when seaferers failed in medical due to kidney stone, they always say " lagi kasi akong umiinom ng tubig sa barko" nice topic

[@ChiefMAKOi]

Hahaha!!! I agree! Some of them also say they grew bald because of the chemicals in the water.

[@MegaGeorge1948]

"I always drink the water on the ship". :-))

[@sparrowjuander807]

me too i drink water produce from the ship, and being in deck department it gives me different perspective on how it is done this gives me aditional knowlege, so more water pleassssssssse! hahahaha

[@associatedblacksheepandmisfits]

hey chief any problems with microparticles of plastic ?

[@Shinzon23]

They say what?

[@BilgeDweller]

Hoo boy. I can sure relate to what you said about the crew and bottled water. On the last boat that I worked on, this was the water path; we worked the Illinois River in the USA from Saint Louis to Chicago: fresh water tank was filled with city water meeting or exceeding EPA standards through 100 micron filters, from the tank, it passed through a 50 micron filter, a 5 micron filter, a UV sterilizer, then two 20 inch carbon filters in series, then a demineralizer before going out to the rest of the boat. The crew: "Uh, Uh! I'm not drinking THAT! BUT! Their ice cubes, made with that water. Their coffee, made with that water. Their meals, cooked with that water. Their iced tea, orange juice, Kool Aid, all made with that water. On the last overhaul, we had a bottle filler installed in the galley... Now, all of a sudden, they'll drink the water from that! The only difference was that the bottle filler had a very small inline carbon filter... People... :-)

[@brendonminchew3260]

Chief, these video’s have been professional-grade here lately. Very informative and entertaining.

[@ChiefMAKOi]

I try my best. Thanks!

[@charlesgantz5865]

Back in the 1970's, I was a reactor operator on the USS Enterprise. Being a nuclear carrier, we would produce so much water that we would pump excess overboard. We were never on water hours. Except once. Some guy accidentally let avgas into the fresh water tanks. It took several weeks to flush out the tanks, and in the meantime our water tasted like gas. Also, since the priorities for fresh water was for the reactor and for washing planes, and contaminated water couldn't be used for those, we went on water hours for those several weeks.

[@jenspeternielsen6215]

If I was still a ship's cook, I would be more sure of the ship's water supply than bottled water, because sometimes pollution in the plants such as bottled drinking water occurs. and the person in charge of the ship is easy to get hold of. In India, I have found that the bottled water I got, was made from seawater. Good wind, your retired food technoligist

[@mikeserrano734]

Thats why Filipino Merchant Marines seafarers are the best in the world. They make up 30% of the worlds seafarers. Keep it up Chief Engineer Makoi!

[@YehudaFabian]

I used to work for a water filtering company, it’s funny how the system basics are similar but in much smaller scale for residential use, ours was based on reverse osmosis but adding the minerals is the same, and some systems also have UV light, depending on the customers request. I would actually argue depending on the bottled water quality, there is a good chance the ships water is actually better than bottled water, 1. Very often bottle water it’s just tapwater filtered, from unknown Quality of both the water and the filter process. 2. Water leeches from the plastic bottle it’s sitting in for months before you actually consume it. 3. on the ships water you control the water and you know exactly what you’re getting (often bottle of water came out in lab tests to be not a good quality) Anyway Great channel I’ve been really enjoying it Thank you for all your hard work

[@taylortimmy1579]

Hello

[@ChiefMAKOi]

As a follow-up to the last episode, we will discuss if the fresh water produced by ships is safe for drinking. Enjoy!

Hi Chief - make a video on what happens if someone falls critically ill while onboard a ship? How they receive medication? In case of an emergency, how can they reach to a hospital?

[@xiaoka]

Please watch out for your mic scratching on your beard! Pretty hearable when listening with headphones.

[@geoffreyashcroft3774]

In the navy, we use a reverse osmosis plant on the frigates. We have system set to top up fw tanks when water produced reaches under 300 ppm. We also produce feed water somewhere under 3 ppm for our two steam generators and for our gas turbine water wash routines

[@jakelogan7542]

I was on a steam ship too and we used extra water from the evap for potable water. It was not enough for the 700+ people on board while underway, so we would also take on potable water when we pulled into ports. Once though when we took on potable water in Turkey it had some dead bugs in it. So they heavily chlorinated that water storage tank.

