An alert to inform interested parties about an incident in which a general cargo vessel was preparing to get underway and head to sea after loading cargo in a port on a river.
The pilot boarded the vessel and went to the bridge where the master-pilot exchange began. The vessel and master had been in and out of this port several times, so this was viewed as a routine transit. Still, the master and pilot discussed the status of the main engine, steering, and control systems all of which were operating in excellent condition.
