TIMES
Times quoted are in Universal Time (UT) unless otherwise stated, and are reckoned from 0000 (midnight) to
2400. The term UT is gradually replacing Greenwich Mean Time (GMT); the abbreviation UT (GMT) will be used
to indicate the general equivalence of the two terms. GMT will be retained as the term for the time within Standard
Time Zone 0 (Zero).
GEOGRAPHICAL POSITIONS
Geographical positions of radio aids to navigation are normally given by the controlling authority. In some cases
they are in accordance with the ADMIRALTY Chart. If bearings are taken to radio aids, it should be remembered
that, in some cases, the positions quoted are only approximate.
BEARINGS
Bearings are given from seaward and refer to the true compass.
NAMES
Names in ADMIRALTY List of Radio Signals are spelt in accordance with the principles and systems approved
by the Permanent Committee on Geographical Names for British Official Use.
A second name may be given in parentheses in the following circumstances:
1. if the retention of a superseded rendering will facilitate cross-reference to related publications;
2. if, in the case of a name that has changed radically, the retention of the former one will aid recognition;
3. if it is decided to retain an English conventional name in addition to the present official rendering.
DIAGRAMS
Diagrams will be updated by weekly Notices to Mariners when significant changes are required. Otherwise
diagrams will be corrected for the next new edition.
TELEPHONE NUMBERS
National Direct Dialling (NDD) prefixes are shown in brackets (0). This digit should only be dialled when calling
from within that country.
REPORTING CHANGES
In the interests of safe navigation, mariners and others are invited to notify the UK Hydrographic Office (UKHO) of
any information which would be useful towards the updating of ADMIRALTY Charts and Publications. Early advice,
with supporting particulars of newly discovered dangers, the establishment of, or changes to any aids to navigation
is specially requested. Copies of forms H102, H102a and H102b, designed for such notification, are contained in
the Weekly Editions of ADMIRALTY Notices to Mariners. Additional copies can be obtained free of charge from the

DESCRIPTION:
(1) The Japanese Ship Reporting System (JASREP) has been established to assist in
the coordination of SAR operations in the sea area bounded by the mainland of Asia,
the parallel of latitude 17°00'·00N, and the meridian of longitude 165°00'·00E.
(2) It is a voluntary system, in which all suitably equipped vessels are invited to
participate.
(3) Vessels send regular reports where a computer keeps a continuous record of the
predicted position of each vessel. Should an expected report not be received, SAR
action may be initiated.
REQUIREMENT FOR MESSAGES:
There are four types of message, each containing a selection of the items listed in the
FORM OF MESSAGES section; each comprises essential lines and such optional
lines as thought necessary:
(1) A Sailing Plan (SP) should be sent when the vessel enters the area or leaves a
port within the area. The essential lines are A, B, G, I, L, V, E, F,Y and X. Example:

DESCRIPTION:
(1) The Korean Ship Reporting System (KOSREP) is for all vessels transiting the
Republic of Korea Search and Rescue (SAR) area and the Korean Peninsula. The
system is operated on the basis of the legal regime pursuant to both Chapter (Ship
Reporting Systems) of SAR Convention and further to Republic of Korea domestic law,
namely Lifesaving and Rescue Law (Article 18: Ship Reporting System) to provide up
to date information on the movements of vessels in order to ensure SAR operations
against any kind of marine casualty.
(2) Participation in KOSREP is voluntary with no charges applying to any KOSREP
message direetSd through a Republic of Korea Coast Radio Station as designated by
the Korea National Maritime Police Agency. Provision will be made for co-operation
between KOSREP, the Japanese Ship Reporting System (JASREP), and the
Automated Mutual-assistance VEssel Rescue System (AMVER), to ensure a smooth •
transition from the Korean SAR area to another SAR area.
(3) Participation is encouraged from any of the following vessels regardless of
nationality:
(a) International passenger vessels
(b) International voyage vessels of 300 gt or above with a continuous navigating
time of 12h or more
(c) Any kind of vessel not under command, restricted in ability to manoeuvre and!
or constrained in draught
(d) Towing vessels of 200m LOA and over
(e) Vessels j)arrying dangerous car@'.Q (e.g. crude-_oUtankers, product tankers,