[@user-gu1hl2kx2k]

in iran we need 0ppm for our submarines

[@John_Be]

Good rule of thumb. If the chief engineer drinks the tap water you can too!

[@dmwm771]

I have to say, you are a great ambassador of your country. You truly let your country and industry shine!

Growing up,my father was chief engineer on oil tankers. I enjoy your channel,chief. Brings back memories.

[@RandeepSingh07]

Video quality improved both content as well as concept wise. Looking forward to the next video. You gave great insights about seafaring and seafarer lives. Following your channel from March-April 2020. Thank you. Stay safe and healthy during these testing times.

[@mahmoudsoliman2023]

Watching you from Egypt, suez city Keep going chief we like you

Hey Chief! Each day your videos get better and better! Salutes from Brazil

[@eyyjeff2318]

Yung C/E mong malupit 😎👌 very educational chief. Thanks.

[@Graygeezer]

Great video Chief! I’m not a mariner, but we do cruise frequently (at least under normal circumstances) and your videos provide enlightenment into ship operations most of which I assume are universal to just about every ship. I find your videos to be of top quality right up there with the best in broadcast media.

[@Peztilence]

Need more videos like this, Chief! Love the content!

[@febdiarylocang607]

very nice chief makoi. advanced study na to especially sa aux mach na subject. more power po chief

[@edwinegos3669]

Sir im looking forward for more interesting, complicated topics about all the machineries onboard ..

[@vincentdomingo5253]

Nice Video Chief!! Excellent quality and looking forward for more!

[@rkelsey3341]

We have a rainwater collection system here at the house, with similar filtering and UV sterilization equipment. It's great! Showering, drinking, washing clothes and dishes are all much better than "city water," Tell your crew they are fortunate to have such good water systems on board.

[@rufa4620]

Done watching,thank u chief!.. c yeah next episode:)

[@dejaydumaboc7866]

GOD BLESS you chief! Salamat for sharing your Knowledge. 🤗🤗

[@ktineenaje5728]

nice Chief. now i can save money next contract by not buying bottled water anymore☺️

[@christopherrasmussen8718]

Graphics are awesome Chief. 24 year USN. Always drank the water till they said you can’t. Did see cloudy water and poor taste.

[@OGDIS66]

Really enjoy your show because I have never been on a ship and find them most fascinating. I bet you are a great chief. You have such a great dedication to your country and your family. Thanks for giving your time to share your very interesting life.

Galley Crew here and we use water produce by ship specially when mixing it with Powdered Juice. So that they won't taste it differently.

[@skillmediatv.jjsantos]

Very interesting topic, Shout Out Chief Makoi

[@balajiaarya]

Excellent description

[@moriver3857]

Obviously other ships water systems may not be as tight as yours. Great topic and very well presented.

[@bonifacioaba2639]

Sometime ago, a friend of mine introduced me to a seaman working as a machinist in an international cargo vessel. He once told me about the drinking water in the ship which came from the sea. He had mentioned about desalination and reverse osmosis but so far, I have not seen such kind of device but only those in commercial mineral water refilling station until I have watched your channel. Come to think of it, it's more safer to drink than those tap water from the local water system in our area which was treated only with chlorine. Indeed, I'm contemplating to install a reverse osmosis in our faucet in which the water seems no longer clear. Very informative and detailed as well as worth viewing. More Power!

[@CarlosPestonit]

Very good explanation about the fresh water from the boats ... and I never saw anyone get sick from drinking water from the boat🚢👍

[@boybangastv3079]

[@Chris_at_Home]

As always, another great video. Here is a story for your shipmates that drink bottled water. A lab in Toronto sent technicians out and bought different brands of bottled water. They tested the bottles and compared it to their tap water and the tap water was the best.

