Reading through the above bulletin once again, I think that I should point out the following in order to avoid any confusions:
The specific bulletin may have some applications in the shipping industry and the safety equipment in general, but it is primarily company specific and most important equipment specific. Many different types and brands of safety equipment are used by the industry worldwide with different characteristics.
Apart from informatinon sharing, this thread was created in order to have the members' comments and exchange of ideas. Especially those who work on board ships and their safety depends on many negative factors which can be controlled or at least limited.
I found the above report comprehensive and really useful, as it states specific and feasible improvement suggestions.
The accident unfortunately occurred, but actions for prevention of future similar accidents must be implemented.
I keep 6 words (without being an accident analyst): Supervision, Communication, Specialization (work duties), P.P.E (Personal Protective Equipment), Commercial Pressure and Training. (Ok I know the words are more than 6...).
