What is meaning of Planning of Recovery of person from water as per SOLAS ?

  • Have a plan;
  • Make sure everyone understands the plan and their own place in it;
  • Be prepared; and
  • Have everyone ready, with all the equipment they need, before commencing the recovery operation.

You may not have much time to think about details when the emergency happens; but if you have thought about your capabilities beforehand and you have trained to use them effectively. In short, if you are prepared. You will not need much time.

Remember that plans are of no use unless you know how to put them into effect. This requires training, and the testing of both plans and training by exercise.
