Plate SR-002 A manning office desk in daylight: a stack of seafarer files with coloured tabs, a passport and a certificate of competency laid open beside a telephone, a wall calendar behind, shot from slightly above at arm's length.
Manning offices, crewing pools, union lists and referrals: what each channel does with a seafarer's file, and what a candidate can show after months away.
How a crew change is planned backwards from the joining date, who pays for the journey, what a seafarer carries, and what happens when a flight is missed.
