Boatswain, английский
- The officer who superintends the boat-sails, ship`s-sails, rigging, canvas, colours, anchors, cables and cordage, committed to his charge. he ought also to take care that the blocks and running ropes are regularly placed to answer the purposes for which they are intended, and that the sails are properly fitted to their yards and stays, and well-furled or reefed when occasion requires. he pipes the hands to their several duties, seeing that they attend his call, and ought to be in every way a thorough seaman. although termed boatswain, the boats are not in his charge. they, with the spars, &c., and stores for repair, belong to the carpenter. the boatswain is the officer of the first lieutenant; he gives no order, but reports defects, and carries out the will of his superior.
- This is the oldest extant naval title, dating back to the 6th century anglo-saxon batswegen (boat-servant) who was essentially the ship’s master responsible for its sailing and navigation. in 1040, the title was brought back (as boatswain) for one of four non-military warrant officers created for warships provided and crewed by the cinque ports. in days of sail the boatswain had to be a first-class seaman, able to command the respect of highly-skilled professional sailors. he was responsible for sails, rigging, anchors, cables, and boats; could stand watch, but was not eligible to command ships. the sailmaker and boatswains mates reported to him. u.s. naval regulations of the late 19th century specified: a candidate for a boatswain’s appointment must be of correct habits, not less than 21 nor more than 35 years of age; must have been at least seven years at sea, and have served at least one year as a petty officer; he must be a thorough practical seaman, and understand cutting, fitting, and rigging according to regulations, the weighing, catting, fishing, securing, and transportation of anchors and the working of cables, the erection and securing of sheers, the handling of purchases, masting, securing yards, etc., and be able to write sufficiently to keep an account of stores. nowadays, in naval service, the boatswain is the warrant or petty officer responsible for a vessel’s equipment and deck crew. in merchant service he is a petty officer who performs somewhat like the foreman in an industrial plant, being the principal contact between the deck crew and the chief or first mate. the title is frequently but differently abbreviated—to bosun in the usn, bos’n in the rn, or bos’un in merchant service. boatswain’s call or pipe: this high-pitched metal whistle is unique to sea services, where it is used to convey orders and honor visitors. for centuries it was the sailing ship’s pa system, emitting shrill penetrating notes that could be heard by topmen high in the rigging and seamen down in the deep, dark orlop. the current instrument has been used in english ships since at least 1248, when it was used to call crossbowmen to action stations, but it has much earlier origins. in the classical era, greek and roman galleys cadenced the stroke of their oars by drum and flute or whistle. because it has always served to pass orders, it has often been worn as an honorable symbol of authority. from 1485 to 1562 the “whistle of honour” was a golden version suspended from a golden chain and worn as a badge of office by the lord high admiral of england. silver versions known as “whistles of command” were used throughout english fleets for the transmission of orders by shipmasters, boatswains and coxswains. today, wearing one is restricted to quartermasters and boatswain’s mates. all its parts have nautical names; the mouth is the “gun”; the ball is the “buoy”; the leaf is its “keel”; and the suspending ring is the “shackle.” in the usn the instrument is known as the boatswain’s “pipe,” and the message or order it conveys is a “call.” in the rn the terms are reversed, with the instrument called boatswain’s “call,” while “sounding” (playing) it is known as “piping,” and the message is a “pipe.” neither service ever uses the term “whistle.” some calls/pipes have to be followed by an explanatory verbal command, but many are time-honored and understood as orders by themselves. this was a great advantage in 17th/18th century navies when many members of a ship’s company might be foreigners with little understanding of languages other than their own. when the pipe is not self-explanatory, the crew is called to attention and the verbal order is preceded by “d’ye hear there” in the british and “now hear this” in the u.s. navy. boatswain’s chair: a rope-suspended plank on which a person can be hoisted aloft, transferred across open water to another vessel, or swung over the side for work such as painting. boatswain’s locker: compartment where deck gear is stored. usually forward. boatswain’s mate: a petty officer who reports to and assists the boatswain. boatswain’s pipe: see boatswain’s call.
