The Maritime Code contains dozens of regulations relating to the captain of a sea- going vessel, placing a large number of duties on him, or giving him various rights. Such regulations are contained in almost all parts of the legislation. However, in Title Ill a range of modifications has been introduced in comparison with regulations up till now. It must be generally stated that the regulations contains in Title III of the new Maritime Code do not deviate radically from the provisions of the legislation in force hitherto. A new and certainly positive regulation (in respect of what may be broadly understood as the safety of any vessel) is Article 35 of the Code. It states that "The captain of a ship may oppose the owner in relation to the composition and professional qualifications of persons inscribed in the crew list." This regulation may help to improve the quality of a ship's crew, giving the captain the possibility of eliminating from its complement workers who are unsuitable for the profession.}, type={Artykuły / Articles}, title={A New Understanding of the Function of a Ship's Captain}, URL={http://ochroma.man.poznan.pl/Content/120604/PDF-MASTER/4_PM_XVIII_Luczywek_Nowe.pdf}, }
