Crew lists

The master or skipper of a UK-registered ship must provide the ship’s owner with a copy of an up-to-date crew list at the start of each journey. They must also tell the owner if there are any changes of crew during the journey.

If a ship is lost at sea, the crew list will be used to find out who is missing. The ship’s owner should hand the crew list in to a local Maritime and Coastguard Agency (MCA) Marine Office or post it to:
