STI/MARS Accident Reporting Forms

The concept of the confidential accident report scheme is to assist in accident prevention. By sharing your experiences with other maritime professionals anonymously reproduced in the Nautical Institute magazine SEAWAYS, you can help them to avoid similar situations.

We want to hear about any unsafe practices, dangerous occurrences, personal accidents, near miss situations or equipment failures which you have experienced, and any methods you have adopted to prevent repetitions. Within the context of ship operations the scheme is unlimited, is international in outlook, and open to commercial, naval, fishing and pleasure users.

We can assure you that all reports sent in will be treated in the strictest confidence. Providing they meet the above criteria, we will publish, anonymously, as many as possible in SEAWAYS.

The original report will be destroyed prior to publication or sent back to the originator.

To submit a report, please either:

1. complete the STI/MARS ON-LINE form, which will email your report to us, or
   
2. print the STI/MARS hardcopy form and, if required, the continuation form, record your report on these forms and send to:
