When I saw the title I immediatly remembered my sailing days.
Now I have never served aboard a large ship like that but have been on quite a few offshore junkets on a sailboat.
Offshore sailboat racing is noted as one of the most dangerous sports in the world. I have seen my fair share of 'accidents' fingers ripped off or mangled, teeth busted out, limbs fractured, eyes gouged... sigh those were the good old days
