10.7 GMDSS inspections
If your vessel is subject to GMDSS regulations then you can expect to get regular
visits from ship surveyors enforcing national legislation. They will check the expiry
dates and activate the EPIRB to prove that it really works and they will read the
identity message stored inside the EPIRB to check that you have registered it
properly. Leisure vessels are not subject to these inspections. However, in some
countries passenger and fishing vessels are covered by the legislation.
