The majority of your time will be divided between ensuring the lifeboat and its equipment are maintained to the highest possible standard, training the crew and inspiring their progress. You’ll take them on seagoing exercises, identifying ways they can improve and imparting your valuable knowledge to them so that when an emergency call out does occur, you, your crew and your lifeboat will be absolutely prepared.
