摘要

A general cargo vessel was berthed and stevedores were discharging the vessel's cargo of packaged timber from the holds. Once completed a dockside crane was used to lift the ship's cargo slings back on board. Deck crew, including the cook/ deckhand who had come forward to announce that lunch was ready, decided to stow the slings in the forecastle stowage space before eating.
