Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

Sea Trial brings the reader along on a very detailed odyssey ranging from the authors days as a merchant marine cadet at a state maritime academy in the early sixties to his more-than-a-quarter century of service with the US Coast Guard both on board the ship and in the marine safety program. Written by a licensed merchant marine engineer, the point of view of this book is one that is rarely seen: someone speaking from the deck plates in the boiler room rather than the traditional view from the bridge. The book details various voyages, safety inspections, casualties, fires, repairs, oil spills, and sea trials that occurred during that time. It is a look at the work of hundreds of Coast Guard sailors and Marine Inspection personnel whose story rarely, if ever, gets told.
