Hello, Chief. I have watched your videos already for a one year. I am a cadet in Admiral Makarov Academy in Saints Petersburg. I will have my first practice after a couple of months in MTM company. I am really surprised that you working there as well. That will be amazing, if I will be on the one ship with you. Thanks for your videos, they really helps new marine workers in English skills and also in sea-going procedures knowledge and some aspects. THANKS A LOT
Hey Chief, great video! We spoke a while back on your video of cleaning a bulk tanker talking about confined spaces and the like and I've got a similar question here. How are the tanks on this ship cleaned? Trucks and smaller storage vessels like the 30,000L tanks I deal with are fairly easy, just needing a bunch of steam for non food grade chemicals but how does it work on a ship? I assume it's a little more difficult to clean at sea than your video of a bulk ship showed and I'm guessing it's not as easy as just putting on the steam and draining it after an hour or two. How do you transition from industrial chemicals to food grade loads?
All i can say is this : People from the Philippines look great , look lively , they work hard with discipline and afterwards they know how to have fun and keep their spirit high ! It seems to me they are naturally polite and smiling most of the time ! Your drone skills my friend are next level by the way ! That was just another amazing video
From beginning, to its conclusion, this work exemplifies mastery in the art of telling a worthy story. It brings us, once again, into a world which for me is so dissimilar to my daily life. Yet, the common thread which binds the construction of this tapestry holds a shining truth: The heart of every man and woman is a root from which all else is known. This viewer is continually impressed, and encouraged by the skills. But, much more than this, I hold gratitude to have heard the heart of a distant fellow traveler. I, too am proud to be one of them.
Looking at that "welcome" buffet for the oncoming crew and their loved ones tells me this is a Filipino crew without even seeing anyone. I have a few Filipino friends who have taught me in their own friendly way that great food and warm fellowship are a huge part of their culture.
As usual Chief an awesome well done video. Your videos are well edited and flow smoothly. You have a pleasant speaking voice. Thanks for sharing. Be safe and continue sharing the life of a seafarers
Thanks Chief. As the son (now 76 years of age) of a former Chief Engineer in the British Merchant Marine, I am impressed. But most of all; I was extremely impressed with the saying of Grace Before Meals by the families and crew of that ship. They were not scared to demonstrate their faith when they made the Sign of the Cross. Great Vlogs. I have enjoyed all of them.
Chief, Well done, Sir! The emphasis on safety, the cleanliness of the engine room and ship should make your company very proud. Their commitment for excellence shows in their priorities and in you! Thanks for another great video!
Haha mostly they are not !! This is a good one , some may be a lill bitt off but not like the movies I guess . This is a shipnrun by a good organization
I know little about running a large ocean going vessel. However over my 60 year career I have learned to recognize quality and excellent leadership. You said that you are "proud o be one of them". You sir are an excellent leader and I am sure that the crew is proud of the work you do. Congratulations. Happy Easter.
Wow. Being a seamans look pretty similar to the U.S . squidlits life on board the carriers, cruisers, destroyers, and corvettes, I was attach as a security personnel on Abraham for sea duty 10 months before I went back to the fleet and got to see the NAVY way of life... As jarhead grunt were land base fighting force .... but sea life is fun if only once and a while......got to see Lotta places and Lotta ports..... I gotta give to you guys sea fearers....SALAMAT PO Respect.. God bless Gods speed
Ang galing,dating seafarer din ako.sa cruise line ako bilang cook.alam ko ang hirao nyo.nkakainspire,sayang at di ko man lng nasubukan sa cargo vessel magtrabaho.but God Bless all seafarers ng pinas at sa ibang bansa.
"Goosebumps" while watching your last episodes @Chief_MAKOi Love the way you conduct your life and profession by choosing the perfect team. Very emotional and inspiring. It was great to see you on board again. Thanks for sharing! Best wishes from Spain.
Thank you sir. Your videos are so amazing to watch. From the drone shoots, to the information of the ship, and of course crew, and family. Thank you, God bless.
I don't know why, but I love watching your videos at night they are both informative and just very relaxing, which I bet is quite the opposite of the content of many in regards to all the work that is being done.
This VLOG was refreshing to me after rewatching all of your other videos, thank you for this,I cant wait for you to return to sea and make some new memories.
