Massachusetts Maritime Academy
Sea Term '97 Marine Transportation
Maintenance is part of the daily routine aboard a
Maritime vessel. Cadets are required to participate in various tasks such as
chipping paint, repainting, repairing lines, or stowing the ships gear. The
cadets shown are painting over aft, starboard side main deck. One of the most
important aspects of maintenance is safety, cadets wear eye and hearing
protection, along with steal-toe boots and when applicable, breathing
apparatus. Safety precautions are taken when ever appropriate.
