Most junior enlisted sailors feel that they are immune from danger. –It is the senior (not old!) personnel who must ensure that they don't find out how wrong they are! The safety officer must resist the temptation to get involved in the activities. The safety officer must resist the temptation to get involved in the activities.

37. © 2001 By Default! A Free sample background from www.pptbackgrounds.fsnet.co.uk Slide 37 Working with lines and rope Gloves Gloves –When working with wire rope, a person must wear gloves. There are many "fishhooks" (fragments of wire) that can cut a hand, and the grease that covers most rope is not good for an open cut.

Always keep this in mind when working with synthetic line. Stand in safe zones. Synthetic lines, when parted, react like a rubber band. Always keep this in mind when working with synthetic line.
