MARPOL Annex V and the Leisure Marine Industry: Closing the Awareness Gap
MARPOL Annex V has been in force for decades and applies globally. While it is often associated with commercial shipping, its scope extends beyond large vessels and into leisure craft, marinas, charter fleets, boatyards, and onboard operations. In practice, this means that many of the products routinely used for cleaning, maintenance, and day-to-day vessel care fall within its remit.
