I've used an anchor like that on a small boat, but I'm glad I wasn't on the bridge of that ship. Full marks to the amazing skill of that crew.

I saw this video by chance. I was RO for three trips to Canada and the Lakes in 1964 and ironically left the ship 60yrs ago today. Andy Dougall signed my discharge. Great memories of the ship and how lively she was!!

the sinking of PAMIR is one of the biggest catastrophies of after the war Germany. I remember the sad feelings very well, beeing a boy of 15 years then. It's perhaps worth to know that there are still two sisterships can be visited in Germany. 1.) PASSAT in the city of Travemünde at the baltic coast. 2.) PEKING after a complete restauration recently in the city of Hamburg. PEKING is now luckily home at her home- town, beeing abroad at various stations in the world.

PASSAT and PEKING are also Cape Horners and rounded the Horn many times. They belong to the famous flying P - liners

Amazing job! Reminds me of when i was living/working on the Isla of Skye, (Scotland, uk) when the ferry was still running. The conditions that they sailed in were incredible! They'd point the boat diagonally from it's destination, and let the wind blow it to the ferry port! It never failed to amaze me how accurate they were. I have great respect for these guys and gals that work on these ferries, in all weathers.

Been there (literarily) done that with my 31ft sailboat... Problem is after parking like that with the help of the wind is that you are pinned to the dock and can not get moving again. I had to do it to fill fuel as I had to go out to sea to save the boat from the storm as there was no safe place to stay in the harbor (all the safe sports was taken). After struggling for a long while to get out from the dock I finally made it and as I was going out at the open sea I meat the rescue boat coming in, they must have been thinking I was crazy going out at sea in that wind lol. When I finally was out on the open ocean it was not that bad and I had a 8 hour ride against wind and waves running on engine only straight against the wind before I was into my home harbor where it was safe.

When ship is listing so hard that you can scoop water from the sea with your hand to wash sweat away from your face while wrestling on bridge, then its challenging..
