TUGSAFE CENTRAL

TugSafe Central is your online hub for Subchapter M compliance requirements and guidance. TugSafe Central should not be used as a standalone source to determine compliance with Subchapter M.  Some items are not applicable to every towing vessel, so those utilizing this information should understand how to determine regulatory applicability, or use the Inspected Towing Vessel Decision Aid (aka TugSafe) to generate a customized regulatory checklist for a specific vessel.

The TVNCOE strives for continuous improvement and welcomes your feedback.

NOTICE: TugSafe Central information does not supersede any current laws, regulations, or directives of the U.S. Coast Guard.
