Completing your EDH before your OOW

8 June 2015

The EDH (Efficient Deckhand) requirement came into play as of the end of June 2015 when the new M-notice was published.


This means that as from 01 January 2017, the EDH certificate must have been issued within 18 months prior to the issue of the Certificate of Competency for the OOW. So if you are planning to do your OOW in the future, please bear this information in mind.
