Just guessing, but
An assistant engineer is there to assist the chief engineer who takes overall responsibility for the job
Why the MCA think the job is needed beats me
Probably the same qualifications but less experience

I like the way they make sure he pays for everything on the move, just to satisfy those who would be offended if he just carried on :D

Fitting a compass

Got an old compass from a mate and took it to pieces to clean, but made the fatal mistake of not making a note of how it came apart so now I can't remember how it goes together, anyone know ?
This is the one

What do you miss ?

As a liveaboard or ex-pat, are there things you miss ? something you find it hard to get hold of ?
If you've found a solution, what is it ? do you get the equivelant of red cross parcels from home ?
