Carriage Requirements
Regulations
The SOLAS regulations are generally regarded as the most important of all international treaties concerning safety at sea. The main goal of the regulations is to specify the standards for the hardware, construction, and operation of ships, to guarantee safety.
One Solution is one of the frontrunners when it comes to extensive knowledge about the International regulations regarding navigation and communication carriage requirements of your vessel.
