The Shipmaster's Business Self-Examiner 11th Edition

The Shipmaster's Business Self-Examiner 11th Edition For 26 years The Shipmaster's Business Self-Examiner has been the indispensable companion for all mariners studying for their MCA Master's Orals exams. As a study aid, it is unrivalled. This 11th edition retains the familiar question-and-answer format of its predecessors but has been redesigned to provide a much-improved user experience. Navigation through the complexities of the Master's duties has been eased by splitting the subject into 114 topics. The text has been completely revised and updated to the end of Q1/2024, reflecting the many changes to maritime legislation and MCA guidance since Britain's exit from the EU. An introductory section provides practical guidance on preparing for and answering Master's Orals. The Q&As follow closely the topics covered in recent Orals questions and better reflect the needs of today's shipping industry. The reorganisation of the material enhances the 11th edition's value as a reference for the newly qualified Master and for all who have decision-making responsibilities at sea and onshore. Significantly updated to reflect new changes and amendments, this extensive volume is presented in its familiar 'Q&A' format but has been redesigned to provide a much-improved user experience. It is the most up-to-date book on maritime legislation encompassing changes made to UK law and maritime guidance as a result of Brexit and changes to STCW, BWMC, MARPOL, MLC and other conventions. The highly anticipated 11th edition of this must-have reference book, The Ship Master's Business Self Examiner. This ever-popular publication has, for more than 20 years, found a comfortable home on the bookshelf of deck officers preparing for their professional exams and those in command keen to be reminded of the rules, regulations, laws and customs that underpin the ship's business and the role the Master plays within it. Written by Malcolm Maclachlan and revised by Simon Daniels and Forkanul Quader, this extensive volume will be presented in its familiar Q&A format and also be useful to those preparing for UK Legal and Administrative Procedures (UKLAP) exams as part of the requirements for a UK certificate of equivalent competency (CEC).