HOW TO PARTICIPATE:
Participation in this system begins when a vessel sends the Sailing Plan and ends
when the vessel sends the Final Report to the Korea National Maritime Police Agency.
REQUIREMENT FOR MESSAGES:

There are four types of KOSREP report each containing a selection of the items listed
in FORM OF MESSAGES. Each comprises essential lines and such optional lines as
thought necessary:
(1) The Sailing Plan (SP) is the basic information to estimate the vessel's position
and should be sent at the time the vessel begins participation in the system. Reports
should be made when the vessel departs from a port within the service area, or when
the vessel enters the area, such reporting should be made as soon as practicable.
When the Sailing Plan is to be sent before departure from a port, it may be sent as a
written document through the postal service.
(2) The Position Report (PR) is the information to verify if the vessel's position input
according to the Sailing Plan is correct. The first report should therefore be sent at an
optional time within 12 hours of departure from a port or entering the service area.
Subsequent reports should be sent frequently, not less than every 12 hours until the
Final report. In cases where delayed reporting is anticipated then reports should be
sent earlier than the scheduled time. Reports should also be sent more frequently
when the vessel is in heavy weather or other dangerous conditions.
(3) The Deviation Report (DR) is the information to be used for necessary
correction of the pre-reported Sailing Plan when the vessel deviates from its intended
course due to a change in the Sailing Plan. Such reports should be sent whenever the
vessel deviates 25 n miles or more from the original track, or the port of destination is
changed, or other changes occur in the Sailing Plan.
(4) The Final Report (FR) is the information required to terminate participation in the
system. Accordingly such reports should be sent prior to or on arrival at port or when
the vessel leaves the KOSREP service area. The report may be sent after arrival in
port as a written document through the postal service.
FORM OF MESSAGES:
(1) The first line of a message is always; KOSREP/Message Type (SP, PR, DR or FR)//
and, in subsequent lines, strokes (/) are used to separate sub-items with two strokes
(/~ to mark the end of the line.
(2) The following lines are essential in one or more of message types:
«
N Vessel's name/international call sign//
S/ Date and Time of departure or reporU/ (time must be expressed as a six digit
group giving date of month (first two digits), hours and minutes (last four digits). Only
Universal Coordinated Time (UTC) is to be used. The six digit date time group is to be
followed by "Z")
C/ Latitude/longitude// (Latitude is a four digit group entered in degrees and minutes
. and suffixed with "N" for North and "S" for South. Longitude is a five digit group entered
in degrees and minutes and suffixed with "E" for East and "W" for West)
G/ Port of departure/latitude/longitude//
1/Port of destination/latitude/longitude//
KI Port of arrival/latitude/longitude/time of arrival//
U Navigation method: rhumb line (RL) or great circle (GC)/average speed/latitude/
10ngitude/ETNname of landmark or sea areal/
(Enter route information between the turn points along the intended route in accordance
with the following: "L" lines are needed at, at least three points, twelve points at
maximum. When a vessel enters the service area, enter latitude and longitude of the
point of entrance and the date. Navigation Method: Use "Coastal" for coastal navigation,
"RL" for rhumb line and "GC" for great circle. Average Speed: Enter average speed up
to the intendee.,turnpoint as a three digit group in knots and tenths or knots. e.g. 200
for a speed of 20 knots. Latitude, longitude and ETA: Enter as shown above. Name of
landmark or sea area: Give well known names of landmarks or sea areas. Although
reporting of these names is not essential, vessels are requested to provide them as •
far as available)
VI On board medical resources// (Select as appropriate from the following: "MD"

(Physician), "PA" (Physicians assistant or health supervisor), "Nurse" or "None")
V/ Jasrep/Amver/others// (In cases where a dual participation is required in KOSREP,
JASREP or AMVER, enter system name on this line)

