My husband worked at sea for 30 years. It was not until he retired that I could bring myself to watch videos like these, for we were both all too aware of the dangers out there. What brought me great comforted each time he went to sea was knowing that these rescue teams were out there, trained and ready to go at a moments notice, if they were needed. Thank you from myself, my husband, and our kids!

As a former US Coastguard ‘deckie’, I admire the layout of the”Abeille Bourbon”. For working towing hawsers in heavy seas that stern is well designed - open with high, clean rails to give as much safety to those at work. Beautiful boat. Good documentary and thank you.

@@thelthrythquezada8397 Great that you school arranged that field trip and I suppose good that you learned that one thing. USCG has plenty of billets on inland waters and navigation stations - all essential. I actually went to boot camp at age 26 -taking advantage just before cutoff. I’d done ‘high adventure’ work and fun before and as a free spirit I did not plan for a career in uniform. I was able to work above my pay grade at times and liked that. Open waters… no matter how calm, the first day out I was always queasy. But then got into it ; the more rough the better. Chow was good. As a Quaker, the Coast Guard appealed to me , adrenaline rush doing rescue with some real ‘I got your back’ moments. I miss that. Thanks for responding. Do well.

The sight of all of the names of the fishing vessels and their Crews which have disappeared or are known to have been sunk was terrible, worse still was that there was still plenty of space for more names... I had no idea that so many vessels simply disappeared without even a Mayday broadcast. The families, the wives in particular must really hate that their loved one's go back out... My heart went out to the widowed mother whose son also became a Fisherman.

My father is a Filipino seafarer. He just started another contract sailing away for 6 months. 5 yrs from now he will be retiring. I remember when he bought a TV from Japan and forgot to secure it with a rope the tv fell due to the strong waves. He brought it home and found out that the tv was malfunctioning. One of the many stories my dad is telling us.
