I used t go home nd call everything nautical terms and sounded crazy....That is why I often do not use all nautical terms when I talk in my videos so I hope yu understand. I AM very very familiar though as I have sailed for a good time. I just find it hard to turn on and off the ways of talking so I try to keep it as I do when home.....

I never would’ve guessed that a single crew member on a container ship would get such nice, spacious accommodations. I would expect a bare bones, narrow room with a double bunk and community showers. I guess cruise ships are fighting for any extra space possible for a paying passenger. Nice setup.

That room is a mansion compared with the cruise ship crew rooms.

Love the Red Dwarf DVD’s. Loved that show! Watched it all the time.

Men just need a game system, chair, and TV and we're good lol. This looks like every dorm/apartment I've lived in since I turned 18.

Cool video. I have never seen the inside of a ship's cabin before and didn't expect it to look like a regular apartment.

Ah, I see you have Red Dwarf DVDs. Good man.

I love your channel man, no hype, no clickbaity thumbnails, just showing us something most of us will never get a chance to see.

Play videogames alone in a Ship cabin is Priceless. A great experience for Someone who is a Gamer and Seafarer!

This is better than most motel rooms and it's probably twice as clean.

I was at sea for 18 years and never had cabin as nice as yours.

Love how you have all of Red Dwarf stashed away in your personal drawer, pretty fitting.

That room looks more comfortable,spacious, and more accommodating that an expensive cruise liner room. Way awesome!!!!

Good choice of DVD's. Red Dwarf. As a Brit I totally approve.

Hello I’m one of the lashing crew of the port of Antwerp MPET , I have worked a lot on your ship. I have subscribed to your channel👍🏻

My late grandfather was employed by Mærsk. His job was to choose all the art that goes on the walls inside the ships and on oil rigs... So he probably chose the art for your walls.

RED DWARF!!!! YES!! The perfect series for being stuck on a massive ship.

Lucky you on a Danish ship. I worked on a small Swedish oil tanker in the 1960ties in east Asia Indonesia no air-conditioning but my cabin had 2 portholes that could be kept open. I loved it!

There is something so comforting on a ship with your own cabin. Lottsa good nights sleep there I suppose.

KZfaq recommendations, you never let me down.

I was a cargo ship passenger many years ago. I have vivid memories of my picture window looking out on the backs of containers.

I actually load and unload these container ships, I always feel sorry for the crew sleeping or chilling out when we are working close to the bridge, as it's just bang bang bang with the containers,

Red Dwarf, great show!

Wow !! Definitely more space than I thought you would have. I guess it's important to keep you guys as comfortable as possible. My son and I recently built a large Lego version of one of your ships.........without living quarters, lol. Thanks for the tour.

Wow that’s an awesome room wouldn’t expect such a spacious place to live on a ship! Thanks for showing

This guy is senior management on this ship . There’s no way on Earth that the ordinary crew have single occupancy cabins with en-suite shower / toilet. I’ve been offshore for 38 years and this is is NOT the norm .

Wow. That living space is so super clean. My efficiency apartment is a little bigger, but very old and run down. But, hey, wherever you lay down and rest is Home! ✝️

Thank you for posting! I am much too old now but have long wondered what life in the modern merchant marine might be like. My great-great was a mariner as were two of my uncles. Sadly the latter two were lost during WWII.

Hello Good video to show for those who never got onboard. I'm a Ship Chandler from SSZ Brazil. My company has contract with Maersk. We supply most vessels here in SSZ port. Have a safe sailing. All the best!

No complaints it's decent

Was very glad to see you had those windows. Actually, very nice set up. thanks for sharing.

My dad always cherished his time as a merchant marine. Treated like kings. He's in a nyt best seller called Super Ships. His stories were legendary.

Wow! When I was in the U.S. Navy, I had a bunk and a locker. That was it! If I had more time i might think about a year or two in the Merchant Fleet.

Excellent video again Jeff. Thanks for your time filming, editing and showing us what it's like on a job that not many people would get to see. You have a lot more space than I thought you would have which is great to see when you're out at sea for long periods of time. Thanks again

Good sized cabin. I was a trainee deckhand on the fist ship to go between the Falklands and South America after the war (this was '89) and my cabin was half that for 2 of us. My abiding memory was of one VERY rough crossing from Stanley to Punta Arenas in Chile. The weather was so bad i put a load of life jackets under the outer edge of mt mattress to raise it up and create a "V" for me to sleep in against the bulkhead. Had to sleep feet forward as the ship came down some of the waves pretty vertically and it was easier hitting the forward bulkhead with your feet and flexing at the knee rather than landing on your head! (Learned that the hard way!) 2 day crossing took 6 days and the novelty of the rough weather wore off pretty quick.

That room looks great. That's plenty of room. Much bigger than I thought it would be.

Don't know why this was in my recommended but I'm very pleased. Thanks for sharing!

