The cover photo of Coast Guard Safety Alerts 1996-2014 is chilling: A large ship is awash in ocean water and is about to sink. The report is a compilation of safety alerts on a myriad of maritime safety issues such as “Attention on Deck! Commercial Fishing Vessels,” “Unprepared Safety Equipment,” “Bow Riding in Heavy Weather,” “Watertight Doors: Close Them and Dog Them,” and many more. Read, apply, and keep a safe ship for all.
