Wish I thought about this as a career choice before now…. Fear I’m too old to start now

@@Glostahdude I'm gonna tell you I have classmates in my class for Marine Engineering, one Is 47 the other is 52. So it's not too late. I am 7 years out of highschool

@@TheRathead80 oh really? I’ll be 47 in August….. maybe it isn’t too late!

I'm never going to work on a ship either. I just enjoy watching videos without being bombarded by politics. If this were a documentary on American TV, even a documentary about resupplying ships, somehow they would squeeze in political propaganda. It would be an hour long with 50 minutes talking about climate change, trans rights, and diversity in the shipping industry. It is so nice to just relax and be entertained and not think about politics.

@@BrettonFerguson Ha, ha. You are so right!

I couldn´t agree more!

Well, as much as 99% survival rate could be considered "deadly".

@@solonyetski 1% fatality rate doesn't sound too bad unless it's incredibly contagious. People like to compare covid to the common cold or flu, but the flu has like a 0.022% fatality rate, which means covid is 50 times more likely to kill you. And several hundred times more likely to leave long lasting to permanent damage to your body, judging by statistics.

@@Sinyao that point is moot because there are already cures and simple preventions for it. It’s mostly, in general, the fault of the governments and the shmucks who follow their every command that they refuse to take the necessary actions and end up dying from it. Besides, people die all the time and you don’t give an f about it, but since the media tells you to be afraid of this, now every death matters and self-flagellation must be performed by everyone. Also, the statistics aren’t exactly accounting for the natural selection of how virusesmutate to become more contagious but less deadly. I will not be convinced on technicalities in a vaccuum.

I appreciate that

Ain’t Buoyancy a wonderful thing. In some cases. The ship has to pump in water into ballast tanks to balance the ship’s weight.

"Just" is a right word for that, for ship that big 100 tons of MGO is such a small amount, enough for just 3-4 days (not really enough for full 4 days), which is almost negligible considering how long ship travels through sea without refueling.

700 tons two types of fuel

100 tons really isn't that much weight

We cook "sinigang" with it. I also like it smoked.

@@ChiefMAKOi I tasted sinigang with markerel before, sweet and sour soup, same as what we have in Malaysia..we call it singgang

@@mohd.hafiez3619 wow almost same name with sinigang

@@ChiefMAKOi I smoke makrels myself. I put salt on them and put them away for a day in the fridge. Next day I wash off the salt and hang them to dry in the wind. When dry I smoke them with olivewood. ( i live in Spain with lots of olive trees) Delicious!! I love cold smoked fish too, but I can do that in winter only when outside temperature is low enough. Good appetite!

Excellent video, 24 on 24 off . Life as sailor. Always on call

You're right on the money. I can see myself doing that. 😄

Glad to hear it!

Only 8 tons of lube oil. He also said "only 100 tons of light oil"

Imagine if you had to go to AutoZone and buy a few thousand quarts of oil.

Yeah, I think that would max out my credit card.

Around 2,700 gallons of oil

Thanks for watching!
