  2. SABOT • Risk Management • GAR Work-Sheet

  3. GAR SCORING • The GAR scoring system for determining Risk is made up of six categories: SUPERVISION PLANNING CREW SELECTION CREW FITNESS ENVIRONMENT (MISSION, EVENT or EVOLUTION) COMPLEXITY

  4. GAR SCORING Each category is given a score of 1 to 10 with 1 being no risk and 10 the most. The entire boat crew must have input. The highest individual score is used for the category score. This GAR scoring should be done before the start of every mission and each time there is a change. A change would be anything that changes the mission including time underway, the number of crew onboard, weather, etc.

  5. GAR SCORING The scores for each category are added together to determine the total GAR score. If total GAR score is under 24 the missions score is in the green and should be safe to proceed. You must continue to monitor the progress of the mission for anything that would change the score. Input from the entire crew is necessary.

  6. GAR SCORING If the total GAR score is 24 to 44 the mission score is in the amber and measures should be taken that would lower the score. If you can’t determine what action to take, consult the SAR Mission Coordinator (SMC) for advise or an alternate plan.

  7. GAR SCORING If the total GAR score is over 44, the mission is in the Red and should not be done. Consult the SMC for an alternate plan. It could be there is a better resource available to perform the mission.

  8. GAR SCORING • Supervision: What supervision is available for this mission. Consider the skill and experience level of the coxswain. What is the attitude of the coxswain? Is it positive, macho, etc? • Also, how readily available is the SAR Mission Coordinator (SMC) for advise and input in handling any situation that may come up. It is desirable to have a direct radio link with the SMC.

  9. GAR SCORING Planning: • How much planning went into the mission? • Were contingencies built into the plan? • Is there enough food and water onboard to carry out the mission if the mission carries on for an extended period? • Does everyone in the crew have the proper gear if weather conditions change? • Are all required systems onboard in working condition?

  10. GAR SCORING Crew Selection: • What is the experience and skill level of the selected crew? • Is all of the crew familiar with this facility and each other? • Do you have enough crew for the mission or are you operating with a bare minimum number of Crew? • Some missions like performing a search or a tow may require more than a minimum number of crew.

  11. GAR SCORING • Crew Fitness: • What is the physical, mental and emotional condition of the crew? • Is the crew well rested? Consider the age and dexterity of each crewmember. The older the crew, the higher the score. • Does anyone in the crew have any condition that could affect the outcome of the mission? • Is anyone on any medications that would affect the performance of the mission?

  12. GAR SCORING Environment: • What are the current and forecasted environmental factors? Wind, temperature, precipitation should be considered. • What are the limiting factors for this facility? (Note:)The facility limitations should be listed on the “Facilities Offer-for-Use” form. You are required to have RADAR to operate when visibility is under 1 mile.

  13. GAR SCORING (Mission or Event, or Evolution) Complexity: • How complex is the planned (mission, event or evolution) when weighed against the facility and the crew onboard? • Search and towing is much more complex than a routine safety patrol. • Maintaining a Safety Zone around a regatta or other event or attraction may get very complicated when there is a large number of the boating public present.

  14. GAR SCORING If any category is at or near 10, you may want to examine Why and see what could be done to lower the risk. The GAR score should be updated periodically as the Mission progresses. Consider passing the current GAR score to your shore- side (station) controlling unit with every position and status report as a reminder to re-examine your score.

  15. REPORTING • The GAR score must be passed to the station or controlling unit at the start of a patrol and any time the score changes. • It may be a good idea to pass the score with every “Operations and position” report so that you are reminded to review the score as the mission progresses.
