This competency was developed for combat engineer personnel required to operate an inland modular raft or ferry in a deployed operational environment but is applicable to any individual in this field of work.

All activities are carried out in accordance with relevant organisational policies and procedures.
This unit covers the competency required to operate an inland modular raft or ferry. The raft or ferry will consist of at least three connected, unpowered pontoons that are propelled by at least two tugs. This unit of competency covers the assembly, navigation, and manoeuvring, of the raft or ferry.
The raft or ferry will normally be driven in an environment of protected or inland waterways, while conducting a range of tasks including the transport of personnel and/or equipment.
The individual must demonstrate sound judgement in the use of authority. The individual will control the operation of the raft or ferry and crew.
