SOLAS

The international convention for the Safety Of Life At Sea is an international treaty that sets minimum safety standards in the construction, equipment, and operation of marine vessels. It is generally regarded as the most important treaty concerning the safety of maritime vessels.

YANMAR’s commitment to research and development ensures that all of our products deliver outstanding performance with regard to safety. SOLAS certification is vital to life-saving, emergency, and other specific categories of commercial vessels. At YANMAR, we are dedicated to engineering an extensive selection of our product range with the additional features required by the rigorous SOLAS regulations. SOLAS approved YANMAR Marine engines are suitable for rescue, life boats, and crew tender boats for the harshest of situations.

All YANMAR engines listed above with SOLAS available have received the EC-type examination certificate. The SOLAS option must be specified at the time of ordering an engine and cannot be retrofitted to products that have already shipped from YANMAR’s factories.
