Who is in charge of the tag-out log while underway?

AO EOOW (Engineering Officer of the Watch) OOD Commanding Officer

Correct Answer:

EOOW (Engineering Officer of the Watch)

Explanation:

During underway, tag-out procedures are managed by the Engineering Officer of the Watch. The EOOW is responsible for the engineering plant and, specifically, for maintaining the tag-out log, ensuring all tag-outs are current, properly authorized, and not bypassed while the ship is moving. The Officer of the Deck handles surface watch and deck operations, but the tag-out log falls under engineering supervision. The Commanding Officer has overall authority, but day-to-day tag-out control is the EOOW’s duty. The Auxiliary Officer isn’t the designated custodian for the tag-out log.
