The tasks assigned to the Kingston class Maritime Coastal Defence Vessels (MCDV) have strained the existing crew and ship resources A study by Benott and Massel (2001) demonstrated that the level of demand on the ships used on average 95% of the available time-in-schedule for the fleet, leaving little scheduling flexibility. The present study examined the policy of using multiple crews on the MCDV to determine if any scheduling improvements were possible. The results showed that multi-crewing is unlikely to yield gains in availability-for-at-sea tasking. The possible consequences of implementation of the policy on the infrastructure, training requirements and crew cohesion were also discussed. The methodology and analysis approach can be applied to other classes of ship.
