Thanks for the video! My brother was a science tech back in '05. Always was sending pictures and stories back home that made me 2nd guess my life choices...

Thanks for the video, I worked at Avondale when that ship was built. I cut a lot of the steel that went into her, but never had the opportunity to actually go aboard.

[@howardejjohnson9477]

I welded in the bow. Was very narrow.

[@cptray-steam]

This is useful, I plan on recreating her in a game and I need as much information about the interioir of the ship as possible.

Thank you for the tour. I retired from the reserve and spent my time on the inland rivers and MSOs. I would have loved to have been on an ice breaker or cutter.

So what are the Uscg jobs that would mostly likely get sent to Alaska on the Healy or other ships? Like are their Gms on the Healy? I dont know much about it is why Im asking.

[@cptray-steam]

Sherwood reminds me of one of the guys I went to basic with. His name was Sun. Pretty cool dude. No doubt Sherwood is a different person but anyways.

You gotta knock on the door before you swing it open lol

[@adoomator]

This is awesome. :)

[@johnonorgan]

we called them water tight doors when I served

[@girlsrockurboyz]

they're still called that, this guy does'nt know nautical nonmenclature or terms that well.

[@shivamgagad5674]

He does... trust me!

[@michaelc3544]

I didn't know civilians work on ships like this. Too late now for me to change careers.

Really, thumbs down? Who would do that? Go to CNN or something and do that.

[@fleet_plastic]

Chris do what

[@Nobamaable]

Water tight doors...not water proof!

[@tikitweaker]

water tight hatch...not doors

[@tjwalker960]

Doors allow passage through bulkheads (or walls), hatches (and scuttles) allow passage through decks (or floors). USCG retired, 28 years... I know a thing or two, because I’ve seen a thing or two.

I like the other Coast Guard videos with less talking and more good music instead

[@jabbawabba4949]

no thanks

[@racebannon5013]

the music is always so shitty

[@fleet_plastic]

SirFartinTheFace yah same I mean it’s a good video but he talks too much
