routinely still require a fresh risk assessment and hazard identification. Having done similar jobs many times before does not make them any safer.
Lessons learnt

FINDINGS
The tide table showed tide was slack from ebb during transit. Vessel draft was 1.50 mtrs F and 2.30 mtrs aft. As per Master, the aft tug was ordered HOLD instead it abruptly pulled the vessel starboard. The towing line was maintained 30 mtrs and not shortened. The tug Master handled the wheel, engine control and radio communication solo.
LESSON LEARNT
A pre-meeting between barge and tug Masters should have taken place. Shorter towing line could have given better control of the barge. Safe speed for the barge and tug pull power had not been set prior undertaking this transit.
