Marine Order 504 Now Live in the Small Vessels Manual eBook

The Australian Maritime Safety Authority (AMSA) has released updates to Marine Order 504 (Certificates of Operation – National Law) 2024, introducing significant changes that will take effect on 1 June 2025. We've previously covered these changes, which you can read in the Navigating Change blog post here.

These revisions aim to enhance safety management systems (SMS) for domestic commercial vessels, providing operators ample time to adapt to the new requirements.

In response to these updates, the Small Vessels Manual has incorporated the latest changes into its eBook, ensuring that our users have access to current and comprehensive information – and we're the first in the industry to do so. This integration assists vessel owners, operators and crew members in understanding and implementing the new SMS requirements effectively.

The Small Vessels Manual eBook serves as a practical study guide for Masters, Mates, Coxswains, and Marine Engine Drivers (MED) certificates, offering up-to-date content packaged in an interactive, practical format.

Staying informed and prepared is crucial for the safety and efficiency of maritime operations. The updated Marine Order 504 and the comprehensive resources provided by the Small Vessels Manual are essential tools for navigating these regulatory changes.
