Investigating marine accidents, by Roger Brydges

Investigating marine accidents, by Roger Brydges

The Marine Accident Investigation Branch is the government organisation that investigates accidents involving vessels of all types and sizes.  Its aim is to ensure that the causes are determined, so that safety lessons can be learned through the publication of its reports. 

A keen sailor himself, Roger Brydges has been with the MAIB for 19 years and has been involved in the investigation of the majority of accidents involving sailing boats during that time.  Roger’s presentation will describe the MAIB’s methods and techniques as they apply to all maritime sectors, before concentrating on some sailing case studies that have resulted in published reports.
