Ahoy!

It's Monday on TSGB - or is it Sunday?? We crossed the International Date Line at some point yesterday and are still on our quest of changing the clocks manually until we reach South Korea. 

Not much has changed since yesterday... Cadets are still working on completing various projects as new projects arise. All aboard are keeping busy despite each day feeling like Groundhog Day!

Bridge ops

Bridge rotations have been chill lately - although we can sometimes tell when a new 3/C cadet is on the helm. It takes a little time to get used to steering, but once they get acclimated, it's smooth sailing once again.

Professor Satterwhite instructs engineering cadets on how to use the emergency steering gear control system. This is an impotant skill to learn, in case there is an emergency situation where the bridge loses power.

Fair winds and following seas!
