SEA RESCUE - Tough Wind & Waves | Full Documentary

The German Society for the Rescue of Shipwrecked People (DGzRS) is on duty all year round in all weather conditions. The sea rescuers set off for the North and Baltic Seas from 54 stations. Many owe them help and sometimes even life. The missions can also be dangerous for the helpers themselves - hurricane gusts and huge waves are sometimes daily business for the crews. The report accompanies the crew of a rescue cruiser at the mouth of the Elbe.

I was a merchant seaman for 13 years. It was nice knowing that these brave men would be there for me if needed.

[@mattwatson]

I was a sea for 25 years, it was nice knowing I could sink you whenever I was mad. I primarily served as the Baltic sea before being promoted to the Atlantic, where I killed thousands of sailors. Eventually I got old so was put into semi-retirement as the red sea, which was calm and warm.

[@donnakawana]

As a sailor I'm grateful for what these men an women do to keep us safe... It's beyond hard.. it's more than dangerous... I honor everyone who works to rescue Mariner's in parel at sea...

[@derbacksteinbacker4942]

When I was young my father had a boat and we used to watch the guys from the Rescue cruiser Berlin run out. You could always hear that dull roaring of these engines when they were about to leave and when they left the port they floored the gas on all 3 engines, man I will never forget this sound the machines made it was just beautiful! You could still hear them minutes after they left. Once there was a yacht burning near our boat in the port and these guys saw the smoke, launched their small boat, then they drove to that burning yacht, cut the lines, pulled it out of the port where the Berlin was already waiting and they extinguished the fire. All that in 15min, without them some of the yachts next to that burning one would most likely also catched fire. I think there also a video on KZbin shot from a camera team that was on the Berlin coincidencenaly that day

[@Vladoz11]

[@donnakawana]

I've rarely seen a dirty engine room.. if it's dirty how will you know you have a leak?? You can get in big trouble if you let oil or diesel get in your bilge then out in the sea .. that's just irresponsible. Most ppl who own boats take care of the vessel... Don't you take care of your homes furnace an such?? You keep it clean main tain it?! Anywhoo wish you the best now an forever.... ✌🏼💗😊❣️

[@christiankastorf1427]

The place where sailors learn about fighting and fires and leaks on board ships belongs to the German Navy. An ex-frigate , F 220 with the name "Köln" in active duty from 1957 till 1982, lies in the shallow harbour basin of Neustadt at the Bay of Lübeck where it cannot sink. The ship can catch fire here and there and parts of the hull are altered in such a way that "leaks" occur by drawing shutters.

[@donnakawana]

It's amazing the learning vessels I worked an lived on water my whole life an ....That's an amazing vessel you described... Wow so very cool....

[@SEPK09]

Can never understand how little human life means to people who work in the them, why are they not the highest paid people on the planet!!!!!!!!!

[@mattwatson]

It's a simple explanation why. Supply and demand. The supply of workers willing and able to do that job is larger than the demand, so the workers have no leverage to demand higher wages. Employers will always have a large pool to hire from and people prepared to work for less money. This is also why professions like doctors get paid high wages, there are only a small amount of people with the intelligence and qualifications to be doctors, thus they can demand high wages.

[@christiankastorf1427]

To my knowledge the engine cooling water circulates through the double skin. That means the engine does not rely on outboard cooling water intakes that may get clogged because of two dangerous conditions: mud that is stirred up in stormy weather from the seabed in those shallow waters near the German coast and crushed ice in winter. Those boats go through.

[@christiankastorf1427]

@@charonstyxferryman I know what keel coolers or keel condensers ( for steam engines/turbines) are. But they are tubes that run along the outer skin of a boat. Those tubes could get damaged in case of grounding. That risk is avoided by letting the water circulate in the double hull.

[@donnakawana]

All these comments are amazing... I've heard talk of keel cooled vessels but didn't work on any... I mainly worked on Tug boats an a 92 ft. Schooner an various sail boats.. yacht's... Cooking an crew... Just lost my home my sailboat to fire at the dock. 8t happened at night we were saved it our vessel tho... We are good...

[@christiankastorf1427]

@@charonstyxferryman I know that keel coolers are pipes or tubes that run along the outside of the outer skin of a boat so the seawater has contact with them all around. Some steamers use that system as condensers instead of having an inboard condenser with cooling water pumped through them. But that is not what I meant. An outside cooling tube system is to some degree vulnerable in groundings. To avoid that the space between between the two platings, call it double-skin or double-hull, is used to cool the engine water.

Was so cool to visit them... :)

@@donnakawana It's a long time ago, but I still remember it was awesome. It was basically my first job and I was still going to school beside of it. It was in 2006, when I just got 15 and I was doing my first server-installments and network-stuff with the team-leader of us. We visited their HQ and they showed me their dry dock, their huge simulators and all this great stuff which normally nobody sees. We worked there for 2 days to update their network and when my team-leader did stuff I couldn't help with, I was allowed to go with one of the DGzRS dudes, who then showed me all of their stuff. It was awesome.

I talked to a fisherman once. He told me that most fishermen make a point never to learn to swim. It is because if your ship sinks, you are as good as dead in the middle of the Bering Strait. If you do not know how to swim, you die in minutes. If you know how to swim, you may have an agonizing death that can take hours. The fisherman spoke very wise and profound words. Long distance fishermen should never learn to swim.

[@indridcold8433]

@@charonstyxferryman The survival suites are required to go on deck under slickers. If one gets washed overboard, the one in the water stands a chanced to be rescued. Without the survival suit, once the fisherman is overboard, the ones onboard might as well not even try to rescue the one that was washed overboard. It is not a pleasant job.
