On a merchant ship it is the watch officer who truly feels the full
weight of responsibility for the safety of the vessel. This book
not only helps a new watch officer shoulder that responsibility,
but also reinforces the knowledge and skills of the experienced
mate. The complete scope of watchstanding duties, the use of modern
bridge equipment, voyage planning, ship-handling, and shipboard
emergencies are all addressed. Of special interest are the chapters
on bridge simulation training and marine casualties. The new
edition is updated to reflect the changes in the industry and now
features real-life case studies. Packed full of examples, forms,
and procedures, this guide proves indispensable to the mariner.