KOREA, SOUTH
(4) The following lines are optional: (Optional data items are useful but not absolutely
necessary. When a report is made, enter current course on line "E" in a three digit
group and estimated average speed for the entire passage on line "F" in a three digit
group in knots and tenths of knots)
EI Current coursell
FI Estimated average speedll
MI Current CRS being worked/next CRSII
Xl Up to 65 characters of amplifying commentsll (Reference data items: Although these
are optional, it is requested to provide the estimated time of the next report, kinds
of cargo, Inmarsat number, MMSI etc. Example: Xl201800ZlLNG/SAT 123456711next
report at 201800Z)
(5) The reports will normally contain the following groups:

(a) Sailing Plan (SP): A, B, G, I, L, V, Y. Optional data items E, F, M, X
(b) Position Report (PR): A, B, C, Y. Optional data items E, F, M, X

Fax: +1 304 2642505
DESCRIPTION:
(1) The AMVER system, operated by the United States Coast Guard (USCG), is
a maritime mutual assistance organisation which provides important aid to the
development and coordination of Search and Rescue (SAR) efforts in many offshore
areas of the world. Merchant vessels of all nations making offshore voyages are
encouraged to send movement reports and periodic position reports to the USCG
Operations Systems Center in Martinsburg, Wesl Virginia, through selected radio
stations or Inmarsat. Information from these reports is entered into a computer which
generates and maintains dead reckoning positions for vessels while they are within
the plotting area. Characteristics of vessels which are valuable for determining SAR
capability are also entered into the computer from available sources of information.
Appropriate information concerning the predicted location and SAR characteristics of
each vessel kn9wn to be within the area of interest, is made available upon request
to recognised'SAR agencies of any nation, or person in distress, for use during an
emergency. Predicted locations are only disclosed for reasons connected with maritime
safety.
(2) In case of emergencies, all distress messages must be sent to the nearest RCC,
NOT the AMVER Center.
AMVER PARTICIPATION INSTRUCTIONS:
(1) AMVER is a worldwide voluntary vessel reporting system operated by the USCG
to promote safety of life and property at sea. AMVER's mission is to quickly provide
Search and Rescue (SAR) authorities, on demand, accurate information on the position
and characteristics of vessels near a reported distress. Any merchant vessel on a
voyage of greater than 24 hours to anywhere on the globe is welcome to participate
in AMVER. In-.general,-internati.oo.alpar-ticipation is volJ;!f)taryf~gardl~~.s.Qfowner's

