drills are not mata gerudi bosch or black and decker used for drilling holes on the wall to hang picture - they meant latihan or traning conducted every now and then to keep the officers and crews ready for any emergencies...basically its is conducted to maintain high status of readiness
at sea...the ship are our home...it had its own power...capable of providing life support to its crew....air conditioning or heating...hot water for shower and cooking...generators to run electricity...so that we can play PS3 with flatscreen 42 inch plasma tv,keep all the food fresh....apart from running machinery and navigation equipment's that kept the ship underway and can be safely navigated at sea....
the ship itself is design to sustain heavy weather conditions...so that her crew are protected and can still live and work on it...
since at sea...the ship is the safest place to be....
but then...like all machine...it can die..it could fail and it has its own limit - life support..propulsion..power generation...navigation...even her own hull...it could just....click...padam.....a ship can broke in two when she was hit by massive storm surge and devastation waves....a ship could explode when some buggers lit a fire on a gas carrier....a ship could loose control and had its mercy to god when the power fails...a ship can also just disappear without a trace....
when things fails....people would and could die...
so to avoid death...or ok shall i say..to increase the chance of survival...mariners are trained to survive...to know the do`s and the dont`s in times of emergency...how to fight fire....to escape from a burning ship...how to keep ourselves warm when out at sea where death come not by drowning but by hypothermia.....and a lot more other stuffs....
and all these are not learned in one day....it kept on repeating-the drills..training..and new knowledge come by when time passes by and technology improves....so that it will become a part of us...just like how special forces operator who could switched himself from biasa2 to godlike killing spree mode like switching the light on and off.....
so dont looks down and say emergency drills are boring and unnecessary..killing sunday moods and all....it were meant that we wont forget and to kept us away from complacency....its a part of our daily lifestyles that keep us safe day by day....
-come to sea and see for yourself-
