Officers Role
A ship is an industrial environment. It is a dangerous place to work, but it can be made safe by proper leadership and planning
Officers Role
Most junior sailors feel that they are immune to danger. You as a leader must ensure they do not find out how wrong they are. The safety officer must not get involved in the processes going on around him, but keep focused on the big picture Allow the BM to do their job, if they cant get it done, get a new BM, do not leave your role as safety officer.
When mooring, keep line handlers in safe zone. Also monitor tattletales for possible line break
Towing, same as mooring only station an ax near by the line to cut it if necessary.
