Does Your Safety Management System Make Your Operation Safer?

the best thing a young, inexperienced Third Mate can do when in doubt is to call the Captain. I wouldn’t want a young inexperienced kid making maneuvers without adult supervision. Call the Captain and wake him up. Let him, with his far superior experience level, assess the situation and give you guidance. That is, after all, what a big ship Captain gets paid for. I understand its different on a tug or other vesel with a two watch system.

I always tell my mates don’t call me to witness an accident!
