SEA BREEZE II

Objective evidence discovered during an expanded ISM exam revealed the following nonconformities: The vessel failed to fully implement the requirements of the ISM Code through their SMS procedures as evident by the following deficiencies indicating that the ship and/or company are not meeting the SMS requirements.
