The Bridge
HMY Britannia was the only ship in the Royal Navy always commanded by a Flag Officer.
Generally, it would have been a Rear Admiral, but in the case of the last Captain, a changed ensued and the vessel was commanded by Commodore, Anthony Morrow.
When Britannia was sailing the oceans, the Officer of the Watch was in charge, ably assisted by The Lookout and Signalman.
The Helmsman was on the deck below, in contact with the bridge by a metal voice pipe.
The Charthouse was to the rear of the bridge, where voyages were planned and plotted.
