Marine Accident Investigation Branch

Dear Club Officer,

The RYA is pleased to inform clubs about the following service being offered by the Marine Accident Investigation Branch (MAIB). The MAIB is part of the government's Department for Transport but is completely independent of the Maritime and Coastguard Agency (MCA).
We can all learn valuable safety lessons from real life incidents and reports on some of these are available in the Marine Accident Investigation Branch's (MAIB) special Safety Digest for the leisure craft sector. This edition contains 25 articles covering sail and power, many of which are used on RYA shore based and practical courses as key learning aides.

You can obtain your copy of the Leisure Craft Safety Digest free of charge from the MAIB.

by E-mail:
maibpublications@dft.gsi.gov.uk   or by phone: 023 8039 5510.

The digest is also available online at
www.maib.gov.uk
We hope you find this service useful. Please circulate this information to your club membership as you think appropriate.

kind regards

Paul Bayliss
