It’s the responsibility of the vessel owner / operator to ensure that SOLAS Inflatable LSA is serviced at a competent, approved servicing station which:
- is authorised to service the particular product make/type,
- is accepted by the MCA which demonstrates compliance with IMO Res. A.761(18) to maintain proper servicing facilities,
- uses only properly trained personnel (evidence of personnel authorisation certification by the Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM).
The operation and maintenance manual will also include a list of authorised service stations where the ship operator can request relevant services.
