Built in Singapore the Esvagt Capri makes its way out from Aberdeen harbour escorted by the local pilot boat till 1mile out.
The rescue zone must primarily be located amidships and at a secure distance from the standby vessel’s propellers. The rescue zone must take up at least one-third of the standby vessel’s length; however, it need not be longer than 10 m. The rescue zone must be clearly marked on the standby vessel’s sides by vertical lines indicating the longitudinal dimensions of the zone. Between the lines, “RESCUE ZONE” must be clearly written in block letters. The lines must have a width of about 1 m and extend from the rescue zone deck to close to the waterline. The marking must be of a highly visible colour. If the standby vessel has a red or an orange outboard colour, the rescue zone may be marked by being painted white from the bulwark to the waterline over the entire width of the zone.
