07 - Fire Safety › N/A - No Subsystem › Means of escape
Issued 14 May 2025
Resolved
SOLAS 1974 II-2 Regulation 21
Currently, All the crew berthing areas (below the bulkhead deck) have two means of escape. However, the second means of escape are in crewmember berthing rooms above the top bunks. Furthermore, the two means of escape for each berthing area lead to a common space (i.e. Lounge/lounges) above the crew berthing areas. Using the forward crew berth as an example: If a fire were to break out in the forward bar (located in the forward lounge) the crew below would have no escape route. The same scenario for the large aft crew berths under the Galley and main passenger lounge.
* Submit plans to Coast Guard Marine Safety Center to correct the deficient means of escape from all three crew berths prior to sailing foreign.
Until the means of escape meet SOLAS 1974 II-2 Regulations 21, the vessel is restricted to domestic voyages only.
Condition: Placed in Improper Service
Action required: 702 - Prior to embarking on international voyage
Due 31 August 2025
Resolved 8 October 2025
Resolution: 08Oct2025, In accordance with 46 C.F.R. § 1.03-15(j), CVC issued an appeal response letter rescinding this requirement. The response letter (ser # 3279) was uploaded into vessel documents.
07 - Fire Safety › N/A - No Subsystem › Means of escape
Issued 14 May 2025
Resolved
Taking into consideration the means of escape requirements of SOLAS 1974 II-2 Reg 21), SASH requirements found in 46 USC 3106 (Key Control). On October 19, 2024, and ISM Audit was completed with a Nonconformity issued for SASH policies and Key Control implementation. The Corrective actions were implemented on the vessel; however, the implementation of the key control measures directly conflicts with the two means of escape requirements in SOLAS.
Prior to embarking passengers on a foreign voyage, you are required to remove the locks on all three berthing area doors that lead to the second means of escape from the three crew berths below the bulkhead deck.
To conform with the SASH requirements, you are required to reassign the crew members from the rooms with the escape hatches to another appropriate berth.
Condition: Placed in Improper Service
Action required: 702 - Prior to embarking on international voyage

means of egress.
15 - Safety Management Systems (ISM) › N/A - No Subsystem › Other (ISM)
Issued 14 May 2025
Resolved
ISM CODE 1.2.2 Safety management objectives of the Company should, inter alia: Provide for safe practices in ship operation and a safe working environment, assess all identified risks to its ships, personnel and the environment and establish appropriate safeguards; and continuously improve safety management skills of personnel ashore and aboard ships, including preparing for emergencies related both to safety and environmental protection.
Currently the means of escape routes on the vessel do not meet SOLAS 1974 II-2 Regulation 21 and present a hazard to the crew. If a fire or other emergency were to compromise the lounge areas above the crew quarters, crew members would find themselves without a safe and independent alternative route for egress. This configuration does not provide segregated escape paths for the crew, thereby placing them at increased risk in emergency situations.
* Conduct a Risk Assessment covering the emergency response procedures for a fire outbreak in the passenger lounges above the crew quarters. Consider the impact on crew escape routes, and the resultant effects on vessel operations, including firefighting and abandonment of the vessel and its passengers - with special consideration for conducting these operations with a reduced crew.
