Survival at Sea - The Lifeboat and
Liferaft (First Published 1971 - 4th Edition revised 1988)
By C.H.Wright.
The object in writing this book is to provide not only a
reliable and useful guide for candidates attempting the Department of Transport and
Industry examinations for Certified Lifeboatmen, but also a description of the latest aids
available which contribute towards safety of life at sea, together with the means whereby
they can be used to the best advantage and which can be understood by all who sail the
sea.
While only the regulations concerning foreign-going British
Merchant Ships have been quoted, these regulations incorporate the life saving regulations
applicable to most other vessels. Aids not required by these regulations have also been
included in an effort to make the book fully comprehensive.
In addition the merchant seamen, we trust that fishermen,
trawlermen, yachtsmen, and air-crews will find much useful material included, be they
sailors, engineers, radio-operators, or members of the catering department. The period of
qualifying sea service may be served in any type of sea going vessel.
All whose business takes them either on or over the oceans
should possess a knowledge of the means available to them to assist in saving lives in an
emergency and how to use them. For if they do not know beforehand, they will most
certainly not know when sudden disaster unexpectedly strikes.
