Deck crew are important members of the John Bunyan crew. They have responsibility for the safety of passengers boarding or alighting from the boat, securing the boat at moorings, operating locks and providing a look-out at the front of the boat, warning the helm via radio communication of any dangers, or other craft.
Key tasks include setting up the safety and operating equipment at the start of the cruise, taking lines ashore and securing the boat, operating the locks and maintaining a forward look-out whilst the boat is in motion. At the end of the cruise they are responsible for stowing all equipment safely, and securing the boat.
Ideally deck crew volunteers should be able to commit to at least 2 shifts of 4-6 hours per month from April until October. Full training, including boat safety procedures, will be given.
