This Circular publishes the Coast Guard's policy for the manning of vessels equipped with fast rescue boats and for the training of mariners assigned to such craft. It defines fast rescue boats and identifies the ships required to carry them under the International Convention for the Safety of Life at Sea (SOLAS), 1974, and its Protocol of 1978, as amended (SOLAS 74/78). It also summarizes the knowledge and skills that a mariner must demonstrate to obtain the endorsement for fast rescue boats on the certificates issued under the Intenational Convention on Standards of Training, Certification, and Watchkeeping for Seafarers (STCW), 1978, as amended.