[@cyriloraiz8068]

Thank you chief!!

thanks Chief, very interesting video

[@alanhill4334]

I remember when I was a deck apprentice (1963-66) cleaning out fresh water tanks and cement washing them. None of the sophisticated evaporation processes existed. I dread to think what we must have been drinking !? :)

[@Roalethiago]

Today I've learned something that a didn't know i wanted excellent video and explanation, thanks

[@MikeK2100]

Chief, you crack me up. The ship is using the exact same process as the bottled water companies use. I work in a print shop, and we got our share of goofs that drink bottled water, but paying attention to my area's water quality our water is better than bottled. Maybe I am to blame as they seen me change the filter and see the clay setiments and gross out. Not a problem, unless they flush out the hydrants, so I tell them to if it is brown, wait a half hour and flush the toilet and it will clear up. Modern cities even with their flaws opperate on seperate systems for water and sewage. They figure it out at the last turn of the century. Got stuck on canoeing trip in Canada and our troop cheaped out with using household bleach. My friend and I had Iodine tablets and turned a profit because people wanted a different change of bad. We also had tablets to neutralize the taste of iodine, but they never got to the point of buying them because we had one pack and wanted ten times the price. The easy way to wig people out about the water they drink is to tell them it is safe. With water it is not about the souce, but cross contamination which is vertually non existant for most of the world.

[@michaelschmale]

Good Morning Chief Makoi, thank you very much for explaing this process so well. If the crew would know how bad the Quality of some bottled table waters is, they wouldn´t drink it anymore.

[@pranaybamane6202]

Great learning episode

[@edwinegos3669]

Thank you so much sir for a well explained knowledgable videos sir , much respect . I hope and expect more to have a wide knowledge about onboard a ship and as a Marine Engineer. Im an Engine Cadet , last year i was onboard i have learn a lot also but as a first timer im still struggling until i found out you sir and your videos everythings so easy for you . Hope in future sir i can learn more about in your videos as a marine engineer .

Excellent video. I am a retired airline Captain. I have always liked technical things. When I started as an airline pilot, we all started as flight engineers. As part of our testing we had to draw the systems schematics by memory and explain how each component worked. This reminds me so much of the system knowledge we lived in.

Thank you 🙏 I’ve enjoyed your videos

[@justsaying8676]

Very informative... Im not a seafarer but your topics always makes me interested with how seafarer's life is... Maybe i really wanted to be one. Anyway... Congratulations.. im not saying that your previous videos are not good but everything improved and i like it. All videos are interesting and informative and that alone for me is a good thing to watch and not just a waste of time. Keep it up Chief Makoi, i know it's not that easy to do a video and everything about it but..... You're one of the best I've seen. Can't wait for more of your uploads. God bless Chief and also your family, be safe and keep safe.😉

well, i started out thinking i was going to get some work done. i have now watched about a dozen of your excellent, informative, and interesting videos

[@thoughtful_criticiser]

I used to live and work at a place that had its own water source and processing plant. The manager of the plant used to laugh at those who were buying bottled water. He used to post the weekly test reports for the drinking water and every week it was the same. 100% H20, no trace elements and no organisms. Unfortunately, the block I lived in was 20 years old and had steel pipework. Pure water is more corrosive than regular tap water. About 1am I discovered that the feed pipe to a urinal had corroded through when the valve snapped clean off the 1 ¾ inch pipe. Soaking me, as I stepped aside the fire pumps activated due to the pressure drop. In five minutes the whole block was flooded, it was an hour before the water was shut off at the plant because to save money they didn't install valves on each block as they were meant to be temporary housing for the builders.

[@peterwolfik5827]

Your videos are really very, very professional, keep it up. Me and my wife (which is Filipina) enjoy watching them a lot. Maybe the safest to drink on board a ship is San Miguel, but that is probably in short supply or even banned on board

[@fordwindsor351]

Step father of mine served in the U.S. Navy(1977-1986) and the drinking water on board was better than any sold bottled water sold in the states. No chemical or tablets were used, just the magic of the drinking water maker that was on board.

[@hulsurayrahul6669]

Osm 👌 explanation sir! Knowledgeable & easily understood . I have an suggestion to make a video on marine boiler and OWS.

[@teokiatuan2]

Chief, I serve as a musician on a cruise ship, and I just want to say you are the man. Since people always talk trash about the tap water from cruise ships and choose to drink bottled, I've always wondered if you have ever seen the results of tests carried on the purified water, just to see how exactly the water is different from bottled/boiled tap water. It does taste different, I wonder why.

[@bushman2512]

Old school, but our engineers cleaned the holding tanks with a sort of solvent. Water was terrible for 7 weeks. Canadian government ship, so drank beer instead, lol. Orange juice, grapefruit, anything but coffee or water, lol.
