Popis: | This paper analyses components of the ship system with regard to the recommendations that have impact on the safety of maritime navigation according to the evaluation of port control inspections. What the research particularly examined are recommendations (deficiencies), i.e. cases when ships are not allowed to proceed to sea and continue their navigation. The results of the comparative and SWOT analyses are presented, as well as the functional dependence (tendency) of not complying with specific ship components concerning the age of the ship. Both the results of the research and the performed analyses show that the majority of recommendations concern the emergency systems, i.e. the safety of navigation and rescue appliances, while the least number of recommendations has been recorded in the training and drills of the crew for emergency situations. What has also been established is that by a better on-board training of the crew and better education of seafarers it is possible to reduce the number of recommendations (deficiencies). The age of the ship, which has also been found to contribute to the increasing number of recommendations (deficiencies), constitutes the objective reason for this due to the current unsatisfactory financial situation in the market. |