I'm in a different field, but it may be similar in that I am employed by one company that has contracted their services to another company that owns the location wherein a third company makes my life miserable. I'm a contractor under an umbrella employment being paid by my company. If the contract I'm on disappears, I might get shifted elsewhere in the client company, or relocated to a different contract by my employer. Or just terminated.
Chief. I'm new here. Two weeks ago. Can you tell me when you upload videos? It doesn't seem like its very often. Just not sure how you work your channel as far as videos go. Thanks
Hi Todd. I've just been busy these past 2 months. But I'm working on a few videos which will be uploaded in the next few weeks. I'm also scheduled to go back to shipboard duty on May so hang on because season 3 will have greater improvements compared to my earlier videos!
@@ChiefMAKOi please respond to this message. I so appreciate your videos. I would love to knit watchman's caps for the crew! Please interview a Bosun. I watch your videos because I miss my dad. His days as a Merchant Marine encouraged me to pursue a degree in art history. Thank you so much for all of your time & efforts. Oh how I love to ship out just to follow in my Dad's footsteps. I hope to pursue a degree in Maritime Law to help our Merchant Marines.
It's interesting to see how professionals work all over the world. When I was on active duty, I served with many people from the Philippines. They were great people to serve with.
Just found your channel. Love it. It's nice to see a gentleman who knows it's not all about him but it takes a whole crew to make a ship go. All the Best to you and you family. Safe voyages.
if the cargo was cooking oil... the rating would be Class -1, but there would not no vapors in sufficient quantity. ? Division-2 would apply, (accidental discharge) but all vapors would be below the LEL ? Group... no group fits, no explosive gasses, no dusts.... ? most tools, brass and aluminum ? very interesting to have to think about the worst possible of the worst possible, because you cannot just call for some emergency vehicles to drive over in a few minutes. Thanks, making me think a bit !!!!
This evening here in Rotterdam on board of MSC Ilona a containervessel bringing 7 pallets provision for them, . part of the crew were Pinoy, s , incl the Mayor,., I could eat what I want , rice , soup with yammi chicken parts,., beef, salade, hamburgers, , Thanks again Philippino crew for the hospitality !!!!!!!!, alway s nice ., the ship is now under way to Le Havre and then to the USA,. till then they have enough food.!!!
I'm getting hungry watching this video. That has to be some of the best food I have ever seen on a ship anywhere. That food is better than the best food you would find on a cruise ship! Nobody will want to leave the ship with that type of food onboard☺
Hats off to you, sir! You're a true renaissance man. You're a poet, a philosopher, a sage and an all-around good guy. I've enjoyed your very well-executed videos very much.
You really have a reason to be proud, Chief! BTW, the lady with you, in high visibility vest, is a part of your "leadership visit" team, and others are family members? No female crew members yet?
You make very nice videos. Well shot, well edited and well narrated. I live inland and have no real experience with teh sea or merchant marine, but I find your videos quite interesting.
Really enjoy your videos. Have spent hours watching. I worked on large draglines some with large engines with elect drive so I enjoy the equipment being like what I worked on and maintain.
Well..all I can say is...another outstanding video, well done, as always. I imagine it felt good just walking up the brow and getting your feet back on deck, even though you weren't getting underway. There is just something about standing on a ship's deck, the smell of the air, gulls flying overhead, it just feels good, underway or not. Thanks again Chief for another GREAT video, all the very best to you and yours.
Hey Chief, I have just found out your channel and I can’t stop watching your excellent videos! Great content and congratulations YOU ARE A GREAT COMMUNICATOR! You should launch your naval security awareness company and will make a ton of money! Keep up the great content!
Just signed off, and watching your great inspirational video Chief, so much integrity in that ship, we must learn from them. Thank you for sharing this lovely video.
I could listen to you all day. You do a great job. You should really try to expand what you do. Send some tapes to the different channels especially the discovery channel.
A boring life you can ever have. I work as a piping quality assurance for Keppel group. I went to Brazil with my team that was a boring journey ever. Wish I could never face again 😔
That must be nice going to a home port and being able to show your family where you work. Is it totally outside the realm of posability of having your wife aboard for a voyage ?
Chief, I thoroughly enjoy your videos. There is a wholesomeness and goodness behind what you do.
Same, I just didnt enjoy the fact they had a woman on board.
@@BillClinton228 apart from superstition. Many women are just as qualified as men in the trades needed to run a ship.

