not in accordance with the procedures for transporting vehicles on board. The distance between
one vehicle and another is too tight, which often results in damage to the body of the vehicle.
Vehicles that enter the ship are positioned transversely and without lashing, so that it is very
dangerous for vehicle operators or ship operators on the ship and there are no officers provided
to tie the vehicle rope. In an effort to ensure the safety of passengers and vehicles, the Ministry
of Transportation has issued Ministerial Regulation Number 115 of 2016 concerning Procedures
for Transporting Vehicles on Ships. Then regarding the binding of vehicles on ships, it is further
regulated in the Regulation of the Minister of Transportation Number 30 of 2016 concerning the
Obligation to Bind Vehicles to Cross Transportation. The two regulations aim to improve the
safety of Ro-Ro passenger ships, comply with safety standards for the transportation of vehicles
on board, minimize overloading, misplaced vehicle loading and the absence of binding of
vehicles on board.
RESEARCH METHODS
In conducting research, the type of research used is descriptive qualitative research. To
conduct an analysis of the distance between vehicles on a ship, the need for vehicle lashing
equipment on board, as well as the labor of vehicle lashing officers, a comparison of the existing
conditions with the expected conditions can be explained. The scope of discussion that will be
described in this study is limited only to the transportation and binding of vehicles and lashing
officers who are needed on board the ship at the Hunimua Ferry Terminal based on the Minister
of Transportation Regulation Number 115 of 2016 and the Regulation of the Minister of
Transportation Number 30 of 2016.
Data were collected using data collection techniques consisting of observation methods
and measurement methods to obtain primary data in the form of data on the distance between
vehicles on board, the number of lashing equipment on board, and the needs of vehicle lashing
officers. Meanwhile, to obtain secondary data used library methods and institutional methods
to obtain data on ship characteristics and vehicle productivity data.

Based on the Regulation of the Minister of Transportation Number 115 of 2016 article
5 paragraph (2), that every vehicle entering the ship must be weighed in order to find out
information about the gross weight of the vehicle. Information about weight is also useful
for lashing officers on board in determining the number of lashings to be used. Based on
the author's observations, this obligation has not been carried out by the management of
Hunimua Port. Therefore, the Hunimua crossing port should provide a weighbridge at least
1 with the type of portable weigh bridge or permanent weigh bridge.
2. Placement of the Vehicle on the Ship
Based on the Regulation of the Minister of Transportation Number 115 of 2016 article
17 paragraph 1, the vehicle must be placed longitudinally (longitudinally) in the direction of
the bow or stern of the ship and must not be crossed. Based on the survey results, there
are still vehicles that are not suitable for placement on the ship, namely there are vehicles
that are placed crosswise.
3. Vehicle placement space must be sterile from the presence of passengers during the voyage
Based on the Regulation of the Minister of Transportation Number 115 of 2016 article
17 paragraph (2), that the vehicle placement space must be sterile from the presence of
passengers during the voyage. Based on the survey results that the vehicle placement room
is not sterile. Due to the fact that there are still drivers who prefer to rest in the vehicle,
there are even many people passing by in the vehicle placement room during the voyage.

Based on the Regulation of the Minister of Transportation Number 115 of 2016 article
15 paragraph (1), the loading space must be clean from spilled oil and grease. Based on the
survey in the field, the average ships operating at Hunimua Port have dirty cargo spaces
and oil spills.
5. Vehicle binding
Based on the Regulation of the Minister of Transportation Number 115 of 2016 article
18, the number of straps must be adjusted to the overall weight of the vehicle, as for the
number of vehicle straps based on the overall weight of the vehicle as follows:
a. Vehicles whose total weight is between 3.5 (three point five) tons to 20 (twenty) tons,
must use at least 2 (two) lashing gear with a safe working load that is suitable for each
side of the vehicle.
b. Vehicles with a total weight of between 20 (twenty) tons to 30 (thirty) tons, must use
at least 3 (three) lashing gears with a safe working load that is suitable for each. side
of the vehicle.
c. Vehicles with a total weight of between 30 (thirty) tons to 40 (forty) tons, must use at
least 4 (four) lashing gears with a safe working load that is suitable for each. side of the
vehicle.
Based on the survey results in the table above, it can be explained that none of the ships
operating at the Hunimua Ferry Terminal use vehicle straps, even some truck drivers carry
clamps on vehicle wheels and use them themselves. Therefore it is clear that the level of
vehicle safety while sailing on this ship is very low and dangerous. Therefore, there is an
important role played by PT. ASDP Ambon Branch as the manager of the Hunimua Port to
further discipline the applicable regulations so that the level of vehicle safety while sailing
can be guaranteed.

From the table above, it can be seen that the loading is above KMP. Terubuk is not in
accordance with the Regulation of the Minister of Transportation Number 115 of 2016
concerning Procedures for Transporting Vehicles on Ships, so that it can interfere with safety on
board.

Based on the survey results above, it is clear that the distance between vehicles is very close
together, this is very dangerous and very influential for the level of safety both for service users
and for ship operators and also based on the results of interviews with ship operators that they
are only concerned with the benefits that will be they get so as to ignore the safety of the
passengers.
According to the Minister of Transportation Regulation Number 115 of 2016 Article 20, the
distance between vehicles and walls is as follows:
1. The distance between one side of the vehicle is at least 60 cm.
2. The distance between the face and rear of each vehicle is 30 cm.
3. For vehicles whose side is adjacent to the ship wall, the distance of 60 cm is calculated from
the inner wall layer or the outer side of the ivory.

minutes. According to Utomo and Susilowati (2017) in their article, lashing one vehicle can
take 3-5 minutes by 1 person. The time for loading and unloading vehicles on board is 20
minutes. The following is the number of officers needed on each ship studied by the author:
Table 5. Vehicle Distance When Loading at KMP. Inelika

CONCLUSION
Based on existing data and analysis results, the following conclusions are drawn:
1. The procedure for loading vehicles on a ferry on the Hunimua - Waipirit route is still not in
accordance with vehicle loading as regulated in the Minister of Transportation Regulation
Number 115 of 2016 concerning Procedures for Transporting Vehicles Aboard Ships that is:
a. Weigh bridges are not available. Vehicles to be carried on board are not equipped with
information on the weight and type of cargo.
b. There are still vehicles on board that are placed crosswise.
c. The loading space is not sterile from the presence of passengers during the voyage.
d. There were oil spills and grease on the ship.
e. Every vehicle on board, be it the front (bow), middle (midship), rear (stern) is not
subject to vehicle binding.
f. The distance between the vehicles is still close together.
g. There are no special officers who tie the vehicle.
2. The obligation to tie the vehicle on board a ferry on the Hunimua - Waipirit route is still not
in accordance with the vehicle loading procedure that has been regulated in the Minister
of Transportation Regulation Number 30 of 2016 concerning the Obligation to Bind Vehicles
to Crossing Transport Ships. such as the absence of strapping vehicles on the Hunimua -
Waipirit crossing ship because the straps are only stored in the warehouse.
3. The need for officers needed to improve the transportation system on board namely
a. At KMP. The worst it takes 2 officers to tie the vehicle.
b. At KMP. Rokatenda required 5 officers to tie the vehicle.
