Flybridge
6.2
The “Flybridge ” sometimes referred to as a “flying bridge” forms the upper superstructure of your Fairline and
offers an exterior space in which to enjoy your surroundings and also an additional position from which to
control your craft via the Upper Helm. There are various other features which are covered in the following
pages of this section.
Upper Helm
This helm features the majority of the systems employed on the lower helm. The details and operation of
these systems can be found in the Helm section of this manual. As visibility is typically enhanced from the
Upper Helm, it is recommended that it is used whenever conditions allow, especially during close quarters
manoeuvring or where a risk of collision exists.
Mast
Various navigation, audio visual and communication equipment is mounted on the mast to ensure the best
possible signal strength. To ensure these key systems remain in an operational condition, ensure this
equipment is kept clear from obstruction and is regularly maintained and tested by a qualified engineer.
Flybridge Access Hatch
The flybridge access hatch should be closed whenever crew are in the flybridge area, to avoid danger of
falling. It can also be closed during inclement weather, to protect the cockpit area. Do not walk on the
flybridge hatch.
Danger: No more than six crew should be on the flybridge in category B conditions i.e. wind gale
force eight and significant wave height of four meters.
