Metamorfose Elbe dokbeurt sept 2009

[@TheSFCRetired]

There is something inherently satisfying in refurbishing a ship and extending its lifetime or in building a new one and watching it set sail for the first time. Been a long time since I worked in a shipyard, but it was some of the most satisfying work I've ever done.

[@aadkraaijenbrink]

Wat een enorm werk is dit geweest en die mensen verstaan prima hun vak, De Elbe ziet er weer als nieuw uit !!! Met dank aan alle sponsoren !

[@ioanniskoutsoukos5618]

Un vidéo exceptionnel montrant le travail minutieux fait pour la restauration d' ELBE. Félicitation aux shipyards à Rotterdam.

[@sreed8570]

Its amazing that with all the modern welding and bonding techniques they still use good old rivets at times.

[@multirichard007]

That’s because they were restoring it to its former build.

[@shovelwareslophole]

I would like to express my thanks to you, ___, My gratitude for your indisputably magnificent assistance is almost infinite. Your efforts have not gone unnoticed. I really like your contribution that you have in our society, you really make a difference and help others out, the world could always use more people like you. Gosh, what a polite and humble fellow. It is such a kind honour for someone as low as me to be in contact with someone of a level such as yours. I thank you once again my good friend. A world without you, would be a world I would not be able to live in, and I believe I share that opinion with most people. I can rest easy tonight knowing you helped. I appreciate you and everything you stand for and on behalf of everyone on planet earth, thanks.

Nice to see this tug on wich I sailed as engineer for abt. 9 months, thanks!

[@hansvangameren8880]

Wat een enthousiaste mensen en wat een sterk werk. Lang leve het Nederlandse vakmanschap.

[@sleepboothaven]

Elbe is built in 1958 (and came into service feb '59). In those days riveting was combined with welding. Hull most riveted and superstructure most welded.

[@MrCaptainDietrich]

ALL i can say to all i love tugboats boats and ships from any size love video 100 stars

[@dianasteijn]

Wat een geweldige klus en hard werken. Hulde mannen. Gaaf deze film en ook kippenvel momentje als je de Elbe dan aan ziet komen. Weliswaar gesleept maar toch.

[@p61guy]

Excellent video! Thank you for taking the time to share it. Professional work

[@MegaMouseSEC]

Interesting to see a boat that still is riveted and having some welding within it.

[@willemdezeeuw5918]

Mooi! Heb ervan genoten!

[@anyvdo1]

Wat heerlijk om te zien dat deze zeesleper weer vaart. Jamer dat André Slingerland het niet meer mee heeft mogen maken. Maar ik kan jullie verzekren dat hij super trots zou zijn om de mannen die dat voor elkaar hebben gekregen.

[@escope1959]

Really enjoyed this vid. Thank you for posting.

What a monumental amount of work performed by an outstanding group of professionals. Very impressive. Great video.

Vet gaaf!!!Zo worden ze niet meer gemaakt.Alle lof voor iedereen die er bij betrokken is en was.

[@dudasantiago45]

Very very nice! congratulations from Brazil!

[@franzotto448]

Einfach schön, das Video zeigt den Fleiß und das Können der Werftschschlosser von Brink Rotterdam. De video toont de schoonheid en kunde van de slotenmakers van de scheepswerf van Brink Rotterdam. ☺☺☺

[@sleepboothaven]

Yup, speed and echo sensors were mounted.

[@jorgemayorga6934]

Que bonito y meticuloso trabajo, recorrida general.

[@zirlianamatthew4598]

Beautiful ❤🎉

Bow thruster area has been cleaned and painted after welding.

Kudo's voor de muziek! :-)

[@amgstiernon1]

It would help to say something about the Tug; for us who do not know much about ships!

[@oaxelo1]

Really nice transformation. It's always good to see old boats fixed up. I found the single propeller and dual rudder setup interesting. Is that a common thing on tugs?

[@stuarthearn9890]

in europe yes on most river craft too

[@heyitsvos]

I cringed watching them power wash the barnacles without safety glasses. yikes.

