Main Engine Failure Response Guide

In the event of a main engine failure, the vessel should steer away from danger using its momentum and inform the VTS and company emergency response team. The crew should prepare the anchor party, consider rudder cycling or dredging anchors to manage speed, and monitor the vessel's position relative to navigational hazards. If repairs are not possible, tug assistance should be requested.
