Article from Wife of One that was lost on the Specialist

[QUOTE=Bamatug;184489]Manning requirements are needed for all positions. The CG should require that all personnel blue and brown water be licensed. That there be 3 people for each department. 3 CPT 3 os 3 engineer and 3 cook aboard each vessel at a minimum. So that everyone will work an 8/16 schedule
Sone will say wages would go down. I doubt it the mariners wouldn’t Allow it
How many deaths need to occur[/QUOTE]

3 Captains and 3 Cooks?? Sounds like a receipt for a disaster. Too many cooks makes for a mess in the Galley. Too many Captains in the wheelhouse could lead to utter confusion.
I don’t know about US rules, but in the rest of the world you can only have ONE Master on a ship.
(You can have as many “Captains” as you want, I resume, as long as it is a title, not a position)