[@sleepboothaven]

There is more than just one way of riveting. These rivets are placed countersunk. Not any ship is fitted with bold rivets on the outside of the hull, nor on deck. Two full heads is common in constructing bridges etc. Not for the hull of a ship.

[@hughhughlee3123]

Great work!

[@AVMamfortas]

Rosie the Riveter can weld, but prefers to FlashDance rather than work for a living.

[@Dustylaign]

looks great

[@whynot64928]

Video says it is blocked in nz due to copyright issues ? Why?

[@Johans60]

Flinke klus, ik vind die schepen uit de jaren 50... 60 zoveel mooier dan nu

[@spdwebdotnet]

I saw the retrofit of the bow thruster... but what was that downward facing port they added to the bottom?

[@sleepboothaven]

Steel get's a very thin corroded layer.

[@DutchHannibal]

Het was altijd al een magistraal schip.

[@spdwebdotnet]

Oh yeah, ultra sonic speed sensor, you're probably right. I think I saw it and the emergency plug in one of the shots.

[@frankcherry3810]

Surprised they didnt send the prop in for tuning.

[@jonesy94553]

Some of the rivets were cut too short. BOTH ends should have a rounded head on them. It's the head that holds the pieces together not the rivet squeezed in the hole. I'm surprised they didn't cut them longer.

[@arendvanderzwan868]

Geweldig

[@cidcampeador1952]

MUY BUENO .

[@willembrand5996]

Waarom kunnen jullie het nou nooit laten om van die irritante rot uniek onder zo’n mooi documentaire te zetten. Ik enorm de echte geluiden die er bij horen van het klinken, het snijden, de motoren enz. enz. Zonde.

Hmm not our plan. Maybe the Vangelis backgroundmusic gives problems?

De Elbe heeft afgelopen jaar een proefvaart gemaakt en gaat vanaf komende zomer met passagiers varen.

I thought hot riveting had gone down with the titanic. i guess not.

a modern ship will not rust so, see the way they paint Maersk ships, in those days ships were dying even before they hit the water

Wanneer gaat de elbe weer varen?

why where the anchors not re fitted

Any elevator I should think?

[@Itsaboutthewaterlife]

Scott: LOL

[@deksea]

anyone know why her own power was not used for the move?

[@sleepboothaven]

dave onan because the ship sank in 2004 after collision and the engineroom was still under repair in 2009. They started up in 2011 and went to sea for the first time in march 2013

[@deksea]

Thanks!

[@sleepboothaven]

This is not about New Zealand?

In the 5 years since you posted that illiteratet response, it still is the dumbest pig-dung ignorant response by a video uploader I have yet to see . . .

En nog een vraag: is dit een zusterschip van de Thames? Mijn vriend en studiegenoot is daar destijds op verongelukt, ik kan daar nergens iets over terug vinden.

[@sleepboothaven]

Nee, de Thames was kleiner. Zij vaart nog als jacht onder de naam Itasca

@@sleepboothaven merci. Maar: als jacht? Ze lag destijds in de Rode zee.

Why is she being towed to her moorings? That's not very seaman like. Let's see those new bow thrusters and that new prop working!

Christian Petersen the ship sunk 5 years before. She was not in service yet, that costed another 5 years.

LOL , , , maybe that is the reason they took our jobs

[@richardboudville5188]

And... the hole in the steel plate is drilled a little too big. It should be a slide fit.

[@klaassmit8241]

Waar zijn haar ankers gebleven na het dokken ??

[@sleepboothaven]

In dit geval bleven de ankers achter voor reparatie en zijn de kettingen vervangen. Omdat het schip nog niet direct in de vaart kwam kon dat. Later zijn in de thuishaven ankers en kettingen weer aan boord gebracht

[@klaassmit8241]

@@sleepboothaven ok, normaliter zou je nooit zonder ankers mogen varen. Ik kan me herinneren dat we een keer een onklaar anker hadden en niet weg mochten voordat het geklaard was.
