Be sure to follow Ondrej's life as a deckhand on Instagram: instagram.com/superyachtdream/

[@jirivrla5770]

Is Ondra a Czech guy ?

[@BlaineWithCurls6]

As a 30 year old, whos never done any of this! Its definetly a dream to work on a superyacht, so im saving up for the courses

[@MrPostman3000]

Same here Mate!

[@ClipArtMC]

Can we have more videos of you underway please? Its so calming and enjoyable to watch!

[@johnpeel6601]

Very interesting Tristan. It is good to see that you involve members of AWOL's crew in your videos because a) it gives a better understanding in what they do, b) gives a chance to meet them and c) shows how complex each of the processes are and I am sure there are many in the management of a super yacht. You and the crew make it look so easy, but I guess it is a culmination of training, experience, and trust. Thank you, Tristan, great videos.

[@dm1927]

Glad to see you and crew again 👍

[@WeGucciMane]

I absolutely love your channel and what you do. I’m a 100 ton Captain here in Miami FL for over 7 years and I’m 24 years old. I run yacht charters here and it’s refreshing to see what it’s like on a mega yacht from your point of view keep up the good content! I showed my deckhand this video and he is forever grateful :)

[@wimschoenmakers5463]

Great job. Like to watch professional people! 👍

[@eaunan]

Great video. I love these videos showing not only what needs done, but also the sounds of the water, the communications, the teamwork - absolutely fantastic...

[@Utilero20]

Hope you and your crew are doing well and that you all still have a job. Sending positive vibes y’all’s way! 🙏

[@666antares1]

Andre the super handy man, great to see this side. thank you Andre. love the sound of the sea as you push the throttle. that thing shifts mind

[@rudideghelt]

I have been watching this channel for a long time, saw all the videos and never got bored. Thank you Tristan for this sharing and good luck to the captain and the crew of the Awol. 🙏🙏👍👍

[@garytollett8640]

Now thats a great vlog, so good to see her in motion, and another insight. thank you.

[@leestephens1]

That was a great video. Great to see things from Andre’s perspective!!

[@OlDuckOffroad]

I liked seeing the view astern showing the wake, would love to see more of AWOL underway. Cheers to the whole crew.

[@danielheathcote5625]

Love that you get the crew involved - nice touch!

[@mykelsalter7941]

Thank you Tristan and Ondrej. It was good to see another perspective of what the crew has to do as you leave port. Thank you for the insight

[@jamesmatthews291]

Rather like the new San Lorenzo that was on your port side. Nice lines.

[@bobuncle8704]

Nice to see the deck hand duties.

[@JohnMason-Hill]

That was really neat. More like that. Love it. Keep up the awesome vids. Been watching for a long time. Thank you!!

[@AlexZafer]

Great video. Super love these kinds of POV shots operating procedures a Super Yacht. More of this please.

[@littlearsehole75]

Good to see you afloat again, Captain Mortlock!

[@zedhead2864]

Very cool! Kind of eye opening to what Deck Hands responsibilities are on departure.

[@waynedrummond6583]

This is ABSOLUTELY the best AV you have uploaded. Creds to you

[@nicholasharding1002]

If I had my time over again.........what a wonderful experience for a youngster

[@FriendsAtParty]

Porto venere is such a nice place, we always went to this port

[@Skyward23Fpv]

I just wanted to say thank you for your videos im learning every day at the sea and your videos are fabulous I started working on boats as soon as I turned 18, I love this job! I work in a small charter and a part time skipper, I'm turning 23 on the end of this year, on Monday I'm going to arrange my yachtmaster A license so looking forward to work on a yacht some day you are a inspiration!

[@angelineswart2232]

Great crew. All about team work. My husband and son want to do deckhand courses and I would like to do the stewardess courses. Great content and so informative

[@alanpeijen6021]

Doing a great job there! Must be proud of your crew.

[@danelionheart5881]

I kind of can't wait would love to see the opening next. Great vlog.

[@markdarlington9555]

I really enjoyed that. Thankyou.

[@stephenwilson9497]

Great Video! Thanks. I enjoyed the Deckhand perspective.

[@gilboudreau3929]

awesome footage great captain thank you

[@rj6023]

I’ve been subscribed for 2 days now and addicted to your channel. Love the content

[@serkanas]

Hi from Turkey ! I really like these maneuvering videos. Thank you for sharing.

[@richmcleod01]

Great video of another m/y Awol work station. I’m learning so much about the different departments. If the only I was 25 years younger, I would love this life.

[@trentonpaul598]

Finally a good view of the speed and noise. Cheers Pimping your crew next place... well played.

[@stmiller8427]

Yeah! Yeah! Yeah! Andre! Very glad to meet you, finally! Interesting, informative and educational! So glad to have met you, Andre! Watching from Los Angeles, CA Steve Miller.

[@ondrejcizmar5649]

Thank you 🙏 you can also chceck @superyachtdream 😉 on IG

[@maxwellgilbert7558]

Can we please see A Day In The Life Of A Chief Stew!!! Would love to see more of what happens in the interior!

