Ship's Crew

Shipboard Operations and Security; Vessel Management and Crew Governance

Description

A collective of vessel-operating personnel responsible for day-to-day navigation, systems upkeep, onboard security, and routine management of the ship. Presented as an experienced, self-sufficient cohort—vernacularly called 'these old boys'—they maintain operational control and resist external interference. Their internal hierarchy includes designated security staff, and their competence underpins disputes about protagonist intervention.
