The Compulsory Fitting of Seaborne Radar Collision Avoidance Systems: A Discussion

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  23 November 2009

Abstract

Certain measures now before IMCO require all vessels of particular classes to carry automatic radar plotting devices with a specified level of performance. Tankers over 10 000 tons trading to the United States will be required to carry such equipment from 1982 and the IMCO requirements will apply progressively to different categories of vessel over 10 000 tons from 1984–89.

The Technical Committee met in open session in London on 16 January 1980 to discuss the implication of these measures and some of the contributions to the discussion are printed below.
