Small vessel engine failure study launched at Seawork

In response to the reported concern of the British Governments Department of Transport (DoT) about the growing number of small vessel engine failures at sea in recent years, and the resulting increased burden on the public services, the Small Ship Group of the Institute of Marine Engineers, Scientists and Technologists (IMarEST) has initiated a simple reporting procedure for failures to gather initial data from owners, operators, insurers and their surveyors, as well as the rescue services.