(2) According to US Maritime Administration (MARAD) regulations, the following

vessels must report and regularly update their voyages and positions to the AMVER
Center:
(a) United States flag merchant vessels of 1000 gt or more, operating in foreign
commerce.
(b) Foreign flag vessels of 1000 gt or more, for which an Interim War Risk Insurance
Binder has been issued under the provisions of Title XII, Merchant Marine Act,
1936.
(3) In accordance with Title 47, Code of Federal Regulations (CFR), Ch. 1, Sec 80,905,
United States vessels which transport more than six passengers for hire, operated
more than 200 n miles from the nearest land must participate in the AMVER system
while engaged on any voyage where the vessel is navigated in the open sea for more
than 24 hours.
(4) Information voluntarily provided by vessels to AMVER is kept strictly confidential,
and is protected by the Coast Guard. It will be released only for safety purposes.
(5) AMVER's greatest use is in providing SURface PICtures, or SURPICs, to Rescue
Coordination Centres (RCCs). A SURPIC either lists latitudellongitude or provides a
graphical display of vessels near the position of a distress. It is used by RCCs to
coordinate the efforts of merchant vessels and other resources to provide the best and
most timely assistance possible to distressed vessels or persons at sea.
WHAT AND WHEN TO REPORT TO AMVER:
(1) The following reports should be sent:
(a) Sailing Plan, containing complete routeing information, should be sent within
a few hours before, upon, or within a few hours after departure.
(b) Position Report should be sent within 24 hours of departure, and
subsequently at least every 48 hours until arrival. The destination should also
be included in Position Reports.
(c) Deviation Report should be sent as soon as any voyage information changes
which could affect AMVER's ability to accurately predict the vessel's position.
Changes in course or speed due to weather, ice, change in destination, or any
other deviations more than 25 n miles from the original Sailing Plan should be
reported as soon as possible.
(d) Arrival Report should be sent upon arrival at the port of destination.
(2) At the discretion of the Master, reports may be sent more frequently than the above
schedule; for example, in heavy weather or under other adverse conditions.
(3) AMVER also needs information that describes communications equipment,
Inmarsat numbers, radio watch schedule, medical personnel on board, and so forth.
This information is collected separately, retained in the automatic data processing
system, periodically validated, and used only for search and rescue purposes.
COMMUNICATION METHODS FOR FILING AMVER REPORTS:
(1) The following methods are recommended for ships to transmit AMVER reports:
'(a) Electronic mail (e-mail):
(i) Ifa ship already has an inexpensive means of sending e-mail to an internet
address, this is a preferred method. E-mail may be sent via satellite or
via HF radio, depending on the ship's equipment and arrangements
with communications providers ashore. Ships must be equipped with a
personal computer, an interface between the computer and the ship's
communications equipment, and the appropriate software.
(ii) The e-mail path on shore to the AMVER Center is essentially free, but the
communications service provider may still charge from ship-to-shore
(iii) Messages may be sent to amvermsg@amver.org or amvermsg@amver.
com
(b) AMVERISEAS "Compressed Message" (Inmarsat C via Telenor):
(i) Ships equipped with an Inmarsat Standard C transceiver with floppy
drive and capability to transmit a binary file (ship's GMDSS Inmarsat-C
transceiver can be used); an IBM-compatible computer (not part of the
ship's GMDSS System) with hard drive, 286 or better PC, VGA graphics;
an interface between them; and the AMVERISEAS software (available free
of charge from the US National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration,
NOAA), may send combined AMVERIWeather observation messages free
of charge via Telenor Land Earth Stations at:
O~..J\tlantic Ocean Region-West (AOR-W) - Southbury
10T Atlantic Ocean Region-East (AOR-E) - Southbury
201 Pacific Ocean Region (POR) - Santa Paula
321 Indian Ocean Region (lOR) - Aussaguel
(ii) AMVER address: NOAA phone number entered in the "addressbook" (for
further information on how to find the NOAA phone number and to correctly
setup the addressbook, see the instruction sheet for your specific brand of
Inmarsat C transceiver).
(iii) AMVERISEAS software can be downloaded from the NOAA SEAS website
or requested from:
Telenor Satellite Services, Inc.
1101 Wootton Parkway
RO,skville,MI;l20852
Se~ CONtACT DETb:Il_S.
344
(c) HF Radiotelex:
(i) AMVER reports may be filed via the HF radiotelex service of USCG
Stations.
(ii) Further information on how to send AMVER messages by this method
is provided at the USCG Navigation Center, website: http://www.navcen.
uscg.gov/cgcomms/call.htm
(d) HF Radio: AMVER reports may also be filed by HF radio at no cost via USCG
contractual agreement with the following companies:
(i) Mobile Marine Radio (WlO - ShipCom Radio Network)
(ii) Mobile (WCl)
(iii) Marina Del Ray (KNN)
(iv) Seattle (KlB)
(e) Telex: AMVER reports may be filed via telex using either satellite (code 43)
or HF radio. Ships must pay the tariffs for satellite communications. Telex is a
preferred method when less costly methods are not available.
(f) Fax:
(i) AMVER reports may be faxed to the USCG Operations Systems Center
(OSC), in Martinsburg, WV.
(ii) In the event other communications media are unavailable or inaccessible,
AMVER reports may be faxed directly to the AMVER Computer Center.
However, this is the least desirable method of communications, since
it involves manual input of information to the computer via electronic
processing.
(iii) Do not fax reports to the AMVER Maritime Relations Office in New York,
since it is not staffed 24 x 7, and relay and processing of reports is delayed
pending normal (Mon-Fri) business hours.
(g) CW (Morse Code): Due to the decline in its usage,the number of coast stations
supporting it, its high cost, potential for error, and the mandatory carriage of
upgraded GMDSS communications capabilities, ships are discouraged from
using this medium.

