On Bookers and Geest I did cargo watches (nice little earner) usually fine goods in No.1 hold.
Whilst up the Gulf on a Bank boat (Fish class) I had arranged for telex messages to be received by a sister ship still at anchor, then re-transmit them blind to me. I had managed to get them to seal the main transmitter power supply only, telling them I needed the radio room for office work. The guards nearly had a dicky fit when they heard the telex one day! but again I blagged it once they had checked the transmitter seal.
