Aim
The aim of the course is to provide students with knowledge about routines on-board small vessels. The student shall deepen and use knowledge from prior courses within a project consisting of all parts of a voyage, such as machine operation, route planning and log keeping, and ends with a skills examination in a simulator.Learning outcomes (after completion of the course the student should be able to)
- Identify watchkeeping routines in the engine room.
- Describe and use engine room logbook and oil record book.
- Apply safety manuals and safety procedures when working in smaller ships.
- Compile a simple drydocking technical specification for a ship.
- Describe basic concepts when docking and undocking.
- Compare the shipyard work order with the drydocking technical specification of the shipping company.
- Distinguish to which department a job/work order is connected to (engine, deck, electrical).
