Carriage of Armed Personnel for Vessel Protection
BAHAMAS REQUIREMENTS
The Bahamas remains concerned that the uncontrolled use of firearms for deterrence and defence could have serious consequences. This Marine Notice is intended to
support MSC.1/Circ.1405/Rev.2 and provide additional guidance to operators of Bahamas ships.
In noting the continuing threat posed by piracy, and whilst not endorsing the use of PCASP, The Bahamas recognises the right and duty of a ship owner to protect the crew
and the fact that armed response may be utilised on board Bahamian ships. Any decision to engage PCASP should follow due consideration of all of the risks and consultation with insurers.