Not bad at all. Quite a good standard. We had similar cabins in P & O Bulk Shipping back in the 70s. Good sized bed, shower and toilet, good furniture but no tv or fridge. We only had one multi-standard tv in the wardroom. When I got to 2nd Engineer, my cabin had a bath & shower, a fridge, and a short wave radio so I could listen to BBC World Service (It was crap then and still is now) but I usually took my own FM radio so I could receive the C & W and easy listening stations on the USA east coast (like WHIM at Providence, RI and WLIF at Baltimore, MD). At that time, computers were the size of large refrigerators, so no laptops, but I did have a typewriter the size of a printing press! On one occasion during that time, a few of us were invited aboard a vessel in the Persian Gulf that was crewed by a ship management company (might have been D******m, but can't remember for sure) and it was awful- dirty, cramped and no A/C. I certainly hope things improved for those guys.

I like your lil' cabin, lol. For me I think you have the perfect sized cabin. Plenty of storage and a private head (bathroom for your land lubbers, lol)

I think it's great that you have your own space I'd imagine it helps make life more livable

Jeff, what a spacious layout. It's perfect! Thank you for showing this.

Red Dwarf collection! Nice! Also it's really neat and quite roomy compared to what I thought and you've got video games, that's awesome.

That's luxury try out the berthing on an aircraft carrier! Small to say the least. Everything stuffed into your rack!

Thanks, I used to work for Mærsk at Giralda Farms, NJ. I did data management for North America. Lots of familiarity with the overall operation, but I never had any way to tie the raw numbers to actual people. This is really interesting and helpful.

Good room. Great to see Red Dwarf videos in the locker. Hours of hilarious entertainment there.

Impressive ! i'd never guess you would have such a nice room - thanks for sharing !

I am looking directly at the red dwarf dvds that you have in your cabinet you have good taste

That’s actually pretty sweet. Looks cozy.

“this is a couch you can sit on....” lol-thanks buddy for the explanation. That one puzzled me. Nice video.

It's better than the last cabin I had on a cruise ship.

I finished a six month deployment with another three months thrown on a week after we got back (thanks Navy). After that, seeing a room like the one in this video makes me think of grand halls. It's like comparing van life to mansion life. Now that I think about it, that room is almost as big as the barracks room I lived in while at home port (which I had to share).

Wow, those are some luxury accommodations! After high school, 1968, I sailed as a deck hand on a Great Lakes ore Carrier that was Built-in 1900. We had bare steel bunks, 6 to a Room. Nothing but bare steel walls of which one was part of the anchor chain storage bin. You better hope to hell they didn't drop anchor while you were sleeping. Compared to your digs it was like being in a jail cell.

That is a mansion, my locker in the navy was smaller than his small one, for everything I had.

This is a really great video thank you, as a college student I've told myself that if I really hate my job once I graduate then I'll try and find my way onto a cargo ship. It seems like you have more room than I do in a dorm although you don't share it with another human being and all their stuff. I always wondered what sorts of accommodations cargo ships had for the crew.

I was in the Navy... your shower is more space than I had for my rack and locker space combined. Only the Captain and XO had a cabin that big. Other officers would bunk 2 or 4 in a cabin that size. Senior enlisted would probably go 6-9, and regular enlisted like me would fit 9-12 in a room that size. I do not miss the joys of being an enlisted man on a military ship.

The childrens drawings above the bed, I´ve been 25 years in the business and we all have them. Exactly there, above the bed.

You got plenty of room there and it looks cozy too. It is way bigger than what I had back on the cruise ferry I was working on. I guess we did have 12 square meters but most of the cabin was used for storage as we were working 10.5 hour shifts for two weeks. I was lucky to have my own cabin as I had some odd hours which did not match with the others, those working on restaurants and hotel side of the business shared the cabin with other person of same sex and as the cabins were narrow, it was hard to imagine the scene when two persons got ready to the same shift with uniforms and stiff. But it worked for me pretty good, except for Wednesdays a as right across the corridor we had a crew disco and there were a lot of noices and the sound killing was poor. This was a problem during the winter too as the ship had to break ice but something you got used to in a couple of nights. Here is a link to the photo of the ship where I was working in the color scheme from my era. www.simplonpc.co.uk/SiljaLine/Silvia_Regina07.jpg

Thanks 😊 that was interesting to see for us who have never worked at Sea on a ship.

Smegnhell...Red Dwarf!!! Nice room. Thanks for showing us.

Wow. That's actually a good room for a ship. Good amount of space. Very nice.

A nice room and you deserve it! It's hard work on a big ship!

Ah, the pre-Covid world. I miss it. Huge cabin compared to an inside cabin on cruise ships.

So glad I stumbled upon this. I always wondered what a crew room would look like on a ship of this size. Very cool, stay safe out there!

I like that little floor space, for me it's space enough for body weight exercises, a bit of yoga and stretching. Nice room!

Wow, that is 1000 times nicer than the rooms we where issued in Afghanistan. I could live in that room indefinitely and never feel cramped. After 3 1/2 years in Afghanistan I can say a private bathroom or Head as sea farers call it is priceless. You have enough space to fit in a microwave and a cooktop and would be able to cook your own meals.

