This paper reviews the types and causes of accidents that Nile cruisers may experience during their operational lifetime. It also presents the role of the human error and some design factors in impairing safety assurance of these vessels. Special attention is paid to the role of environmental conditions and the special characteristics of the navigational channel of the river Nile. Stability criteria for Nile cruisers for the intact and damaged conditions are studied and quantified deterministically and probabilistically. The importance of establishing national stability regulations for Nile cruisers is stressed.
