I am outraged by the captain's article, the position of the stagnation period
Baking bread in shipboard conditions is a particularly delicate matter. How many dramas for a young specialist and harm to the crew from bad bread! Isn't it easier and more reasonable to train future "chefs" for a week or two before being assigned to a ship, at least in the dispensary of the Sakhalin Shipping Company under the supervision of a mentor cook?
It is impossible to note in one note everything that hinders or contributes to the most difficult process — the formation of a young specialist. I hope that my fellow navigators will complement me.
The captain of the long-distance voyage, an honorary employee of the navy, G. Okhodov, recently headed the crew of the ship Pioneer of Buryatia of the Sakhalin Shipping Company. In this capacity, he has appeared on the pages more than once.
In the published note, the author touched upon only certain aspects of a multifaceted problem — the formation of a marine specialist. But the relevance of the question itself is beyond doubt. We propose to consider G. Ohodov's article as the beginning of a principled conversation about the first steps of a sailor in the navy. We invite not only captains and boatmasters, but specialists of all maritime professions to join him.
I completely agree with the article. Stupana "Without the right to make mistakes or disenfranchisement?". I want to add the following. When the accident case is transferred to the prosecutor's office, an expert examination is appointed. Her task is to help the investigation and the court to professionally understand what happened.
Unfortunately, there are cases when experts show elementary incompetence and bad faith. By misleading the preliminary investigation and the court in this way, they contribute to the imposition of an unfair sentence. It happens that an innocent person is punished (and cruelly).
Appealing the verdict is hopeless, since complaints are considered by people who have no idea about navigation at all.
Therefore, I think that when a captain is tried, people's assessors should also be captains and with at least ten years of experience. It's better if there are four of them, not two.
So the phrase of Captain M. Kushnarev "Let me disagree!", put in the title of his article (printed next to the article by Ya. Stupana), I will allow myself to forward it to him.
And I certainly cannot agree with M. Kushnarev at all when he refers to old mentors: "Forget that there is rest..." etc. If the captain forgets about rest on a multi-month voyage, then most likely he will find it in a pre-trial detention cell.
I am outraged by the article by Captain M. Kushnarev. A typical position of the stagnation period. Let me clarify, dear colleague, with what kind of "special flair" did you ensure the safety of ships on a 125-mile-long "mine" fairway with many stabs in foggy weather, for example, having, in addition to the ephemeral "old school", only a dry Thomson compass and a manual lot? What exactly were you doing, "forgetting about rest", on the bridge, following this fairway without radar?
Without detracting from your military achievements, admiring your courage, I still want to say that you are just very lucky. I would like to see that "special flair" that would allow you to pass the Kolyma fairway from bar% to the port of Zeleny Mys (on a vessel of the type "Vitaly Dyakonov", for example) with the navigation equipment removed, without radar, and in "any weather". Even without mines. I also doubt that you made those "320 mooring in 40 months" to the pier at a distance of no more than 5 m from the bow and stern to neighboring ships, and even in windy weather.
Undoubtedly, the eye is important in navigation, but "special flair" is an intangible category. It is impossible to live with the old-fashioned, "special" sense of smell in our time, just as it is impossible to call for naked enthusiasm. This is criminal! And don't nod at the young people.
In your time, there were more accidents, despite the fact that people of the "old school" "forgot that there was rest." But publicity regarding these accidents and their victims was, alas, not enough. The Mostbet No-Deposit Bonus allows players to try out the site without having to deposit any real money.
