In the maritime industry, even the smallest oversight can escalate into a major safety hazard if left unchecked. Our September 2025 inspections revealed recurring issues that highlight the need for constant vigilance, compliance, and crew awareness. Key findings this month: Mooring Winch Overlaps Overlapping turns on mooring winch split drums increase rope damage & unsafe release risks. Action: Crew training + routine checks to ensure proper line arrangement. Ref: IMO MSC.1/Circ.1175, SOLAS Ch. II-1 Reg. 3-8 2 Paint Drums Stored Above Safety Line Paint drums were stacked beyond the fire system coverage in paint lockers. Action: Reorganize storage, label lockers, and train crew on safe limits. Ref: SOLAS Ch. II-2 Reg. 10, IMO MSC.1/Circ.1318 3 Missing Insulation on Bridge Consoles Lack of insulating rubber on bridge wing consoles exposed crew to electrical risks. Action: Install rubber mats, include inspections in safety routines. Ref: SOLAS Ch. II-1 Reg. 45, IEC 60092-504
