Thanks a lot chief, you are such great inspiring me. Let me know a new post about Machineries more cause I need your experience so much and morever I have already practiced on the ship as engine cadet.
nice one chief makoi.. it's inspiring and it can motivate me through this course BSMar-E.. Graduating na ako ngayon chief sana makasampa ako dyan chief.. take care always and God bless
Many years ago when I first started my engineering degree course students were told that a degree doesn't automatically make you an engineer, it just provides the background and understanding that allows you to learn. It was reckoned that it would take five or six years work experience after graduation to get to know the art (at which point the actual degree becomes interesting but essentially unimportant). So you're right -- academics are important but not necessarily essential. What's needed is a good attitude, a willingness to learn and an ability to work as part of a team.
"Your academic records... they don't mean anything once you start working onboard a ship" I rewound it thrice just to make me believe you said this. This gave me serious inspiration and my face lit up after hearing these words. I've a very blotted academic record in college with several backlogs but currently I'm trying to gain as much knowledge about the engine and marine machineries as i can.
I was a cadet engineer for 2 years on a Greek merchant marine academy, but I abandoned the career of a merchant marine engineer despite the fact that I liked it very much, because of the attitude of chiefs and second engineers on the ships I was stationed, they just wanted a person for cleaning and as a servant, and no effort for knowledge was passing on. Maybe I was unlucky and related to the wrong officers, but I pursued another career away of the merchant marine an never looked back, that was 33 years ago. You are a good man chief, and I enjoy your videos very much.
Beautiful post. I was a marine engineer 24 years ago. What a strong memories. I completed almost 13 months assignment in piece all in Asia. That year defined myself. A part of me want to go back in that time but its late now. I left my soul at the sea.
Thanks Chief for your continuous videos and encouragement. Miss the old days of crawling into scavenge spaces and inside oily bilge tanks for hours. Much love from this newly certified 4th Eng. from Kenya! 😃❤️⚓🇰🇪
Markoi. Thank you for your videos of shipboard life, and it is great that the old sea men shear and teach the youg with dignity and patients watching their content of caricature grow for the next generation of sea men. Again, a Big Thank You for shearing videos. Please take care be safe. 👍
I'm soon to be an Engine Cadet, what scares me most is that I often feel anxious and not sure if I can do the work correctly. Many people believe in me that I can survive the struggle onboard but honestly to myself I'm thinking twice if I can make it. I can't stop worrying. You Chief Makoi and Biyahe Edward are my inspiration, and the videos you guys made and shared with us are helpful because it boost my confidence and becoming more motivated than I was in school. I always hoping for the best. Thank you and take care always! You're a living legend.
By watching ur vlog i felt lonely coz i remember my father ... His life and experienced as a seaman ... He was a chief electrician for 13 yrs .... I missed him a lot ...Glad watching how life of a seaman ...
It's true about grades not meaning crap once on board.. It's better to stay humble with an open mind than cocky about some marks you got at shore. Truly a lucky cadet to share with awesome engineers, I feel equally as blessed. Thank you Chief for the awesome video!
Hahaha I just saw the thumbnail again with the crescent wrench, the boy must have felt like a star! You must have given him lots of confidence to stand in front of the camera like that!
Chief Makoi, I am a Marine Engineering student in a school that is not that well known in Cebu, I have been discouraged by many, some are just my relatives, some of them said that after I graduate I might not be able to work effectively and other companies will not hire me in priority because of it, some told me I won't be able to pursue my dream. I took my apprenticeship program on an InterIsland ship. After it I looked for another career as I got discourage of what people are always saying and what they are injecting in my brain. But right now I realized I needed to step up and pursue my career and when I saw your video it boosted my confidence and realized I don't need other peoples feedback to reach my dream. So right now I am in the process of finishing my BS in school. Hopefully I will be able to pass the examination and take my first on board a ship. Thank you Sir Makoi. Godbless you and your family.
As an engine cadet, smelling like grease or diesel at the end of the day is the best case scenario, as often I ended up smelling like sewage and Grey water 😂
I remember my first sewage shower removing a suspected faulty float level indicator from an upright tank standing on a ladder. Was the tank full or not??....yep it was full!
