2.12.4.8 UNRESTRICTED BRIDGE VISIBILITY

When loading a large number of containers on deck, attention should be given to ensuring unrestricted bridge visibility. Mandatory regulations require that the sea surface 500 metres forward of the bow must be visible from the bridge. If the Master is of the opinion that visibility may be impaired, he/she should request a restow of the containers.
