Definitions

1. loading stores is a party action, not an all hands evolution, being done usually at times in port when a lot of crew is otherwise busy or missing ashore. The party is warned by the Purser beforehand. It includes full stowage of all stores brought aboard and any restorage of stores shifted because of that or because stores need shifting in general. The party usually has two parties, port and starboard watches, and is small. (Ship's Org Bk.)
