Use this inland shipping safety assessment checklist to review bridge operations, crew handover, required documentation, logbooks and stability calculations. Confirm charts and publications are current, compass error tracked, AIS and VHF configured, and UKC managed. Inspect fire plans and LSA/FFA maintenance, life rafts and lifejackets. In the engine room, verify Oil Record Book, bunkering controls, CO2 and detection systems, and tool condition. Walk around to check waste management, PPE compliance, chemical storage with MSDS, anchors and gangway readiness, marked escape routes, horn and ropes, and firefighting systems. Test cranes, winches, radar, bilge pumps, and ensure life buoys and PPE for all crew. Review procedures for emergencies, bunkering, mooring, hot work, enclosed space entry, and towing, then capture findings and signatures.
