These papers and subsequent discussion, together with authors' replies, are published as the Transactions (bound volumes of reviewed papers and discussion). From 2003 onwards, the Transactions are published as (Part A) - International Journal of Maritime Engineering and Transactions (Part B) - International Journal of Small Craft Technology. Transactions are published in printed format, CDROM and online.

Copies of the current Transactions papers available for written discussion can be downloaded and online written comment submitted to the Institution for publication.
