Why Use I.C. Brindle Manuals?

Our popular Training Manuals take the time and hard work out of preparing such a Manual. They are easy-to-read, up-to-date, user friendly documents, presented in an A4, loose-leaf format. The main body describes equipment and procedures generically, and the final section allows the user to insert details of equipment and procedures applicable to a specific vessel, thus making each document unique and fully compliant with the SOLAS or other legislative requirements applicable to a particular vessel.

The Manuals provide all crew members with general information and instructions concerning the purpose and use of all life-saving appliances and/or fire equipment on board. The loose-leaf presentation permits simple amendment and updating ofdetails relating to a vessel’s equipment and procedures. Use of our Manuals enhances the professional image of the owners and operators and provides uniformity where used across a fleet.

Options include the use of an owner’s own covers, page headers or footers incorporating the owner’s or vessel’s QA control requirements and/or the owner’s or vessel’s logo. Another option is for I.C. Brindle & Co Ltd, to prepare vessel-specific Manuals,either following a survey or from the information gleaned in response to our questionnaire.
