Ship Types, Hierarchy, Navigation, and Safety Systems for New Joiners

Stepping aboard a merchant vessel for the first time confronts cadets with an overwhelming array of ship types, technical terminology, hierarchical structures, and safety systems that must become second nature before independent watchkeeping begins.

The US Coast Guard is pursuing an oil tanker in international waters near Venezuela, officials say, in what would be the third interception in less than two weeks if successful.
