The authors wish to thank the shipboard parties and the crews of the R/V Hans Brattström (Marine Biological Station of the University of Bergen), the R/V Polarstern (ARK-XXII/1a), the R/V G. M. Dannevig (Marine Biological Station of Flødevigen), the R/V Pourquoi Pas? (IFREMER), the R/V Kommandor Jack (EMEPC 2007) and the R/V Almirante Gago Coutinho (EMEPC 2008).
My job is to maintain the right balance between customer expectations and shipboard operations and also to supervise the crew members when they're out of control.
The Scottish writer Sir Walter Scott adapted the legend in his narrative poem Rokeby (1813); murder is committed on shipboard, and plague breaks out among the crew, closing all ports to the ship.

Kendall's energetic yet unvarnished style, vaguely off-putting on dry land, settles comfortably into appealing descriptions of shipboard life and her growing rapport with the crew.
Although the crew's water samples have yet to be analyzed, shipboard measurements showed that "concentrations of methane and some of the other components of natural gas, namely, ethane and propane, in the deep waters of the Gulf of Mexico are astonishingly high," Kessler announced at a press conference yesterday afternoon.
By deliberately augmenting employee surveillance (e.g. lighting, warning alarms), increasing guardianship (e.g. watchmen) and assigning specific on-board activities (e.g. antipiracy watch, shipboard security), a shipmaster can maximize visibility that leaves pirates sensing increased crew vigilance, which has been supported by previous research in other areas (Braga et al. 1999; Clifton 1993).
Passengers and crew — 710 survivors out of 2,224 aboard — were rescued thanks to shipboard wireless telegraphy, a new technology.
