    my father was a Stevadore for the British Phosphate Commission in the 70 & 80s. As little kids, he'd take us on board the ships, very cool, and why I enjoy your videos so much. Straight out of school, I did a stint as a Seagull, a Warfy, working those hoppers unloading that Super Phos. Later, I was a Fitters-Mate doing maintenance on the Grabs. The ones in your video seem very well maintained, I didn't see too much leaking but still always enough for someone to push a broom around and get it back in the hold.
    Bravo, Chief.