I am also a Marine Engineering graduate although I had been onboard a domestic vessels (small type), it is true that the works there are more complicated than I was expected . Thanks Chief Makoi for this video atleast I had the chance to saw of what a machineries really look like in a larger engine room. Hoping that someday I can also onboard that kind of what we called "engineer's play ground" 🙂
My first day onboard as an engine cadet before was so traumatizing. We joined the vessel while she's anchored at Singapore. After a motorboat took as to our destination, onboard crew lowered down pilot ladder for us to climb aboard while our baggages were tied on ropes and was pulled up. After then, we only had 30 minutes to prepare and off we went to join the crew in transporting stores and spares delivered by boats. After tending the provision, store and spares, the bunkering operation followed which lasted for almost 10 to 11 hours. After that, we then went to ECR to observe our first maneuvering operation (departure) which lasted too long. It was already 3 am when everything was settled. I felt my first day as an engine cadet was hell but now, I realized that It really shaped me to a better person and engineer I am right now.
I relate very much. Though I did not join the vessel in Singapore , when were anchored there , all crew on my ship had a full 8-hr night shift for the 1st time , as bunkering was planned at the same time provisions and spares were being delivered to us.
Chief firstly I wanted to say, very inspiring production. Yes it is true academics are just in a sense of formality. A true work aptitude comes with a passion and from the heart. I'm an aircraft mechanic and never extended the top of my class. Humility and discipline are my greatest weapon in reaching my tenure as of now. Great video as always! Marami ka pang maiinspire sir. 🔥👍👍
Im a graduating Marine engineering student and I hope someday or in a future I could be also a Chief Engineer just like you Chief Makoi. Thank you for inspiring me again sir by sharing some of your knowledge!
Thank you chief Makoi for this video. It really inspired me to become soon to be engine cadet. A very positive message when you said that "academic records are mean nothing when starting on boardship". a good attitude and hardwork are one of the best recipes to reach success. God bless chief. 😊
Chief, thanks for your great videos. I am a frustrated ships engineer, and at 14 was nearly sent to Nova Scotia to join BP Esso as a cadet, but my patron, a top Esso engineer in the late sixties who I met in Mallorca, died and my career ended before it started. Went on to become an airline captain, but I still yearn for the sea and engine room existence. Thanks again for the fabulous videos.
All I can tell you as that I learned my machines little by little. Over time I got to know them so well. Now it's who I am. They run, I run. It's beyond explaination. In the end it's a beautiful thing.
Congrats Chief! Love your canal, you clearly love what you do and have a great way to pass through it to us. I'm finishing my Engineering cadet class and would be a dream come true to have a chance to learn and work with you! Hugs from Portugal.
Thank you chief makoi . For your goodness and God will always blessed you. I inspire always in your videos co'z im also a student of marine engineering, I learned much more in your videos and im very thankful of that 😊
My first visit. Very caring, and well done video. Having you (Chief Makoi) as mentor, makes for a lucky trainee. I'm old now, but spent lots of time working with reciprocating steam engines in a museum setting. I think a good path to engineer, is read all you can find. Old books, new books, all books. Love the job.
Greetings CE Makoi, seeing your videos brings back memories. I left sailing 6 years ago. I'm a marine engineer from Malaysia. Keep up the good work and safe sailing always ✌🚢
I totally agree with you Chief. Grades are just inks written on papers. But the skills, knowledge and most importantly the right attitude are what propel us cadets to the top of our maritime career. God speed sir!
What you said at the end is SOOO TRUE! Having a degree is great (I have one), but that is just a framework for learning. Having the mindset that you will continually learn throughout your life and that education is never actually over, you will become the all-around individual that is needed in any profession that is being pursued.
Chief thank you for this wonderful video as engine cadet I've also learned what you say in this video,you are my best mentor chief..keep sailing and God bless you all chief.
Thank you for making this video 😍 I am a first year college in Marin Engineering, this video motivates me a lot, I'll carry those motivational words of yours until I became an official seafarer ❤💖
Thank you so much chief! I'm looking forward for my apprenticeship this year, and I really need this type of vlog that will guide me for starting a seafaring life thankyou !
Excellent real life wisdom. Your videos are true inspiration. Take pride knowing you are inspiring people from all ages and corners of the world. Had I not become a high steel rigger, I would have been a sea faring rigger and would consider it a privilege to serve on your ship.
Thank you sir for making a vlog about the life of an engine cadet I learn a lot from it. I gain more confidence what to do in order to reach the top position. And I got some tips/knowledge from this video. God Bless sir and have a safe voyage.
