Captain's Orders

"Captain's Orders" refer to directives or commands issued by a ship's captain, who holds the highest authority on board. These orders ensure the safety, navigation, and proper operation of the vessel, especially during complex or emergency situations. Crew members are required to follow these instructions precisely, as they are based on the captain’s expertise and responsibility for the ship’s successful and secure operation. Essentially, Captain's Orders are the authoritative instructions that maintain order and safety during a voyage.
