Hi guys

Off topic from electrickery and need a little guidance ,to the forum mods this isn't so much a question more of a plee for help ;)

There,s far more brains on this forum than i could ever wish to meet so your time is very much appreciated

Ok i work for a local firm running fast launch services ie pilot boats , stores medivacs , tug boats and so on , we run 3 crews of 2 persons 24 7 / 365

so at the moment were rotating on 7 days 12 hour shifts into 7 nights 12 hour shifts into 7 days off repeat

This morning we find out that one of our guys who retires in feb this year will not be getting replaced due to financial gain of the company and also the shipping world are struggling /cutting back so work is pretty lean

we have all been racking our brains on how to cover these hours with 5 guys in a sensible manner but could do with some pointers on the situation as this isn,t our field ,
Any help /previous experience with this would be most most welcome
again thanks for your time people

any reply to this is warmly received

Regards
Alfie
