Beyond the basic tenets of mastering practical details, seamanship is built on skill in handling deck equipment, a thorough awareness of safety devices and how to use them, and a willingness to take pains with the preparation, stowage and maintenance of unglamorous but essential pieces of equipment. Sound seamanship often averts the need for emergency action.
