Code of Federal Regulations Title 33. Navigation and Navigable Waters § 33.164.37 Equipment:  Vessels of 10,000 gross tons or more

Current as of January 02, 2025 | Updated by Findlaw Staff

(a) Each vessel of 10,000 gross tons or more must have, in addition to the radar system under § 164.35(a), a second marine radar system that operates independently of the first.

Note:  Independent operation means two completely separate systems, from separate branch power supply circuits or distribution panels to antennas, so that failure of any component of one system will not render the other system inoperative.

(b) On each tanker of 10,000 gross tons or more that is subject to 46 U.S.C. 3708, the dual radar system required by this part must have a short range capability and a long range capability;  and each radar must have true north features consisting of a display that is stabilized in azimuth.

(Authority:  Titles I and II, 86 Stat. 426, 427 (46 U.S.C. 391(a), 70004;  49 CFR 1.46(n)(4))
