The document outlines various checklists and procedures for vessel navigation in ice-infested waters, both with and without icebreaker escort, as well as procedures for icebreaker towing.

The key steps outlined are to identify the ice entry point and angle, enter at under 6 knots while monitoring for wind/tide changes, and complete all checks prior to entering any ice.

The key steps outlined are to communicate and agree on the tow plan with the icebreaker, ready the deck team and tow line connection, connect the tow line, advise when ready, and inspect the tow arrangement before commencing the tow.