Damn! you should be making promotional videos like this for the shipping companies, the videos are like Hollywood studio film quality!!
Chief, Well done, Sir! The emphasis on safety, the cleanliness of the engine room and ship should make your company very proud. Their commitment for excellence shows in their priorities and in you! Thanks for another great video!
We have been lied to. Movies, tv, and video games have led us to believe engine rooms are dark, dirty, and greasy.
Haha mostly they are not !! This is a good one , some may be a lill bitt off but not like the movies I guess . This is a shipnrun by a good organization

Greetings from Malta shipyard where we are doing drydock (I am corporate IT).
Your videos are always interesting.
Thanks Luigi!
This VLOG was refreshing to me after rewatching all of your other videos, thank you for this,I cant wait for you to return to sea and make some new memories.
Chief, question. Is there a reason that the names of the ships you work on & feature in your videos are not shown or indeed blanked out?
Company policy
Thank you Sir. The quality of the videos is always awesome. The way you explained everything is totally amazing.
well done and a clean vessel indeed. I would be considered a real pig myself the way I keep my shop. Thanks for the tour!!
Chief...you keep mentioning contracts. Are you an employee of a shipping company, or are you considered a self-employed contractor?
Chief MAKOi
(Chief Engineer rank) he works for a company,

if the cargo was cooking oil...
the rating would be Class -1, but there would not no vapors in sufficient quantity. ?
Division-2 would apply, (accidental discharge) but all vapors would be below the LEL ?

most tools, brass and aluminum ? very interesting to have to think about the worst possible of the worst possible, because you cannot just call for some emergency vehicles to drive over in a few minutes.

Hats off to you, sir! You're a true renaissance man. You're a poet, a philosopher, a sage and an all-around good guy. I've enjoyed your very well-executed videos very much.
Dear sir,
video editing wass excellent. As a seafearer i fell inspired after watching your video.
Love from bangladesh.
A floating Philippine Restaurant...!
my boyfriend is onboard now. we used to watch your vlogs before up until now everytime i miss him i just look at your vlogs!
Looking forward to your next contract.
From a cadet & small UA-camr here:
Merry Christmas po and Happy New Year ebliwan!
You really have a reason to be proud, Chief!
BTW, the lady with you, in high visibility vest, is a part of your "leadership visit" team, and others are family members? No female crew members yet?
She was my assistant. Some ships have female crewmembers.
Chief can you do a video giving tips to those aspiring marine engineer officers, ratings and cadets. Thank you chief 😁
Chief, I really enjoy your. videos, thank you for sharing them with us.
Vegetable oil is considered a chemical? How many gallons are carried?
In trucking anything over 1,001bulk pounds is considered hazmat. I'd assume the same rules apply to ships.
I’ve worked with Filipinos, Proffessional and fun people to work with
Chief makoi andto ka pala samin sa mariveles bataan sayang nakapag pa pic sana at nakasama sa vlog mo!😁
Good Job Chief.....
Awsome video my favourite bit is the engine room lol well kept neat and tidy ..... lichon is masarap 💙
Yes I love watching these videos from the other side of the world and see how their ships are operated its very Fascinating
Greeting Chief Makoi I enjoy your videos
Amazing job Chief! Greetings from Uruguay from a 3rd engineer!
You make very nice videos. Well shot, well edited and well narrated. I live inland and have no real experience with teh sea or merchant marine, but I find your videos quite interesting.
Parang ang bait mo talaga Chief soft spoken and very good English... galing ng mga video nakaka addict . Informative and entertaining.
boses pang national geographic idol
Nice to see you back onboard a ship again Chief!
Another fine video Chief , although with your narration you would make paint drying on a bulkhead interesting
Really enjoy your videos. Have spent hours watching. I worked on large draglines some with large engines with elect drive so I enjoy the equipment being like what I worked on and maintain.
Brilliant as usual. Thank you chief
Thank you for dharing Chief!
If TV was still like this I'd watch TV.
TV is owned now by fear mongers.

The Inspector was not wearing any ear protection during his visit to the engine room !!! ☹️ .
