Abstract: Abstract Simanindo Port is a very important ferry port in connecting Sumatra Island with Samosir Island via waterways. In the transportation system, security and safety are highly prioritized as a form of providing good services. Safety is demonstrated not only to service users, but also to ship operators/ship owners. In this case the author compares the completeness of safety equipment and certification, but the current conditions are not in accordance with the Regulation of the Director General of Land Transportation Number: KP.3424/AP.402/DRJD/2020 concerning River and Lake Ships. Based on the analysis carried out, the level of compliance with safety equipment on 17 ships traditional vessels operating at Simanindo Port, namely Baju Helper 12%, Lifebouy 47%, Rocket Parachute 0%, Tali Buangan 100%, and Peluit 100% of the ships already have and are in complete certification condition on 17 traditional ships operating at Simanindo Port, namely Ship Measurement Letters 100%, 0% Ship Registration Certificate, 100% Ship Nationality Certificate, 24% River Lake Ship Safety Certificate, and 30% Ship Crew Proficiency Certificate. Based on the analysis carried out, ships operating on the Simanindo-Tigaras route have not been equipped with safety equipment and certification as regulated in the Director General of Land Transportation Regulation Number: KP.3424/AP.402/DRJD/2020 concerning River and Lake Ships. So it is necessary to fulfill the completeness of safety equipment and certification by ship operators/ship owners. This can happen by means of the Lake Toba KSOPP providing outreach regarding the importance of complete safety equipment and certification as well as holding an inspection of the completeness of safety equipment and certification.
