescue Operation, a minimum of 5 crew members should be involved. 1. The FBO in the wheelhouse 2. Captain is the safety Officer 3. One of the Engineers are at the hydraulic controls 4. Two of the Deckhands will be the Rescue/Tenders for the operation involving the platform.
O
ne on the Platform Step. The other at the Bulwark opening. In a Rescue Operation, ALL personnel on deck, must be wearing a PFD. (Mustangs) Crew members may also consider using some kind of a tethering-fall restraint while working with the platform.
Any hydraulically controlled movement by the Engineer must be requested by the
R
escue personnel and/or the Captain, verified by an “ALL CLEAR” before any movement occurs.
The crane can be considered for lifting/overhead lighting, conditions permitting.
