the seaworthiness and efficient operation of the ship, the safety of the crew, cargo
and equipment on boards.
The Chief Officer (chief mate) is the head of the deck department and
directly responsible under the Master for cargo work. He manages all work of the
deck department. He keeps a navigational watch from 0400 to 0800 and from1600

when the ship’s under way and under the Chief Officer when the ship is in port.
The Second Officer is responsible for navigation equipment, charts and
navigational documents. He is in charge of the navigational watch from 0000 to

the Bosun’s orders. His basic tasks are cleaning and maintaining decks, chipping,
painting and handling lines when berthing and un-berthing. He also assists the
Able Seafarer Deck in keeping watch.
A cadet assists deck officers in various duties on board a ship, such as
maintenance and repair duties.
Each crewmember of the deck department has other duties except from the
