Introduction
Welcome to Revision 02 of the VShips VMS documentation which includes a substantial amount of suggestions and observations from both seastaff and shorestaff We therefore thank all those thathave continued to contribute to the revision of the electronic VMS
Amendments and additions to these procedures have been highlighted in blue for easy reference A summary of the changes made in Revision 02 will be sent in Circular Letter format
Revision 02 follows the same format as Revision 01 and the changes mainly consist of textamendments additional regulations and updates and more links to further information
As the majority of existing staff both shore and sea based are now familiar with the system thefollowing instructions are directed at new members of staff that may not have had an opportunity tofamiliarise themselves with the system
The Main Menu displayed on theright of this page provides links intoeach section of the VMS referencedocuments and log books
The documents beyond the MainMenu provide summaries of the
more detailed procedures thatshould be familiar to most officersHowever the thinking behind thislevel is to provide a simplercondensed format which will beeasier to use for officers wanting toldquorefreshrdquo their memory as well as abetter reference for officers aboutto be or who have just beenpromoted
The links within the ldquosummary filesrdquo consist of detailed explanations and useful reference materialsthat were previously either included in the text of the manuals or excluded due to the size Most of this material is useful for training or for reference when an unexpected or infrequent event occurs
