Seaworthiness analysis of pole and liner in Luwu Regency

Abstract

Pole and liner have a large shipping area with unstable marine environmental conditions, therefore, the operation of pole and liner should pay attention to vessel's seaworthiness criteria. The vessel's seaworthiness criteria can be seen from the index of fishing vessel standards which in principle is based on aspects safety, which includes safety equipment, navigation equipment, communication equipment, machinery and other additional equipment. This study aims to analyze the marine feasibility of pole and liner in Luwu Regency, by using a decision-making method based on the Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) by comparing the elements of decisions based on pairs, namely comparing pairs and reducing the concept of decision making. The data used in analyzing the seakeeping of the vessel for the seaworthiness aspect is obtained from the results of interviews with respondents using a questionnaire which includes parameters of safety equipment, navigation equipment, and additional equipment. The results of the pole and liner seaworthiness assessment in Luwu Regency based on three parameters show that for the aspect of safety equipment, the ones with the highest weight are life jackets, life buoy, lifeboats, and fire extinguishers, respectively. Marine maps and Global Position Systems (GPS) achieve the highest weight for the navigation equipment aspect and for the auxiliary equipment aspect with the highest weight, i.e. engine parts.
