Engineering Department

There are five people in the Engineering Department. They are responsible for the highest light on the main mast to the lowest pump in the bilge, and everything mechanical in between. The Engineering Department consists of one Chief Marine Engineer (CME), a First (1AE) and Third (3AE) Engineer, one Junior Engineer-Unlicensed (JEU) and one Engine Utilityman (EU). The Engineering Department operates, maintains and repairs all propulsion and auxiliary machinery. The department also maintains the shipboard electrical system, deck machinery, launch engines, engineering spaces, ventilation, refrigeration, hydraulic, and sanitation systems.
