For many out there it is a struggle to perform the tests since time restrictions weather restrictions and chasing the ETA is a priority on which on my opinion shouldn't be. I am making this video in order to help others to build their confidence with the performance of the subject tests. In this video you will see how to test the main engine on the AHEAD and ASTERN position from the Bridge and the Bridge Wing consoles plus the indicators on the Bridge while we will be performing the steering gear test with all available mean, actual steering gear wheel, Non Follow up system and System Override. I also perform the test of the Ships Whistle and the Morse Key Light plus dimming up all the equipment which needs to be checked. I hope you enjoy. After many years being in the industry I found out that it is a struggle on how to perform the pre-arrival tests on the main engines and on the steering gear and equipment from the Bridge Officers. #BridgeTeam #BridgeOfficer #Prearrivalchecks #Familiarization #Officers #Captain #Navigating safely #Seaman #Captain #SecondOfficer #Procedures #Steeringgear #mainengines #sire2 #vetting Have you managed to have a look on my latest videos?
