On the
SpareRIBs site we have attempted to help potential charterers, like your self, with coding your RIB.
Take a look in the
Coding Section of the website. We'd be interested in how useful you think it is.
The Coding section of the SpareRIBs site is specifically designed to guide RIB Owners like yourself through "Local Coding" and "MCA Coding" from referring to a
chart that simply defines all the different Operating areas, to being able to select your
local personal operating area (applying to your RIBs operating port) then guiding you to the appropriate
Certificating Authority for you to be licensed/coded with. In some cases around the
Solent, a suggested Surveyor may also be listed for you to then contact.
Nick, where are you planning on chartering your RIB out of? If your just planning on using chartering to suplement your RIB cost then "Local Coding" is still the way for you to go.
Some
tips on chartering and likely costs that you may incur are also worth checking out on the website. Just have a look via the links I've hopefully set up correctly in this rather long note! or just go to
www.spareribs.info
Cheers, Hope this helps
