On each deck, your route of escape in the event of a fire or other emergency, is clearly marked. You should become familiar with these routes. You should also familiarise yourself with the location of portable fire extinguishers and lifejackets. 3.8 Emergency Muster Stations You will be assigned to a particular muster point or lifeboat station in the event of an emergency drill or otherwise. As soon as you embark, you should establish where your station is to be.
Muster lists are to be found on each deck.
If in doubt, consult the Master or Chief Officer. An emergency drill will normally be held as soon as the ship sails or within 24 hours, whichever is more practicable. Thereafter, drills will be held on a weekly basis. Co-operation on this matter is a vital part of your own and of ship safety. Emergency stations will be activated by 7 short blasts followed by 1 long blast on the siren followed by continuous ringing of the ship's fire or general alarm bells.
