INTERNATIONAL SAFETY MANAGEMENT (ISM)
The objectives of the ISM Code are to ensure safety at sea, prevention of human injury or loss of life, and avoidance of damage to the environment, in particular, to the marine environment, and to property. The Code requires companies to establish safety objectives as described in section 1.2 of the ISM Code. In addition companies must develop, implement and maintain a Safety Management System (SMS) which includes functional requirements as listed in section 1.4 of the ISM Code.

The Master was under the mistaken impression that he was encountering first year ice when in fact,… [the ice] was much harder land ice. … The Master of the eco-cruise ship M/V Explorer was very experienced in Baltic waters but he was unfamiliar with the type of ice he encountered in Antarctic waters. The Master should have altered course to open water and not have entered the ice field during darkness. However, once he had entered the ice field and approached the “wall of ice”, there is no indication that he reduced the Explorer’s speed as he approached and then made contact with the “wall of ice”.

OVERARCHING GOAL OF THE POLAR CODE
The goal of this Code is to provide for safe ship operation and the protection of the polar environment by addressing risks present in polar waters and not
adequately mitigated by other instruments of the Organization.

All of the above, plus....
- For vessels intended to operate in low air temperatures, vessels must have a cold temperature service or winterization notation that is compatible with its Polar Service Temperature
- Have onboard inflatable life rafts and marine evacuation systems designed to operate at the PST, or that are protected from cold weather or fitted with means to protect them from dropping below – 30 degrees C.
- Reporting procedures (Nordreg) outside of Zone / Dates
- Mandatory use of POLARIS for PC vessels (or AIRSS for non PC vessels)

TRAINING REQUIREMENTS
Tanker and Cruise Ships – Basic and Advanced Training regardless of ice concentration
Other vessels – open water / or less than 2/10ths coverage, no additional training required
Both IMO and Canada retain the option to supplement onboard expertise with an “Ice Navigator”
Canada’s requirements for training are tied to the PC and to the Zone / Date system

CANADIAN ICE NAVIGATOR REQUIREMENTS10 (1) Vessels, other than a cargo vessel of 500 gross tonnage or more or a passenger vessel that are certified as meeting the requirements of Chapter I of SOLAS, that navigate in a shipping safety control zone set out in columns 2 to 17 of Schedule 1 during a period other than those set out in item 14 of that schedule must have an ice navigator on board.
Requirements
(2) The ice navigator on a vessel must
(a) have all of the qualifications under the Canada Shipping Act, 2001 to act as a master or a person in charge of the deck watch; and
(b) either:
(i) have served on a vessel in the capacity of master or person in charge of the deck watch for at least 50 days, of which 30 days must have been served in international Arctic waters while the vessel was in ice conditions that required the vessel to be assisted by an ice-breaker or that required manoeuvres to avoid concentrations of ice that might have endangered the vessel,
or(ii) hold a certificate in advanced training for ships operating in polar waters in accordance with regulation V/4 of the International Convention on Standards of Training, Certification and Watchkeeping for Seafarers, 1978.
