Waterside Patrol and Watching the Water
Readiness training. Guarding.Tech does not grant any official certificate, licence or authority.
This is a knowledge course. It is not ISPS Code training and is not recognised by any port or maritime authority.
A port has a fence on three sides and open water on the fourth. Anyone with a boat can come close.
You cannot stop a boat from the quay. You can see it, describe it well and report it fast. Then the people with boats and legal powers can act in time.
Focus: watch the water as part of every round, describe what you see in a way others can use, and report early.
Learning objectives
- Say what a guard on land can and cannot control on the water side.
- Carry out a waterside patrol safely.
- Notice boats, swimmers and objects that should be reported.
- Describe a boat clearly by radio.
