    I find your videos very rewarding. Chief, it seems like to you like to make sure your crew is happy and enjoying the times between the work.
    I find all the different things that go on are more about the crew and less about the work.
    and I would guess that many of us who do watch enjoy that most.
    I hope you are happy wherever you are in the world at the moment.

  • @kiranshashiny

    Nice video. Question : How did you unload all of that coal ? I saw the loading was easy, but how was unloading done fast ?
    Question 2: Let's say you brought in coal and next load to be carried is grains e.g: Soya or some corn. Is that allowed ? Can you carry food grains after coal ?

I guess I always figured it was kind of like trucking where they pick up a load and deliver it and job done , but it is far from that. Thank You for sharing these videos and enlightening the rest of Us about Life and work aboard a ship. God Bless You & Your crew , here s to a safe , happy , and productive 2022.

    Sometimes the work is long, hard and seemingly never ending. There's always something else that needs to be done.
    And it's easy to be a little down, when you're so far from home, and family, especially during the holiday season.
    But what I see in your videos that really makes me happy, is to see that the crew is, for all their differences or where they're from, they ARE a family!
