Thanks for posting. Until I stumbled upon a book about it, I had no idea that, in 1917, a ship full of explosives collided in Halifax harbor with another ship. The resulting explosion resulted in almost 1,800 deaths and over 9,000 injured. It's worth some study and a tribute to the people who saw to the dead and injured and rebuilt the city. It's worth a read.

I found your channel by accident and I'm enjoying it. My dad was a captain for Isthmian/States Marine Lines but worked ashore since World War II as the terminal manager in Brooklyn. They were mostly piece cargo ships C3's or C4's like the one you see in he movie 'On the Waterfront'. I would go to the pier as a kid with my dad and later worked as a longshoreman during my breaks and vacations in college. My dad knew Paul Hall and introduced me to him at the 4th Ave Brooklyn SIU hiring hall. With my seaman's papers in hand I was able to get on a Sealand ship (SS Boston) from Port Newark to Baltimore, Rotterdam, Bremen, Grangemouth, Felixstowe and back to Port Newark during the summer prior to my last year in college in 1969. I was in the deck department as an Ordinary doing a 12-4 watch and got on the job training. It was a real adventure I will always remember. There's a tribute web site to Isthmian Lines and one for States Marine Lines that I'm involved with, look them up. Both companies are long gone. Ever consider signing on to a RoRo? Do they even have Lash ships any more?

Keep those great videos coming and was pleased to come across them on KZbin I have more to see on your channel, good sailing and have a great safe voyage. Cheers from Tasmania.😀

How could we NOT like tagging along on your adventures? Interesting stuff. It`s going to be nice to get back into the watch cycle when you can finally get some rest. Looking forward to your next video, as always. I remember some years ago, in the late 1980s, when I was so eager to start working on cruise ships, that I drove from California`s Central Valley to San Francisco just to see if there were any cruise ships in port. Well, there weren`t and aren`t often, but I did get close to some cargo ships, and man, there is an aura about them, rust and all. Just to be near them was thrilling beyond belief, and that magic stayed with me for months.

The few meals after getting stores are always the best. Fresh everything. Even in the Navy on an aircraft carrier, stores were brought down into the coolers one box at a time using a chain of people handling it. I've been on many of those parties. We had plenty of bomb elevators etc.... but no food elevators.