[@JCrook1028]

That's a bit harder as guests are not allowed to be filmed.

[@JedemPoKucama]

Watch Below Deck

[@Rob........811]

Wow, I found this so interesting

[@mannysthings6229]

Finally videos on the real-life crew great work!

[@Nicolas-vh8sx]

Muy bueno,muchas gracias por compartir Capitán. Saludos desde Argentina

[@cyrilfernandes5923]

Amazing work 😍

[@colinevison2006]

Great video as always Tris. Have a safe trip

[@gee530]

Very interesting to see! Thanks for sharing!

[@SylvieLaflamme]

Thank you for your videos. I learn A LOT about Captain's job and life onboard because of you. God bless you. You give me the feeling of security on the superyacht. :-)

[@jshrawder49]

Nicely done!!

[@lestki]

Tristan, whatever you do next I hope you will still vlog. You are very calming and pleasant to listen to. If you and Giv are going to travel I'm sure we would love to see vlogs of that.

[@cotedazure]

Very nice!

[@DanBetta]

Nice work!

[@bubaks2]

Loved the video.

[@kj3rd2657]

Good videos and I like to see more forward views from the bridge while under way, because it looks real good in my VR glasses & I want to use this as my screen saver thanks.

[@eintrachtlahntal4065]

Great insights, thank you for the vlog! Very impressive! Some questions: what is shown on the blac cubicle close to the spot, where you store the remote for the garage door? And: is the garage door somehow „fixed“ after closing - or are hydraulics enough? All the best and save trips!

[@mmanut]

Thoroughly enjoyed this video. Would like to see more of this content. Daily duties of different members of the crew. You have a GREAT JOB CAPTAIN 🧑‍✈️ ENJOY‼️👍👍⛴. Vinny 🇺🇸

[@InvestmentAngels]

Great vid again 👍 - always interesting to see how you deal with general duties on a big boat 😁

[@TheOUboy]

Very cool video. Very efficient crew. thanks for Sharing

[@bartbrandon1]

Great video. 15:36 - 15:55 really put it into perspective how well AWOL can move along, that was a pretty good wake she was kicking up.

[@rocketsciencemusic5398]

18/19 knots top speed if I'm not mistaken.

[@nickmuller6317]

very nice video, like the kind of raw footage!

[@ianhansford3160]

You do have to also consider AWOL is being sold, fair shout to the Captain for showcasing his crew......

[@pixievillanueva9522]

Captain thanks for the info i hope so someday to be a deckhand

[@lgriestra]

Very profesional and nice ride.

[@peterlazuric5641]

Good Vid

[@remraf72]

Good Afternoon ( Arizona time) Andre and Tristan. We absolutely love these type of videos ! Thanks also FOR NOT OVERLAYING any of this vid with music. It's so much better for those of us that have done yacht charters already to be able show vids exactly like this one to noobys that have never chartered before. We watched this just now with some friends that we are trying to convince to go back to Italy with us in 2022. They say they'll most likely go - hence , you two are epic salesmen ! Lol Cheers from Arizona

[@mickemike2148]

It appears that there is a very friendly atmosphere on board AWOL.

[@steadytube]

awesome Vid.

[@alanblasczyk1779]

Good video and viewpoint.

[@stevenzobel4517]

Always interesting Tristan

[@BigDThatsMe]

Great video

[@dirk2478]

Hi AWOL Crew I love you content so much Many thanks to you

[@SuperYachtCaptain]

😎👍

[@willliam6501]

More Andre! Lol. He's a hottie, and his attention to detail in his work is admirable.....I mean, those eyes!

[@rachelmarylani]

So cute

[@johngauntlett4915]

Also wanted to know when you do your morning security check and safety inspection does that include pulling in the chase boat for inspection?

[@donnakawana]

Tho I've worked on Tug boats an sailing ships job remains the same ! Team work good communication an knowledge of many jobs.. makes for efficient ship mates!! Great team Captain, thanks Andre enjoyed your view great job. ✌🏻💗😊❣️

[@jimmyquinn9639]

Another interesting video 👍👍👍👍👍👍🛥🛥🛥🛥🛥🛥

[@branddr4550]

That was awesome! Thank you guys for sharing with us. Is it possible to see a deckhands duties for when you are coming in for docking? :)

[@markatchison9974]

Got to be fit for that job. Well done physically pulling the chase boat whilst underway.

[@ondrejcizmar5649]

Thats why they got me as a deckhand 💪😁 @superyachtdream

[@sneakyninjassn9948]

Hey, Thats was good to see what the deckhands do, I think would be good to see the same idea with the camera for what the Stewardesses do or engineer :)

[@philkibble3912]

Excellent video again and good to see another aspect of getting underway. Just one question though, what is the chase boat used for? I'm sure this has been covered already but I can't find the answer.

