A military Chinook helicopter hovers above a rib boat on the water, with soldiers conducting a tactical operation, demonstrating an impressive display of coordination and precision. Helm coaching is often treated as an art. In rough water operations it needs to become a controlled process, because the outcome affects injury risk, passenger comfort, and through-life costs. The aim is not to criticise the helm. It is to reduce repeated high-severity events without compromising

Lifeboat in Heavy Sea Wave impact monitoring is not about collecting data for the sake of it. It is about reducing repeated high-severity shocks that drive fatigue, injury risk, and premature wear on high-speed craft. Most operators already know when a run felt rough. What is usually missing is an objective record that lets you answer three practical questions: 1. Where did the worst impacts happen 2. What was the vessel doing at the time 3. What change reduced the severity o

Police patrol boat navigating rough seas, typical high-speed workboat subject to MGN 436 WBV monitoring requirements Workboat Code Edition 3 is in force. Existing vessels move across at the next renewal, or by three years after 13 December 2023, whichever is later. The first big milestone date is 13 December 2026. MGN 436 is guidance. The legal duties sit in the Merchant Shipping vibration regulations. Workboat Code Edition 3 then makes WBV and repeated shock control a real-w
