bosun's
Deck supervisor's possessive
Bosun's is the possessive form of bosun, a contraction of boatswain—the ship's officer responsible for equipment, rigging, and deck crew.
The possessive appears in nautical terms: a bosun's chair is a seat suspended from ropes for working aloft, and a bosun's pipe or whistle signals commands to the crew.
