In this publication, risk management and effective teamwork are effectively explained through dramatic illustration and crew dialogue. The book informs all levels of a ship’s crew, both consolidating and introducing key training information. It guides readers through the basic familiarisation procedures with which they should be familiar on any fishing boat, including safety clothing, fire drills and giving first aid. It ensures crew are safe on both legs of a fishing trip and during the fishing itself.
