In such incidents the actions taken can be the difference between survival and catastrophic loss. Marine Emergencies discusses the different types of marine emergency that you may face then follows these up with to-do lists, coping strategies and case studies.

Complying with International Maritime Organisation standards of shipboard training and operation, this title covers everything from fire and collision right through to the legal implications of salvage, making it a must for all responsible seafarers.
