    Just to point out the main engines and generators, and in modern ships virtually all of the equipment that requires cooling is cooled by treated fresh water to minimise corrosion. This coolant is then cooled by sea water.

    Really cool control room on that ship!

If i could sail anywhere it would be a Alaska cruise in the summer in the area yall went on.

    Great video James. We have been cruising for many years now and you have done something we always dream of..... seeing the engine room. You were very lucky to have experienced that. 😃 Good to hear you saying ship, rather than boat this time, although you did slip once or twice 😉. Really looking forward to the next video 👌

    • @Mister_H

      BARBSTER360 It’s mainly due to cargo carrying capacity. Low capacity = boats, high cargo/passengers = ship. Maybe I need to get friendly with the captain next time for a tour of the engines 😄. Looking forward to the next video!

    • @kingsman4181
      @kingsman4181 5 років тому

      @@BARBSTER360 I know this quite a while ago, but a boat is a small to mid-sized vessel, which has much lesser cargo carrying capability as compared to a ship. Ships are specifically made to carry cargo or passengers or boats, whereas boat is a generic term used for a variety of water crafts. Mainly boats are used for recreational purposes like fishing, water skiing, or ferrying people. Hope that helps!

      They were sailing The Sound, and you can hear the bow thrusters in the background, which indicates that the ship is turning. The Sound has many creeks, which the Rotterdam with her size can easily access. But in order to get back, the ship will either do a 360, 180 or thrust backwards.

      Phones never were 'PC's in your Pocket" where that phrase came from is actually Steve Jobs back in 04 he envisioned both phones and PC's working together where you can switch to either mode so if you want apps you go to phones if you want software you go to PC. The big companies didn't want it that way in 06 they decided phones because they can make more money thru subscriptions and all that crap. Microsoft first,Google and now Apple are all doing it and PC people do NOT like it. There is hardly any software now for PC and hasn't been for a long time though 10 years ago there were LOADS from companies that no longer exist.

      @KD 10,good day,almost all cruise ship are of same engine rooms and machineries,they varies only the type of manufacturers of the engine,actually if you mean Main Engine on the cruise ship,you can not find a main engine unlike the cargo ship,let me tell you this,on the large cruise ship like this,there are four to six large engines of the same sizes that's why no main engine,these large engines,connected each one to each generator to produce electricity,the electricity being pruduce,supply the axymuthing pod(propellers,4 propellers if the ship travel) and also supply all the electrical equipments aboard the ship.so no main engine unlike in cargo,there's main engine to propelled the ship only and other smaller engines for generating electricity for ship's use.that's the difference w/the cruise ship and of a cargo ship.

      I assume you're referring to the charts showing the pH and chlorine content of the water. I can't remember the exact requirements, but the pH should be close to 7 (which high school chemistry will tell you is neutral pH). The reading on the analyser shows 6.82, so close enough. The other figure on the graph is chlorine content measured in ppm.
