Coveralls while at sea

If somebody falls over board they jump in after them  >

Not a job for the faint of heart I take it......

Normally after the ship turns around, and they get in the rescue boat, and the crane lowers the rescue boat with the divers in it....

I forgot to add, my answer is submarine specific. We don't have any "rescue boats" the rescue swimmer is just that .

Any evolutions that require the crew to be on the casing (or the "upper deck")  the rescue swimmer is up there with us fully dressed already in case one of us go over.  We don't have any railings obviously so it can be dangerous being up there while underway.

Can't be any more dangerous than turret surfing a Cougar down the highway, listening to the Beach Boys over the headset ;D

I have a solution for the OP if he really wants to wear coveralls as a rescue swimmer.  Go on a BSQ  and get qualified subs then he can be a rescue swimmer on one of the subs while wearing coveralls :skull: :sarcasm:
