Are you allowed to sail in a position lower than your rank, when this position is not mentioned on your Certificate of Competency?<\/p>\n<p>It sometimes happens that a seafarer has to take over a function for another crew member, sometimes in a lower rank. It could be, for example, that a Captain or Chief Officer has to take over a third officer or rating. According to strict interpretation of the STCW regulations, mentioned, the substitute will not be allowed to sail in this function when it is not mentioned on their CoC. RBG consulted NSI about this, after which NSI issued a &#8216;declaration about working in a lower rank&#8217;. You can read the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.roodbovengroen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/V2-Statement-regarding-lower-function-.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">NSI declaration here.<\/a> (Download <a href=\"https:\/\/www.roodbovengroen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/V2_Statement_regarding_lower_function_.pdf\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">V2 Statement regarding lower function<\/a>).<\/p>\n<p>In essence, NSI has no objection to a seafarer who is in possession of a CoC Officer in charge of a navigational watch (II\/1), Chief Mate (II\/2) or Master (II\/2) to also sail as Rating Deck (II\/4) or Rating. A seafarer may also sail with a CoC Chief Engineer (III\/3\/III\/2), Second Engineer or Officer in charge of an Engineering watch (III\/1) in the function of Rating Engine Room (III\/4).<\/p>\n<p>NSI does emphasize that persons who serve as a Rating or Rating Engine Room must be listed on the crew list as a Rating or Rating Engine Room and in practice also perform the work associated with this position. It should be noted that seagoing service as a rating deck or rating engine room cannot be used to extend or upgrade an officer\u2019s CoC.<\/p>\n<p>Please feel free to\u00a0<a href=\"mailto:info@roodbovengroen.com\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">contact<\/a>\u00a0us if we can advise you on this.[\/vc_column_text][vc_separator color=&#8221;custom&#8221; accent_color=&#8221;#004029&#8243;][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n<h2 id=\"tw-target-text\" class=\"tw-data-text tw-text-large XcVN5d tw-ta\" dir=\"ltr\" style=\"text-align: center;\" data-placeholder=\"Vertaling\"><span lang=\"en\">Would you like to receive future updates and important information directly in your mailbox?\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n<p>[\/vc_column_text]<style type=\"text\/css\" data-type=\"the7_shortcodes-inline-css\">#default-btn-85a533482a5dc09102e2b80c6bf62b28.ico-right-side > i {\n  margin-right: 0px;\n  margin-left: 8px;\n}\n#default-btn-85a533482a5dc09102e2b80c6bf62b28 > i {\n  margin-right: 8px;\n}<\/style><div class=\"btn-align-center\"><a href=\"http:\/\/eepurl.com\/g83cqn\" class=\"default-btn-shortcode dt-btn dt-btn-m link-hover-off  vc_custom_1678433094216\" target=\"_blank\" id=\"default-btn-85a533482a5dc09102e2b80c6bf62b28\" rel=\"noopener\"><i class=\"icomoon-the7-font-telegram\"><\/i><span>You can now sign up for our STCW Training News Update!<\/span><\/a><\/div>[\/vc_column][\/vc_row]<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>[vc_row bg_type=&#8221;image&#8221; parallax_style=&#8221;vcpb-vz-jquery&#8221; bg_image_new=&#8221;id^89|url^https:\/\/www.roodbovengroen.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/05\/2000px_745625317.jpg|caption^null|alt^null|title^2000px_745625317|description^null&#8221; bg_image_repeat=&#8221;no-repeat&#8221; parallax_sense=&#8221;50&#8243; bg_override=&#8221;full&#8221; disable_on_mobile_img_parallax=&#8221;disable_on_mobile_img_parallax_value&#8221; parallax_content=&#8221;parallax_content_value&#8221; parallax_content_sense=&#8221;50&#8243; css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1591095257578{margin-top: -100px !important;}&#8221;][vc_column][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;150px&#8221;][vc_row_inner css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1591094995702{background-color: rgba(255,255,255,0.95) !important;*background-color: rgb(255,255,255) !important;}&#8221;][vc_column_inner][vc_column_text] STCW Training News In STCW Training News update nr. 7: Statement NSI regarding working in a lower rank on board December 2022[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][vc_empty_space height=&#8221;100px&#8221;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row css=&#8221;.vc_custom_1591267562241{margin-top: 50px !important;}&#8221;][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243;][vc_column_text] Other news from update 7: First students with Dutch&hellip;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":7,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_monsterinsights_skip_tracking":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_active":false,"_monsterinsights_sitenote_note":"","_monsterinsights_sitenote_category":0,"_uf_show_specific_survey":0,"_uf_disable_surveys":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[23],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-5502","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized","category-23","description-off"],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.roodbovengroen.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5502","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.roodbovengroen.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.roodbovengroen.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.roodbovengroen.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/7"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.roodbovengroen.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=5502"}],"version-history":[{"count":17,"href":"https:\/\/www.roodbovengroen.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5502\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":5886,"href":"https:\/\/www.roodbovengroen.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5502\/revisions\/5886"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.roodbovengroen.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=5502"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.roodbovengroen.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=5502"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.roodbovengroen.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=5502"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