AMVER MESSAGE LINE DEFINITIONS:
(1) The AMVER line: All AMVER reports must begin with the AMVER line. Report
type is one of the following 2-letter codes:
(a) SP - Sailing Plan
(b) PR - Position Report
(c) DR - Deviation Report
(d) FR - Arrival (Final) Report
Example:
AMVER/report typell
AMVER/PRII
(2) The A line is required in all reports to identify the vessel submitting the report.
Example:
Nvessel name/Cal1signll
NSEA WOlF/KNFGII
(3) The B line identifies the time associated with the position given in the C or Glines
of the report. All times in B, I, K and l lines should be expressed in UTC as a 6-digit
date-time group followed by the letters Z, GMT or UTC, and optionally by a 3-letter
abbreviation for the month.
Examples:
BlTimell
B/230900z/1
B/230900Z DECII
B/230900GMTII
B/230900UTCII
(4) The C line. is used in Position and Deviation Reports to give the vessel's current
position (as of the time given in the B line) in latitude and longitude.
(a) latitudes are always expressed as a 4-digit group followed by N (North) or
S (South). The first 2 digits are interpreted as degrees and the second 2 are
interpreted as minutes.
(b) longitudes are always expressed as a 5-digit group followed by E (East) or
W (West). The first 3 digits are interpreted as degrees and the second 2 are
interpreted as minutes.
(c) It is important to use all digits every time, filling leading digit positions with
zeroes as needed, to ensure accurate interpretation of position information.
(d) Position data may appear in the C, G, I and l lines.
Example:
C/lati1ude/lo_ngitudell
~1465SN/028~OWII -
345
(5) The E line is used to report the vessel's current course (as of the time in the B
line) in degrees true as a 3-digit number.
Example:
E/current course/!
E/230/!
(6) The F line is used to report the vessel's estimated average speed over the ground
for the remainder of the voyage as a 3-digit number representing tenths of knots. This
is a very important line to report as this speed is used for AMVER's dead reckoning
computations unless a different speed is provided for a specific leg of a voyage (see L
line). If no speed is given, AMVER will use an assumed speed. It is important to use all
digits when specifying a speed to ensure accurate interpretation.
Example:
F/estimated average speed/!
F/126/!
(7) The G line is used to report the port of departure by name and position. It is
important to give the position of the port as the name alone does not always uniquely
identify the port.
Example:
Glport of departurellatitudellongitude/!
G/UVERPOOU5325N/00300W/!
(8) The Iline is used to report the vessel's next port and ETA. As with the G line, it
is important to include the port's position as well as its name. The ETA at the next port
is also important, especially when a US port is the destination. In all cases, the ETA is
compared with AMVER's computed ETA as a check on the accuracy and consistency
of all voyage route information.
Example:
IIdestinationllatitudeliongitude/ETAII
IIN~W YORK US/4042N/07401 W/051230Z MARII
(9) The K line is used to report a vessel's actual arrival in the immediate vicinity of
its destination .
. Example:
K/port of arrival/latitude/longitudeitime of arrival/I
KIYOKOHAMA JAl3524N/13940E/152315Z11
(10)The L line is used to report route information. These lines are the most complex
lines in an AMVER report but they are critical to the success of the AMVER system.
Complete route information should be provided in all Sailing Plans and Deviation
Reports. As many L lines as needed may be used to describe the vessel's intended
route. However, detailed route information caused by manoeuvring over short
distances near coasts should not be included. In these cases an approximate route
using fewer turn points and the "COASTAL" navigation method should be provided. All
L lines except the last one in the report require the navigation method to the next turn
point, latitude and longitude of the next turn point, and the ETA at the next turn point.
The final L linfi~ a Sailing Plan requires only the navigation method from the last turn
point to the destination.
(a) Navigation Method: The navigation method is required on all L lines. It is the
method used to get from the last specified position to the one specified in this L
line. There are 3 types of navigation methods recognised by AMVER:
(i) Rhumb Line (RL)
(ii) Great Circle (GC)
(iii) Coastal (COASTAL) (The "COASTAL" method should be used only to
indicate when an approximate route near a coast is used in place of the
many turn points required to describe the vessel's true track. However,
enough turn points should be provided to keep AMVER's plot of the
vessel's position wilhlo 25 n miles of the vessel's true pesitlon The
"CDASTAL" method shoald never be used for major portion-s 01 a-route).
346
(b) Leg Speed: The leg speed is an optional item on L lines. It is the anticipated
average speed over the ground on the leg which ends at the position given in
the same L line. Leg speed should be used whenever the anticipated average
speed on a leg is significantly different from the anticipated average speed for
the voyage as reported in the F line. As a general rule, a difference of 1 knot or
more should be considered significant.
(c) Latitude: This is the latitude of the next turn point. lt is required in all L lines
except the last one in the report.
(d) Longitude: This is the longitude of the next turn point. lt is required in all L
lines except the last one in the report. The final position in a route is assumed
to be the port of destination.
(e) Port or landmark name: This is an optional item in L lines. It should be used
only when it will make the route easier to understand. lt should not be used in
place of a position.
(f) Estimated Time of Arrival (ETA): This is required in any L line where the
vessel intends to lay over at the position given in the same L line.

