Monthly incident reports

Every month we share an overview of a domestic commercial vessel incident investigation and the safety lesson you can learn to prevent a similar incident occurring on board your vessel.  

This month's report examines an incident where a 15-metre landing barge capsized while transiting from Great Mackerel Beach to Pittwater north of Sydney. At the time of the incident, the landing barge was carrying a truck and four crew.

Each month we also report on the number and types of domestic commercial marine incidents reported to us. This information is broken down by state, vessel type and a description of the incident. Read the monthly domestic commercial vessel incident report.
