Ted Blenkers-What does a Ship Captain do?

A captain's responsibilities are wide-ranging in expertise and include navigation, operation of the ship's equipment, business functions, and the assignment and monitoring of duties performed by all crew members. Ensuring all equipment receives proper maintenance and follows environmental regulations also falls under their jurisdiction.

Lesser, but equally important to their other duties, is the task of keeping regular logs throughout the journey, and supervising passengers and crew members embarking and disembarking the ship. Nearly everything that happens on the vessel must be rigorously documented and checked by the ship captain to keep a formal record of every excursion and the ship's functions throughout. In the instance of international travel, it is the captain's duty to meet the requirements of local and international customs and inspections.

They must also be responsible for the ship's security, both in terms of basic operation and under extreme circumstances, such as responding to threats from terrorists, pirates, hijackers, and stowaways
Problems that happen on ships need an experienced captain to solve. Ted can
resolve custom officials’ problems and contact buyers and suppliers.
Some tasks require marine experiences such as checking for oil spills or other
pollutants around harbors.

Ted is also able to do all the required calculations, use all electronic sounding
devices, charts, compasses, sextants, compute positions, and determine speeds.

Of course, directing and coordination with crewmembers and workers is
necessary for the safety of the ship and whoever and whatever on board.
Since he is the captain, inspecting vessels to make sure of efficiency and
operations and following all the regulations are among his duties.

Ted is an organized person; that is why the maintaining records of what happens on the ship, personnel reports, ship movements, weather conditions, and cargo and passenger status are easy for him and he does them by nature.
