Communication
It is important that adequate information is exchanged between the helicopter and the vessel and they are thoroughly understood. This would be possible only when a direct radio link is established between the ship and helicopter. This is usually accomplished with the helicopter equipped with the marine VHF FM radio able to transmit and receive on at least Channel 16 and preferably on two other two working channels. Unless other arrangements have been agreed upon in advance, the ship should monitor VHF Channel 16 or pre--designated SAR frequency for the arrival of the helicopter.
Evacuation
Evacuation by Helicopter is undertaken depending upon the nature of casualty,the prevailing condition and the availability of the space onboard for winch operations and landing. The mission also depends upon the capabilities and limitations of the helicopter.The safety and efficiency of the helicopter operations is greatly enhanced if the crew of the vessel. the ground party at the rescue scene and the aircrew are thoroughly briefed in advance on what is required/expected of the operations.
11.6.2 The helicopter operations include landing and winching on land, water and oil rigs/offshore installations or on the deck of the ships at sea. Landings on vessels and oilrigs at sea will normally be done on well-equipped and trained craft. Though winching by helicopter can be hazardous to the persons being hoisted/lowered, the rescue facility
and others on the scene of winching, the operations if coordinated and conducted well will certainly save lives of the casualties or personnel in distress. However, the final decision about whether it is safe to conduct the winching is subject to agreement of the pilots of the helicopter, personnel at the scene and the person in command of the rescue
facility

XQ. 339) Give an example of sue and labour ?
XSue and labour is an extraordinary expenditure made in time of peril to avert
or minimise any loss or damage to the subject matter insured. Because such an expenditure is incurred for the safety or preservation of the subject matter insured, it may be claimed under the separate head of a particular charge.
Sue and labour charges are not to be confused with general average expenditure. They are incurred for the benefit of only a single interest (e.g. the vessel, or the cargo), whereas general average expenditure is incurred for the common benefit (e.g. of the ship, cargo and freight, if any at risk).
Examples of sue and labour charges might include costs incurred by a shipowner in recovering a lost anchor and cable, and costs incurred by a cargo owner of having a refrigerated cargo stored ashore while a ships refrigerating machinery is under repair.
provides that the assured has a duty to take all reasonable steps to avert or minimise any loss for which a claim
would be payable under the policy. In return, most costs incurred in taking such steps are recoverable from the
underwriters.
Examples of sue and labour charges might include costs incurred by a shipowner in recovering a lost anchor and
cable, and costs incurred by a cargo owner of having a refrigerated cargo stored ashore while a ship’s refrigerating
machinery is under repair.
