Best Answer

A shipboard deck watch is essentially a safety and security watch on the main deck (topside on a submarine). Deck watches are stationed when a ship is in port, and they are responsible for a range of duties, including:

1. Making hourly checks of the ship's draft

2. Checking/verifying ID/clearances for visitors and allowing access

3. Maintaining a watch on the adjacent area for unauthorized vessels/small craft

4. Making general announcements

5. Sounding alarms if a topside emergency occurs

Deck watches, along with Damage Control, are typically the first watch that new sailors aboard ship qualify for.
