The advent of automation and control technologies is capable of redefining the
traditional modalities for performing human activities at sea. Due to their
implementation in the maritime field, the activity of navigation does not necessarily
require anymore the presence of people on board; nowadays, a ship may be automatized
and controlled directly from the shore. This paper investigates whether and how the use
of Maritime Autonomous Surface Ships (MASS) complies with the existing
international rules on safety of navigation. After a short introduction, section 2 provides
a general overview of the design and production of MASS, focusing on their technical
and ergonomic features. Then, section 3 reconstructs the international legal framework
object of analysis. Subsequently, section 4 analyzes the potential inconsistencies of SOLAS, STCW and COLREGs provisions in regulating the use of MASS, paying
particular attention to the relevance of the temporal factor in interpreting written
norms. Finally, the last pages of this study report the most relevant conclusions reached
through the conduction of the above conducted legal analysis.

This paper shows the changes that have occurred to the Manila Amendments to the International Convention on Standards of Training, Certification and Watchkeeping for Seafarers Code (STCW 2010 Code). In the School of Maritime Engineering of the University of Cantabria with the degrees in Nautical Engineering and Maritime Transport (Deck Officers), Marine Engineering (Engine Officers) and Maritime Engineering (Naval Engineering), we have taken into consideration all these changes and have adapted them to the academic training of the STCW 2010 Code. We recognize the need to train our maritime protection students (future officers, Captains and Chief Engineers of the Spanish Merchant Marine) with the latest and most effective tools and protocols. Thanks to the Maritime Collaborative Website of the Spanish Navy (ENCOMAR) we can complement and ensure the theoretical and practical training of our students to improve their knowledge on Maritime Security.
