[edit] Split
This page and Able Seaman (rank) were split from Able Seaman. Haus42 15:13, 19 March 2007 (UTC)
Perhaps this should not be split between two equal articles. There is some overlap in the terms usage, at least historically. Should the main article be AB with a link to the Naval rating. KAM 14:27, 29 March 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Able Seafarer
It seems the IMO has a new international definition for a fully qualified deck rating. It has changed AB from Able Seaman (or Able Bodied Seaman) to "Able Seafarer Deck" KAM 14:27, 29 March 2007 (UTC)