Chief MAKOi Ikaw po talaga and dahilan at inspiration ko pati sa mga vlogs mo as a Freshmen MA Engineering saying " YOUR ACADEMIC RECORDS THEY DON'T MEAN ANYTHING ONCE YOU BOARDING IN THE SHIP " and also " THE MOST IMPORTANT ASSETS THAT ONE NEEDS TO HAVE IS A GOOD ATTITUDE AND THE CORRECT MINDSET IN ORDER TO LEARN WHAT THEY NEED TO LEARN AND KEEP THEIR EYES ON THE PRIZE ❤ " :) Ito yung dahilan na gusto ko talagang matoto nito at sana kapag naka graduate ako at mapagbigyan ng pagkakataon na maging cadete sa sa line up mo sana magkatotoo . Thank You Chief God Bless po sayo at sa iyong mga crew :)
Excellent work of the engineers and subordinates of the main machine of a ship ... mainly when bad weather the rest of the crew prays so that the machine does not stop !! 👍
Hi chief Makoi, as of now I am still a maritime student and hoping to reach the top like you did. Thanks for this very inspiring video. I took it to heart when you said "keep your eye on the price", will do chief!
Sir Makoi Thank you sa Video na to na ilang beses ko nang pinanood. Pasakay po ko ngayong march as engine cadet. Sobrang helpful ng mga videos nyo. Godbless you always sir
This is so inspiring. Thank you so much for the words of encouragement Chief! I may be delayed in my dream to be onboard the ship because of the pandemic but it doesn’t mean that I won’t be able to reach it. I will continue to aim high and wait for our God’s perfect timing. ☝🏻 time will come that i will be a seafarer by profession. 🙏🏻 take care always Chief, especially during this pandemic. God bless you and your crew always!
Chief Makoi thanks for motivating me. I am a graduating student and I always remember your lesson "Good Attitude and Correct mindset" thankd Chief Makoi
Hi Chief, I am a new subscriber and am so glad you vlog about the shipboard life. I am a former ship designer and used to go everyday aboard ships, especially in the engine rooms. Keep the videos coming. I love ships!
Wow. Academic records. You are totally right on target !!! There is so much more to it than that. Way beyond. Who are we ??? Anything once we put our minds to it.
Everytime naririnig ko boses nyo chief nawawala pagod ko sa pag aaral. Di naman ako marine engineering student pero masaya ako pag nanunuod ng mga vlog nyo po. 😊 GOD BLESS Chief 😊
salute chief 😊 Hopefully to have more officer like you whose willing to teach and share your knowledge specially for the begginers 😊 God Bless, More Power and Bon Voyage Chief 😊
THANK YOU PO SIR!!! NAKAKA INSPIRE PO DI PA PO AKO NAKAKASAKAY NG BARKO, PERO ATLEAST PO NOW NAKITA KO NA KUNG ANO ANG MAGIGING GAWAIN KO PAG NAKASAKAY NA... GODBLESS PO SIR!! SALUTE!!!
I've finished Engine Cadet in domestic trade. And I'm now currently under training in a company for Int'l planning to take the exam after having enough budget for the exams and trainings. It is so inspiring watching this video of your Chief 😇 Thank you! God Bless us all Seafarers 😇🙏
Chief napaka ganda po ng content ng videos nyo.. MARAMING SALAMAT PO sa pag eeffort gumawa ng mga ganito... tama po yung sinabi nyu na di basehan yung grades talaga. Naniniwala dn ako dun.
it was a very educational video sir chief. sasampa napo aq ngayun lunes baon ang mga natutunan ko sa video na ito na iiyak aq kasi yung dedication nyu sa iyung profession ay mataas. kaya susundin q yung mga sinabi mo chief "just keep the eyes on the price" and ATTITUDE
I'm a mechanical engr and will be bridging for marine engineering in January, thank you for the idea on what I will face after 10 months. My coleagues and friends are thinking I'm insane since I will be abbandoning my wonderful career here but I don't mind starting again at the bottom.
Outstanding episode, well produced and filled with valuable career guidance for a successful life at sea. Nothing of value in marine engineering comes without commitment and significant personal sacrifice. Looking good Chief in you clean khaki. Thanks for the video!
Thank you sir for the episode.. madami kami nakukuhang knowledge. I am engine cadet also and aspiring engineer.. Hardwork,good mindset, good Attitude, etc. And especially dont forget to Pray to be successful. Thanks for your vlog sir. I salute you sir. Godbless
Thanks a lot Mr @ChiefMAKOi. Really. I work teaching English at Maritime University of the Caribbean in Venezuela. And your content has really really really been helpful to design didactic activities for my classes and train my students. Thanks 🙏🙏🙏🙏.
