| The role of the crew on a dive boat is no less important than that of the Coxswain. It is an individuals responsibility to ensure that they are both fully informed of the requirements on the day and the ensure their own personal safety and comfort.
Some simple steps can be taken to ensure that this happens and will include: Making sure you pay attention to all briefings given by the Coxswain and the Marshal especially where this relates to safety on the boat. Making sure you follow that guidance but also exercise common sense (e.g. even though you may not have been specifically briefed not to do so, positioning yourself in the bow of a fast RIB is not a sensible location as this is the area most subject to violent movement such as when passing over the wake of another vessel)
