OCT/NOV
2022
1.1. Introduction
The writer is going to discuss the importance of safety in the South African
maritime industry and the number of incidents that took place in the sea. Also
objectives of The South African Maritime Safety Authority (SAMSA are
outlined which may include ensuring safety of life and property at sea,
