How bridge looks like from inside day and night
A merchant ship’s bridge is the main control center of the ship, where the captain and officers can manage the navigation, communication, and operation of the vessel. It is usually located on top of the accommodation block, with an unrestricted view of the surroundings and access to the essential controls. The bridge contains various equipment, such as the steering wheel, rudder, thrusters, radar, GPS, ECDIS, GMDSS, VHF, AIS, echo sounder, and more. The bridge also has a safe for storing important documents and money, and bridge wings for maneuvering the ship in tight spaces. An officer of the watch and a lookout are always present on the bridge to ensure the safety of the ship and its crew
