Description: This is the third edition of Standard Club’s guide to Berthing, first produced in 2004. This new version includes further
content on berthing aids, snap-back zones and bow thrusters. The guide also provides guidance on electronic berthing aids and detailed
tug assistance.
This guide sets out to promote best practice and raise awareness of the risks of berthing.
The purpose of this guide is to provide some insight into what can go wrong and why, why ships are designed the way they are, why ships
handle the way they do and how to berth them. In the final chapter, there is advice on pilotage. On its own, the guide will not teach you
how to become a ship handler, but it does provide background material to help a good ship handler become a better one.
Throughout the berthing examples, it has been assumed that the ship has a single righthanded propeller and that bulk carriers and
tankers have their accommodation aft. The guide is unable to cover all the different ship types. Masters must become acquainted with
their own ship configurations.
