A junior officer's competency is marked by an STCW license-an international honor of standard. Yet, in the raw reality of the sea, we often see OOWs as qualified amateurs men licensed to operate Radar, ARPA, andECDIS, but who lack a visceral understanding of the lethal potential within those screens. Companies and schools provide the what of danger, but they fail to prepare the how of a human's reaction. True knowledge for a Junior Officer isn't found in a manual; it is found in theability to translate instrument data into useful hints for situational awareness.

Visual lookout is first and last thing at bridge.

We should look out the bridge window first. What to look at is the lesson you had to learn while you were a cadet on the bridge, before you ever earned that CoC.