Cosy enough by the looks,everything you need pretty much. Thanks for Sharing.

Someone should do a series. This is on a container ship. Staterooms are so different on all the other types of vessels. Container ships typically have larger and nicer accommodations. Over 30 years I worked on so many different types. My favorite was on the Great Lakes, the old Lake Boats were so nice.

I love the comments from the navy guys. I did an enlistment on a destroyer, now I work as an engineer on ships. Civilian side realizes(most of the time) you have to keep your crew comfortable in order to perform, the navy could care less if you hot rack with the entire crew.

Looks like a small but well-kept hotel room, apart from the obviously different window style.

I have no idea how I ended up here... but I enjoyed the video!

Very comfortable looking cabin. I was a Radio Officer on British Deepsea Trawlers on Icelandic trips which had my cabin directly next to the radio room behind the bridge. My cabin was basic with a bunk and storage space but was probably half the size of your cabin but was comfortable enough for my needs aboard. I had a porthole in my cabin which used to leak like a sieve in very rough weather which was most of the time in winter months off Iceland. Apart from the Skipper who had his own cabin and heads etc all the other ships officers had their own cabin but had to share the showers, sinks and heads. This was back in the late 1960's early 1970's. Time at sea was approximately 21 days with 3 days shore leave. Trawlers today are much better and larger and stay at sea a lot longer up to six months at a time on freezer ships before returning to port.

At least your bed is pointed the correct way! The wonderful engineers that designed our ships, thought it would be a great idea to put the beds athwartship! You think it's hard sleeping when the weather is rough, try doing it when your laying athwartship! I like how they have your bunk in your room, at least then it's easy to put something under the mattress and wedge yourself up next to the bulkhead, no can do with our beds, they are in the middle of the stateroom with the head of the bed up next to the bulkhead. Whoever designed our ships, obviously has never slept on one during high seas! Fair Winds and Following Seas my friend. 😁

Surface ships...on the sub an area that size would house 10 men and the galley 😁

That’s huge. Bigger than my dorm in college.

That cabin is way nicer than any of the "staterooms" I've paid good money for on cruise ships.

Wow, that is spacious! I'd love to live in something that size right now! Looks like you got it made. 🙂👍

Thanks for the inside look!

Thanx for the tour and the example of shipboard living.👍

Excellent. Thanks. Very good intro to the room, I get the sense of the size and the feel of it. Lot better than some hotel rooms, nice that you have windows.

Wow, that's huge from what I expected for a container ship. Thank you for sharing!

That looks really nice..comfy.. I certainly wouldn’t complain. 😀

This is actually really nice.

I spent 6 years in the Navy I loved being at sea just was ready to get out of the military. I wish I would of known how to go about becoming a merchant seaman. Great videos I enjoy watching!

Thank you for sharing this video. I’ve always wondered what container ship quarters looked like. It looks VERY nice! Much better than what I had when I served in the US Navy. Again, thank you.

Red Dwarf, great guy !!

Smeg! He's a Red Dwarf fan!!

This looks like WAY more space than I envisioned... Crazy!

Red Dwarf.......... i see you are a man of culture as well. thanks for the tour and insight!!

RED DWARF!!! Love that show

Red Dwarf DVD's in the cabinet. I used to have the collection too.

Cool video, thanks for sharing. It's nice to see better condition than what was expected.

Hot damn! That room is bigger than most Tokyo apartments! I know, I just saw a video of one! I also noticed you have a ton of storage wow! Funny thing, until recently, I always thought CRUISE ships looked just like this, but smaller cabins. I was very surprised to see cruise ships are floating hotels! Did not know that was even possible.. Most of my life my dad was on military ships and so my experience seeing a ship was always a military or mercy ship, which look like this only very cramped. This must be a luxury cargo ship..

I thought about going commercial when I got out of the Navy, always wondered what it would have been like.

Thank you for visiting your explanation very good your room also. I appreciate. 🇫🇷🗼🇺🇸⚓🎼🎻

Very comfortable accommodations. Thanx for the tour!

I enjoy that you are doing this. We could have never seen one of these ships on board, otherwise. :)

Nicer than the captain's room on a navy ship.

Wow I used to work for P&O containers, and our cabins in the late 80s early 90s were better than this, and my bed was twice the size,, a lovely way to live life, I miss the days badly, but memories never fade

Nice cabin, it’s much bigger than what I’d thought it be, cool video, thanks for sharing.

That's a lovely, spacious apartment for one. I would find that space, facilities and comfortable lounging, studying and sleeping layout to be 100% acceptable. Clearly, the Company respects and values their Crew Members and is more than happy to invest in their wellbeing when off duty. There is probably a communal Crew lounge and games room, a gymnasium, library and swimming area aboard too. That would be in addition to the Crew restaurant/dining area. Seafarers from even a few years ago would be green with envy at the Crew Cabins and on board facilities available today!