[@jamestorrence9340]

Thanks for the Deckhand view, Capt. Mortlock. The momentarily splashy bow towards the end of the video made me wonder how seaworthy the AWOL is. There must be occasional surprise stormy weather in the Med. How well does the AWOL and the average 120 - 130 foot yacht handle?

[@robertjames8909]

Always a good video Tris, O yes did I spy a wedding ring 👍🥂

[@calumshaw7905]

A most enjoyable and informative vlog skipper. Andre has certainly filled the requisite shoes. Was Slav a touch put out today?

[@chrispennell8287]

Brilliant vlog as always. What speed does she cruise at look quite a nice rate of knots in the video. Also if you was to put the throttle all the way what would she max out at. From my little knowledge I know they burn a lot more fuel fo full throttle but not a lot of more knots for the the extra fuel burn.

[@emirtascioglu5280]

That fast camera movement made me seasick... Great video.

[@gregm.5960]

Hey just wanted to mention that on the tv show "Below deck-medetrainian " they had an episode where the Captain of that ship learned the hard way that you shouldn't have crew on the back/beach deck when you tow another boat. They had the tow rope wrap around a crew member's leg and drag him into the ocean and if it hadn't been for a quick thinking member of crew, cut the line, which saved the guys life and his leg from being amputated. I hope this information helps.

[@saltyoldseadog8257]

I mentioned this too, Capt Mortlock replied said procedure had been modified.

[@ondrejcizmar5649]

There was no risk of getting the line wrapped around the leg. The line is coiled very precisely and I was always standing behind the line. So no "below deck" scenario 😉 we changed the procedure to leave just last few meters of the line to avoid possible snapback. In case the line would fail and snaped back I will be already up on the deck. On the video I was holding the line until last meter to avoid getting it in to proppeler, but after discussion with captain, the procedure has changed and I leave the platform before line get into a tension. Hope all clear now. We learning every day 😉 thanks guys ✌️

[@saltyoldseadog8257]

@@ondrejcizmar5649 It was the line getting wrapped around your hand that worried me, it happened to me in 1986, and I went for a swim in the North Sea without a life jacket in December. I know it sounds unlikely to ever happen, but it did to me and I know of many incidents where people get caught in lines being paid out. Safest option would possibly be a winch, but probably not very aesthetically pleasing on a yacht. Anyway, thanks for replying, keep up the good work.

[@johngauntlett4915]

Tristan, how many feet of rope do you use to tow the chase boat and how long does it take to slow down coming into port to retrieve it without it hitting the back end of AWOL? Also wanted to know, when you do hit bad weather do you have to shorten the tow line?

[@stefrathe5060]

Hi there! Nice video as always.One question : never had issues with people trying to navigate between AWOL and the chaseboat? I mean with the lines, it could be dangerous.What kind of precautions are taken ? Thanks and keep up the good work!

[@carolo987]

Happy to be seeing Superyacht Captain vlogs again -- missed them. Is Mike below correct? I thought it was just new crew, not new boat as well. What's up?

[@kiweekeith]

Wonderful vidclip, fascinating to see All the Going-On's ..... From an earlier vidclip I could Clearly hear all the 'Japies' onboard. Coming from Cape Town, South Africa, it was not difficult to pick the accent..... Best wishes to You and The Team .... Tell the 'Japies' .... " Mooi Bly, Lekker werk, Groete vanaf Christchurch, NZ "... :-) :-) :-) ..... Cheers from New Zealand

[@marcelocheves]

Hello Captain, please do the same idea with the camera (departure and arrival) to engineering, chef, etc. It is very interesting all the jobs on those Yachts. Sorry for my English.

[@floodo1]

Is it normal to tow another boat using a single line? Would using a second line for backup be more or less safe? interesting vid thx

[@dlm733]

I would really like to understand the use a deployment of anchors when docking stern to

[@craigevans6156]

Are you displaying towing signals for the chase boat?

[@blaise2628]

Captain, what speed were you going at the end of the video? How many knots do you usually average?

[@geraldinepugh4093]

Can you tell us how you get water on the boat? do you refill at marinas? Do you have a purification system?

[@beckyumphrey2626]

Another great video. Is the yacht being sold?

[@giocodiruolo9187]

i love portovenere

[@178domen]

How fast are you going on the end of the video and whats the max speed of Avol ?

[@poolfool31021]

Did you get a new offer of captains gig when AWOL is sold?

[@suitandtie2251]

Great video. Below Deck usually glosses over most of these deckhand details. lol

[@gee530]

Yeah, mostly swabbing and shouting on the radio that the anchor is in the hole 😉

[@JCrook1028]

Below Deck is not real, you know that right?

[@lindadoerr7919]

Have you ever encountered a problem with the chase boat i.e. entanglement with something or sealife or...??? (I'm not a boat-person.) Just really enjoy your vlogs and have learned a lot. The chase boat just seems somehow "vulnerable" when in-tow"???

[@boduholm8463]

Do AWOL or Chasing AWOL display or both display a signal showing that Chasing AWOL is under tow?
