Add Fleet Unit

Enter a craft onto the national registry from an operator's application

1

Craft Type

Determines the licence class and the inspection cycle applied below

2

Operator & Home Base

Which licensed operator holds this craft, and where it is stationed

Filled in from where you came from, where that is known.

Islands this operator is assigned to work from.

Locations assigned to this operator on the chosen island.

3

Craft Identification

Who built this hull and how it is identified on the register — the registration is transcribed from the operator's application

Moulded into the hull at manufacture and never changes.

As stamped on the builder’s plate.

Boat Registration Act (Ch. 277) — allocated by the Port Department on grant.

Registration runs to 31 December of the year it is granted in.

4

Specifications

Engine, dimensions and capacity — the length entered here sets the statutory registration fee band

Hull length sets the registration fee band, so it is required — a craft with no length is shown as unpriced, never as free.

Enter the length to see which fee band applies.

As stated on the builder's capacity plate.

Brake horsepower, as stated by the manufacturer.

Displacement in cc, or the outboard make for a boat.

An identifying particular on the register; not on the operator’s form.

The pickup point at the home base this craft works from.

$

Statutory Registration Fee

Second Schedule of the Regulations — the fee follows the hull length band (BR-63)

5

Insurance

Third-party insurance certificate (S.I. 43) — cover must be in force before dispatch

6

Tracker

Every registered craft must carry a reporting tracker before it can be dispatched

Connection test
Enter a device ID, then check whether it reports a position.

A craft with no tracker still registers — it just will not appear on Live Tracking.

7

Initial Inspection Optional

BR-65 — inspected annually. Record it here if it has already been carried out, or leave blank and record it later

Nothing here is required to enter this craft on the register. Left blank, the craft registers with no inspection on file and will show as due until one is recorded. Fill in one field and the date and clearance become required, so a half-written inspection cannot be saved.

The officer who carried out the inspection.

Auto-set to one year after the inspection date — override if a shorter cycle was imposed.

8

Status & Declaration

How the craft enters the registry, and the officer's confirmation

Registration
Registered on entry
Granted by this entry — the Department’s decision.
Operational status
Set by the operator once the craft is in service.
Compliance
Calculated from the registration, insurance and inspection dates.

What you are entering on the register

Fee raised on registration

Entering this craft grants it, so the first registration fee is raised against the operator immediately.

    What happens next

    The craft is written to the fleet registry immediately and appears to the operator in their own fleet list. Registration and insurance particulars become read-only to this console afterwards — from that point the operator maintains them and the Port Department maintains only Safety & Inspection. The entry is written to the activity log.
