NAVAREA II Warnings

About NAVAREA II Warnings

The NAVAREA II warnings provided on this website are meant to serve as a supplementary resource for mariners. However, they are not a substitute for the International SafetyNet service, which remains the primary method for delivering Maritime Safety Information (MSI) directly to vessels at sea. The SafetyNet service ensures that all ships equipped with the Global Maritime Distress and Safety System (GMDSS) receive real-time and reliable safety updates, regardless of their internet access.

Masters and Captains are legally obligated under the Safety of Life at Sea (SOLAS) convention to monitor MSI broadcasts, including those from systems like SafetyNET, SafetyCAST, and NAVTEX. Website updates, while helpful, may face delays or connectivity issues and cannot guarantee the same level of immediacy or accuracy as official broadcast systems. Therefore, reliance on the website alone does not absolve mariners of their responsibility to ensure safe navigation by actively monitoring authorized MSI channels.
