But sewing is in fact part of a Boatswain\u2019s job on ship and during OPERATION CARIBBE, one Boatswain is doing just that.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">\u201cIt was a last minute decision to add a sewing machine to our kit,\u201d explains the LS Boatswain, who cannot be named for operational security.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">\u201cBut it has already come in handy, allowing me to make some additional privacy curtains for around the accommodations pod.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Halifax-Class ships usually include a Boatswain as a sailmaker as part of their crew, but it is unusual to find a Boatswain at a sewing machine on a Kingston-Class ship like HMCS <i>Nanaimo<\/i>.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">\u201cYou\u2019d be surprised how much sewing is needed on a ship,\u201d adds the Boatswain. \u201cUniform repairs, covers for boats, name tags; I have even sewn some fancy napkins for a reception.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Learning the basics of using a sewing machine is part of QL-3 Boatswain training and at the QL-5 level they are required to make bags and other small projects to hone their skills. While it is part of the core training for the trade, it\u2019s is not always a Boatswain\u2019s first exposure to sewing.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">\u201cI first learned in junior high, and then learned more from my grandmother,\u201d adds the Boatswain.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">\u201cI actually like doing it. There\u2019s a rhythm to it that clears the head and it is great to see your finished project and the results of your hard work.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">For this Boatswain, sewing is a regular part of his shift as a day worker during CARIBBE when he is not working on other duties, such as special sea duty helmsman or as a small boat coxswain.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">\u201cI am working on curtains now, but I am sure other projects will come up. There is almost always something to do on a ship at sea \u2013 sewing included. I am glad we brought a machine \u2013 it saves having to do big projects by hand.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">As HMCS <i>Nanaimo<\/i> continues on OPERATION CARIBBE, our sewing needs will be well mended.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Boatswains\u2026 sew what?
