🔍 Key Concepts

• Cargo Gear Register purpose and contents • Who is responsible for keeping proof of testing and certification on board • Difference between shipboard records and shore-side agency records

💭 Think About

• Ask yourself: If a Port State Control officer wanted to see proof that your cargo runners and loose gear were tested, where would they logically ask to see it while on board? • Think about which document or record set is specifically designed to hold details of cargo handling equipment, safe working loads, and test dates. • Consider: Are certificates for individual pieces of gear normally filed in a government office, a ship’s log, or in a gear-specific record on the vessel?

✅ Before You Answer

• Verify what is normally kept with the ship and must be produced during inspections. • Check which document is dedicated to lifting appliances and loose gear rather than general voyage or crew events. • Eliminate options that would make it impractical for an inspector on board to quickly verify test and certification status.
