Yes it means to make something secure as in 'make fast the doors and shutters against the rain.' You might see the word Fasten in its place. As a side point, people can become 'fast friends.' meaning unbreakable friendship. A person can be 'fast asleep' meaning sleeping very deeply. All are derived from the same Middle English word faest.

When somebody tells you "Make it fast", it means that they are probably in a hurry, and that you should say what it is that you want to say in as little words as possbile.

in terms of being at sea.
to secure, to tie down, to make sure whatever the object it, it wont fall overboard due to wind wave or listing.
listing is the boat tilting to one side.
when addressing a person it means dont move.
stand fast. stop all action, proceed no further.
in cars, to speed up. i guess. hehe

To "make something fast" means to fasten it tightly so it won't come loose.
