Commission Delegated Directive (EU) 2020/12Dangos y teitl llawn

1.3. The boatmaster shall be able to sail and manoeuvre ensuring the safe operation of the craft in all conditions on inland waterways, including in situations that involve high traffic density or where other craft carry dangerous goods and require basic knowledge of the European Agreement concerning the International Carriage of Dangerous Goods by Inland Waterways (ADN).

The boatmaster shall be able to:

COLUMN 1 COMPETENCE	COLUMN 2 KNOWLEDGE AND SKILLS
1. navigate and manoeuvre taking into account geographical, hydrological, meteorological and morphological characteristics of the main inland waterways;	1. Knowledge of the hydrological and morphological characteristics of the main waterways, e.g. catchment area and watershed, types of rivers by water source, the slope and course of a river, flow velocity and current pattern, human intervention in the course of a river. 2. Knowledge of the meteorological effects on the main inland waterways, e.g. weather forecast and warning services, scale of Beaufort, district division for wind and storm warnings with factors such as air pressure, wind, high and low pressure areas, clouds, fog, types and passage of fronts, ice warning and high water warning. 3. Ability to apply geographical, hydrological, meteorological and morphological information.
2. give order to moor and unmoor craft and to haul towage operations;	1. Knowledge of technical requirements and documents on mooring and hauling operations. 2. Ability to initiate procedures of mooring and unmooring manoeuvre and to ensure that equipment on different types of craft complies with requirements of craft certificate. 3. Ability to communicate with deck personnel, e.g., to use communication systems and hand signals.
3. provide safe access to craft;	1. Knowledge of technical requirements on facilities to access craft. 2. Ability to organise safe access to craft whether sailing, moored or at anchor and to use e.g. stairway, gangplank, ship’s boat, fall protection and illumination.
4. use modern electronic navigation aids;	1. Knowledge of functions and operation of navigation aids. 2. Knowledge of operating principles, limitations and sources of error of navigation aids. 3. Ability to use nautical sensors and indicators providing navigation information, e.g. (D) GPS, position, heading, course, speed, distance, depth, Inland ECDIS, radar. 4. Ability to use River Information Services (RIS) and technologies, e.g. Inland AIS, Inland ECDIS, Electronic Reporting and notices to skipper, FIS (Fairway Information Services), TIS (Traffic Information Services), TMS (Traffic Management Services), CAS (Calamity Abatement Services), ITL (Information for Transport Logistics), ILE (Information for Law Enforcement), ST (Statistics), WCHD (Waterway Charges and Harbour Dues) distance, depth, also in connection with radar. 5. Ability to detect misrepresentation of information and apply methods of correction.
5. respect technical requirements for inland navigation;	1. Knowledge of structure and content of the applicable technical requirements and of the content of the craft certificate. 2. Ability to initiate checks and certification procedures.
6. consider effects of current, waves, wind and water-levels in relation with interactions of crossing, meeting and overtaking craft as well as ship-shore (canal effect);	1. Knowledge of the influence of waves, wind and current on sailing, manoeuvring or stationary craft, including the effect of wind e.g. cross wind when manoeuvring, also at nautical superstructures or when entering or leaving ports, locks and secondary waterways. 2. Knowledge of the influence of current on sailing, manoeuvring, and stationary craft on waterways used by inland navigation such as the effect of current, e.g. when manoeuvring upstream and downstream or with empty or loaded craft and when e.g. entering and leaving ports, locks or secondary waterways. 3. Knowledge of the influence of water movement during sailing, manoeuvring and when stationary such as the influence of water movement regarding draught subject to water depth and the reaction to shallow water effects e.g. by decreasing sailing speed. 4. Ability to respect interaction effects when sailing, manoeuvring and when stationary in a narrow fairway and to recognise the interaction effects relating to empty or loaded craft. 5. Knowledge of the effect of cargo handling and stowing conditions during sailing, manoeuvring and when stationary relating to stability. 6. Ability to take into account trim, angle of heel, downflooding, lever principle, points of gravity.
7. use of propulsion and manoeuvring systems as well as appropriate communication and alarm systems;	1. Knowledge of propulsion, steering and manoeuvring systems and their influence on manoeuvrability. 2. Ability to use propulsion, steering and manoeuvring systems. 3. Knowledge of anchoring devices. 4. Ability to use anchor in various circumstances. 5. Knowledge of communication and alarm systems. 6. Ability to give instructions if necessary in the case of an alarm.
8. sail and manoeuvre also in situations that involve high traffic density or where other craft carry dangerous goods, requiring basic knowledge of the ADN.	1. Basic knowledge of structure of ADN, ADN documents and instructions and visual signals required by ADN. 2. Ability to find instructions in ADN and to identify visual signs for craft subject to ADN.
