Set the alarm for 1:02 a.m.

Web alarm clock for 1:02 a.m.

You are midway through unloading the catch from a night boat when a 1:02 am alarm has to pull you away from the crates and wet deck. Set it for the exact moment you need to stop, whether you are checking the ice, meeting the next vehicle, or recording the final tubs. That still leaves the rest of the work before 2:00 am visible in your plans without making the round hour your only marker.

While the catch is moving from boat to shore, you may switch to messages, weather information, or a tally sheet on your phone. The alarm page can stay in the background, but the browser may reduce its activity, so keep it readily available and check that sound is allowed. If you close the page or let the phone sleep, the alarm may not sound, and unloading the catch could continue past the moment when you meant to step away. A separate phone alarm is a sensible backup for a handover you cannot miss.

After leaving the catch for a few minutes at 1:02 am, keep the interruption brief and prepare for the sleep that remains afterward. Put dry clothes, keys, and anything needed at home in one place before returning to the boat. Avoid turning the pause into a long phone session under bright light; finishing the handover cleanly can make it easier to settle once the night’s work is done.
