Abstract

Longboats using outboard engines powered by 200–400 PK with a capacity of 30–50 people, operating in the waters of the Musi River, have received a negative response from users of river transportation services, especially regarding services in terms of safety, comfort, and appropriateness or suitability for the facilities provided. Has been prepared such as dimensions and smooth movement in the long boat. The results of the research and study showed that the seating area for passengers was apparently inadequate, both in terms of service to service users and from the provisions of the applicable laws and regulations, in addition, the corridors inside the ship where people walk to their seats also did not meet the reasonable limits reviewed. From the average height of the male population in Indonesia which is 166 cm compared to the current height of the longboat corridor of < 150 cm. Therefore, the results of this research recommend that the corridor height and seating load need to be reviewed and re-engineered to follow the provisions or in accordance with the reasonable needs of passengers.
