Marine Vessel Maintenance Annual Inspection

This annual marine vessel maintenance checklist helps crews and inspectors verify the condition and safe operation of propulsion engines, generators, steering systems, reduction gear boxes and couplings. It covers firefighting equipment including fire pumps, hoses, nozzles, portable extinguishers and suppression systems, as well as electrical systems, alarms and control panels. The checklist prompts inspection of labelling, guarding, PPE, tools and housekeeping. It includes sections for maintenance records, lockout tagout logs, waste and oil disposal records, hazardous materials, and marine sanitation devices. Vessel interior and exterior checks include bilges, lighting, rails, winches, hatches and seals. Use this template to document findings, note defects, and plan corrective actions for compliance and safe voyages.
