Since\r\nthe initial publication of the third edition in 2001, many\r\nsubstantive changes have occurred in both the legal and operational\r\nenvironments, affecting seagoing vessels and their crews. In response to\r\nthese changes, this book has been completely updated and been renamed to\r\ninclude masters on all seagoing vessels, including oceangoing tugs. A\r\ncomplete guide for the newly appointed master, it is also useful to\r\nexperienced masters as a checklist for the voluminous paperwork required\r\nin all phases of business aboard, including shipping articles, vessel\r\ndocuments and certificates, crew lists, customs and immigration\r\nrequirements, accounting procedures, bills of lading, charter parties,\r\nvessel accidents, and logbooks.\r\nThe master of a vessel is required to comply with state and federal laws\r\nthat apply to the vessel and crew, the laws of foreign countries when\r\nthe vessel is in their waters, and applicable international law.\r\nMastering the details of these various jurisdictions can be\r\nintimidating, but this handbook demystifies the regulations and states\r\nthe requirements in plain language.\r\nNew topics in the fourth edition include vessel security, communications,\r\nand flag etiquette. Useful appendixes give details on various agencies\r\nand contact personnel, acronyms and definitions, and medical evacuation\r\nand travelers’ insurance companies.\r\n[AuthorName]By Tamara C.