(12)The V line is an optional line used to report the medical capability aboard the
vessel during the voyage. The codes used are:
(a) NONE (no medically trained person onboard)
(b) NURSE (if a trained nurse is onboard)
(c) PA (if a physician's assistant or paramedic is onboard)

AMVER VOYAGE REPORT TYPES:

(1) There are four types of AMVER Reports: Sailing Plan, Position, Deviation and
Arrival Reports.
(2) Reporting Format: Each AMVER message consists of report lines. There are 15
types of lines. The first line in every report begins with the word "AMVER" followed by
a slash (I), a two letter code identifying the report type, and ends with a double slash
(II). Each remaining line begins with a specific letter followed by a slash (I) to identify
the line type. The remainder of each line contains one or more data fields separated by
a
single slashes (I). Each line ends with double slash (/~. All reports should end with
an end-of-report line (Z line).
(3) Reporting Data: AMVER participants need to be familiar with the four types of
reports. Report identifiers are as follows:
(a) AMVERISPI! denotes Sailing Plan.
(b) AMVER/PRII denotes Position Report.
(c) AMVER/DRII denotes Deviation Report.
(d) AMVER/FRII denotes Arrival Report.
(4) Examples of the above reports are as follows:
(a) Sailing Plan: A Sailing Plan should be sent within a few hours before, upon,
or within a few hours after departure. It must include enough information to
predict the vessel's actual position within 25 n miles at any time during the
voyage, assuming the Sailing Plan is followed exactly. Sailing Plans require
A, B, E, F, G, I, Land Z lines. The M, V, X and Y lines are optional (Y line is
required for US vessels).

(b) Position Report: A Position Report should be sent within 24 hours of

departing port and at least once every 48 hours thereafter. The destination
should be included, at least in the first few reports, in case AMVER has not
receivedthe Sailing Plan information. Position Reports require A, B, C, E, F and
Z lines. The I line is strongly recommended. The M, X and Y lines are optional
(Y line is required for US vessels).

(c) Deviation Report: Deviation Reports should be sent whenever the

vessel deviates significantly from its Sailing Plan. Other situations in which
Deviation Reports should be sent include, but are not limited to; Change in
destination, diverting to evacuate a sick or injured crew member, diverting to
avoid heavy weather, any change of route (as, for example, change based on
recommendations from a vessel routeing service), stopping to make repairs
or await orders, change in anticipated average speed of one knot or more etc.
Deviation Reports require the A, B, C, E, F and Z lines. The I and L lines
are required if destination or route changes. The I line is always strongly
recommended, even when not required. The M, X and Y lines are optional (Y
line is required for US vessels).

(d) Arrival Report: Arrival Reports should be sent upon arrival in the immediate
vicinity of the destination port, such as at the sea buoy or Pilot Station. This
report properly terminates the voyage in AMVER's computer and ensures the
vessel will not appear on an AMVER SURPIC until its next voyage. Arrival
Reports require the A, K and Z lines. The X and Y lines are optional (Y line is
required for US vessels).
