Matthew very interesting video again. Loved the way you got Matthew to through water at you, I'm sure he/she loved doing it. To answer your question as to why you put yourself through this kind of stuff is because you love it. There seems to be quite a lot of details big and small to remember. You really got to want to move up the ranks. I'm sure though over time all this information becomes instinct. Loved your video Matthew.

Matthew, that was really excellent and so informative and easy for the layperson to understand! I don't think that I have ever seen anyone take the time to explain these systems so carefully. I do watch the channel called, Karanvir Singh Nayyar , where he has taken time to explain many things. He is from India and last worked on a large cargo ship called the Emma Maersk. He has one bar on his uniform and he works on the bridge. He has taken lots of time to explain many things. The Merchant Marine crews seem to all be from the Philippines, India or Sri Lanka and they are paid based on where they are from.

@@WorkonaSuperyacht currently I'm home my last ship was a 85,000 GRT tanker. Your set up much nicer than on the comercial vessels I served on, we have a bit more equipment like both X & S radars, we have more options for signal lights, None Follow Up steering system, Rate Of Turn indicator, less engine controls as we have engine room that are maned when we need, we don't start hydraulic, or air on deck, that is done from the engine. Most of my vessel didn't have thrusters as we are required to use tugboats in and out of ports anyway, also no trolling, but we did have Controllable Pitch Propeller on one Ice Class Tanker I was on, best ever. I think you would have done well on the bridge of a much bigger vessel. Happy Easter

@WorkonaSuperyacht
@WorkonaSuperyacht 3 жыл бұрын
Thanks Juan! I know this is your area of expertise, so I was hoping you'd like it. We haven't been provided with compass repeaters, so we have to use a hand-bearing compass. Thank you for adding the note about ARPA! For anyone reading these comments, it stands for Automatic Radar Plotting Aid. I also messed up my recording about Digital Selective Calling for the radios, but I plan to go into greater detail on these subjects in future videos.

In this case, everything will be done on computer (except for areas where electronic navigational charts aren't available), and updates will be a lot easier!

It all looks surprisingly simple and straightforward . No idea why it should take so long to learn, as per one of your earlier posts. Is this by any chance due to a lack of pre educational qualifications ?? Therefore plodding at the pace of the slowest student ? Certainly in comparison to aviation this is kiddie simple and super slow
@WorkonaSuperyacht
@WorkonaSuperyacht 3 жыл бұрын
Hello SandhoeFlyer, and thanks for your comment. You are right that it need not take 3 years to learn the principles of safe navigation, and to pass all the exams required to attain an OOW qualification. However, there is a very big difference between gaining knowledge in a classroom, and applying that knowledge in real world scenarios where human life and the environment depend on you taking the right actions. Accordingly, the bulk of the 3 years required to attain an OOW qualification are spent putting what has been learnt into practice. Furthermore, it should be noted that the program of training isn't limited to navigation; it also includes management of other crew, the safe and proper operation of all deck equipment, fire safety, life-saving appliances, tender driving, meteorology, ship construction, etc.

Hello Alex. There is always a chance that these electronic devices might fail. That's why we have to test them regularly, and why we must learn the manual, non-electronic way of doing things, such as fixing our position on a chart using a hand-bearing compass.

@Rad Mallu I'm sorry to hear that the certificate you received isn't valid. What is a BCS certificate? Is this a deck officer qualification? The minimum certification required to work as a deckhand on a superyacht is the STCW 2010 basic courses, Seafarer's Medical, and a powerboat licence. If you were crossing over from the merchant navy as a qualified deck officer, you may also need to start out as a deckhand to gain some yachting experience. In this case, it would be beneficial if you had previously worked on cruise ships or passenger ferries. I don't have any jobs to refer you for, but there are many yacht crew agencies that you can sign up with online. You simply need to create your online profile, upload your CV, and they will let you know about any job opportunities for which you might be suitable. I have a video about how to do this, which includes links to some popular agencies in the description: kzbin.info/www/bejne/aHPaloyelKZ9hqc In addition, new yacht crew often have most success by basing themselves in a major yachting destination such as the Mediterranean or Florida. This may not be possible at present, but you can watch my video about dockwalking for a better understanding of how the process works: kzbin.info/www/bejne/hmrOppuEabConM0 I hope that helps, and please let me know if you have any further questions.
