(EEK) Just like flying a Boeing... don't reckon the OOW gets to sit down for long as there's too much paperwork these days (*))

Mate on watch would have been shot at dawn for daring to sit down on watch.

Why wait?

Things have moved on is 2009 we are in !
We should be improving all the time not keeping old ways.

Weechief - with you, entirely on that. Doubt that any OOW gets the opportunity to sit for long. Regards, Rick

No seat for the poor old AB though (Jester)

Peter,
When I was in the Arklow Manor the AB sat in the port seat and the Mate in the starboard. When you are doing six on six off, standing up for your watch gets a bit wearying.
