Salty compass-Near miss

Описание: Welcome back to the deep Dive. Our mission today is, well, it’s focused on a pretty uncomfortable truth in any high stakes job, but especially at sea . We’re going to be challenging that dangerous sense of relief that comes with a close call where we’re diving into some sources that really redefine these incidents, turning them from a simple move that was close into maybe the most valuable asset you have in your safety playbook .

I mean, every single sailor, it doesn’t matter if you’re the captain and the newest deckhand . You know that feeling that heartstopping split second jolt of adrenaline? It’s totally universal. Oh, absolutely . And the sources, they lay out these really visceral examples, you know, think about it .

You’re on rooms, the deck is wet, it’s late, you slip and you slap hard, but your hand to chutes out, you grab the railing, you’re fine . Or the other classic one, you’re in the engine room, right? A heavy wrench slides off a catwalk way up high . It clatters down and lands with this, this awful thud like two inches from your boot .

And what’s the immediate, totally human reaction? Pure relief. You exhale, you try to get your heart rate back to normal . You think, wow, got lucky there, dodged a bullet . And then you just yeah, you carry on, you survive. Exactly. We call it a “Near-Miss”.
