A thorough annual examination and operational test of your lifeboats, rescue boats, davits, winches and release gear. Every annual inspection is carried out in accordance with MSC.402(96), and you receive clear reporting and certification for your records and for class and flag state surveys.
The five-yearly thorough examination goes further: overhaul of the on-load release gear, a full check of the launching appliance and a dynamic test of the winch brake. We plan the work around your vessel's schedule, so it fits into port calls and dry-dock periods.
When an inspection uncovers wear or damage, we fix it. Our technicians repair and overhaul lifeboats, rescue boats, davits, winches, hooks and release systems, from small corrective work to complete overhauls. Because we keep most parts in stock, repairs are often finished during the same visit.
We carry out static and dynamic load tests on davits, winches and launching appliances, using calibrated test equipment and water bags. Each test is fully documented and certified, giving you proof that your equipment performs as required.
