About
This series is about the "adventures" and problems of the crew of the East German cargo ship "MS-Fichte" at sea. In the first part, the main engine had a piston jam during a storm at sea, so that the piston had to be removed. Mutual recriminations ensue between the captain, who ordered a higher speed, and the chief, who is against it out of concern for the high fuel consumption and is also said not to have bothered to maintain the engine...
