Lifeboats and Safety

Safety precautions on board the MV Gamle Oksøy:

There are two lifeboats on board the MV Gamle Oksøy. They are no longer approved for use, but are kept on board as they are an integral part of the listed vessel. Today, the vessel’s three life rafts constitute the most important safety equipment on board, in addition to life jackets.

When the ship is sailing in open waters, it must be equipped with survival suits for everyone
on board.

Strict demands are made on the safety equipment on board ships. Should anything cease to work,
or be damaged, the ship may be banned from sailing.
