11.4 Applicability 11.4.1 In identifying the required skills for MASS operators, the organisation should consider:
n The size of the Vessel, e.g. vessels under 24m in length, as defined by the Workboat Code; or by n The Class of the Vessel - see MCA Guidance on Vessel classification and certification at
https://www.gov.uk/guidance/vessel-classification-and-certification;
n The areas of operations: The MCA / NWA Workboat Code for Vessels defines a range of areas of operation as included in Chapter 2 – Definitions;
n The Nature of the Cargo: appropriate training for the carriage and care of Dangerous Cargoes (see Paragraph 15.5.1).
11.5 Owner / Manager Responsibilities
11.5.1 As a responsible industry, it is essential that companies also implement a training, development and appraisal system for their MASS Operators and related personnel. Training needs should be identified and facilitated such that an appraisal system and competence scheme operates in an integrated manner. Table 11.1 below provides guidance on qualifications for categories of MASS. Large MASS are included for reference only.
11.5.2 It should be noted that the MASS Class of ‘High Speed’ may require further delineation of operator qualification depending on their size. Whilst MASS under 12m length may be operated under an RYA PB (Power Boat) certificate, this should be kept under review depending on their operating risk area and the capabilities of the vessel.
