BRIDGE GEAR TOUR - Navigation Bridge Tour from a Deck Officer's Point of View

Tour of the Navigation Bridge
The "Bridge" or "Navigation Bridge" is the navigation command area where a ship's master and navigating officers control the ship from. In general, the lookout duties and all manoeuvring can be achieved from here.
While the layout of each ship is slightly different, the Bridge is based around a general configuration of the Control Console, GMDSS station and Chart Table. The make, model and configuration of each component will also vary from ship to ship but each ship must carry the same required components.
In this video I show you the vast array of equipment found on the Navigation bridge as well as a general tour of a typical cargo ships navigation bridge.
As always, if you have any questions related to the video or to the maritime industry or merchant navy, drop a comment below and I will answer all of your questions.

Good one ! Which company is manning this Vessel?

[@juswa2380]

Can I ask what is the height of the Gyrocompass pedestal height in both starboard and portside wings Sir?

[@dimaf5642]

So beautiful capesize, but all things what you show I have on my general cargo 6000 dwt. )) please, in next time show accommodation spaces, forecastle, engine room. If you have enough knowledge show how to transmit messages by gmdss, operate radar, ecdis etc. Thanks for the video) By the way, where are you from?

[@theaussieseafarer2658]

Hi Dima. Glad you are enjoying my content. Yes you will find that the bridge of most cargo ships are remarkably similar. Since all cargo ships must conduct navigation in the same way, you would expect this to be the case. If you look thorugh my other videos, you will see through the engine room, forecastle and accomodation spaces. Again, these will resemble very closely what you are used to on general cargo ships. The main difference would be the size of each due to the available space on board. My intention is not to educate other seafarers, but rather to showcase life at sea to the world. If you are looking for tutorials and education, I recommend checking out the channel of my teacher, "Steering Mariners" for all your educational needs. As the name suggests, I am from Australia. Safe sailing my friend :)

[@jorinramos3944]

What is safe speed sir?

[@Pekrop7]

I eant to get promotes to 4th off... now OS with officer diploma, what do I do? ask master?

[@theaussieseafarer2658]

Absolutely. You should never be afraid to talk to the Captain. Show him all the respect that he deserves and ask away. It is important to follow order of command on a ship so you should first discuss with Bosun and Chief. Work hard, Show your interest. Always pays off. Safe sailing :)
