The incident According to the Nautical Institute, as edited from TSIB (Singapore) report TIB/MAI/CAS.173, tanker A was underway in a traffic separation scheme (TSS) in good weather and with visibility of about 10 to 12 nautical miles (nm). At approximately 0224, the Master handed over the con and navigational watch to the OOW but remained on the bridge. The OOW on duty had joined the vessel the day before and this was his first watch.