A few months left before i begin my career as engine cadet. When you said "academic records dont mean anything once you start working onboard", you just throw away all the anxiety i had right now. I really feel like im not smart enough to become marine engineer. Extend for 3 semester, a lot of repeat paper, i feel so dumb. But now you just show me the light. And i hope one day i will come again to this video, but as a chief engineer. Thank you chief!
Hi chief, i just want to say thanks for the videos and the inspirations that you have gave to all of us. I have an interview for maritime school tomorrow and i hope i will be accepted to my dream school. Respect chief 🔥
I was a dive contractor for a few years, primarily on cruise ships but also the occasional cargo ship. We worked a lot with the engineering departments, due to the need to lock out/ tag out everything we touched. I always thought that being a chief engineer had to be one of the hardest jobs in the world. Just the scope and scale of the responsibilities is incredible.
Chief. Ive been a follower of your vlogs eversince i got hooked up with one of your videos. I love how profecient and compenent you are in this profession. I am from deck department but i love watching and learning how those contraptions work and what i love the most is your humility and the wisdom you share especially to us co-seafarers. God bless you chief. Hope to sail with you soon. O/S here and working his best to become a captain as respected as you. Mabuhay ka.😊
Oh one more thing sir. I very much agreed with you with a strong conviction that academic records doesnt matter onboard. Knowledge can be learned. Right attitude and humility are more important. 😉
Most inspiring video so far thankyou for sharing chief makoi this video made me so much inspire to be a seaferer soon now im a freshman of marine engineering student and after watching this video now im really excited to graduate and to be a cadete thankyou again sir and godbless
I really like your channel, Chief! Life at sea is so interesting! I’ve been a chef for 10 years so hey, maybe someday I could try it out. I think I would really appreciate it. That’s a very serious decision though so give me a couple years to think about it. Haha Also, when I started working in a kitchen that was my first time experiencing the hidden intricacies of something very familiar. Cleaning in particular. That tends to be the first thing I think about when I look at things from a “everything is done by someone” point of view. The engine room is this video is a perfect example. Thanks for the glimpse into your life! Take care!

Nice video cheif it makes me motivated to become a marine engineer 😊 i hope you will becone my backer soon hehehe
I love all your vlog chief! I hope you can make another video about the job of the 4th engineer.
Thanks a lot chief, you are such great inspiring me.
Let me know a new post about Machineries more cause I need your experience so much and morever I have already practiced on the ship as engine cadet.
Chief makoi sana sunod oiler Naman 😅
nice one chief makoi.. it's inspiring and it can motivate me through this course BSMar-E.. Graduating na ako ngayon chief sana makasampa ako dyan chief.. take care always and God bless

Hello. I’d love to know what you are doing now, four years later. How did you progress and what did you become?
I was a cadet engineer for 2 years on a Greek merchant marine academy, but I abandoned the career of a merchant marine engineer despite the fact that I liked it very much, because of the attitude of chiefs and second engineers on the ships I was stationed, they just wanted a person for cleaning and as a servant, and no effort for knowledge was passing on. Maybe I was unlucky and related to the wrong officers, but I pursued another career away of the merchant marine an never looked back, that was 33 years ago. You are a good man chief, and I enjoy your videos very much.
What career did u pursue when u quit?
Whic country are come from
Beautiful post. I was a marine engineer 24 years ago. What a strong memories. I completed almost 13 months assignment in piece all in Asia. That year defined myself. A part of me want to go back in that time but its late now. I left my soul at the sea.
Thanks Chief for your continuous videos and encouragement. Miss the old days of crawling into scavenge spaces and inside oily bilge tanks for hours. Much love from this newly certified 4th Eng. from Kenya! 😃❤️⚓🇰🇪
Hello Paulo ..i have something that i need to share with you and if you dont mind i realy need your help ..Ismail from TZ 🇹🇿
CADET (CallAnytimeDoEverything)-Assist as required. 🤣🤣🤣
Its where every officer's started. Best of luck lil bro..😄
Sammylee Jr , haha) fun explanation of that acronym))
Yon pla yown hehehhe
You are a good officer chief Makoi! *salute* Im a deck cadet now onboard on a LCT dreaming someday to be a good officer just like you
Markoi.
Thank you for your videos of shipboard life, and it is great that the old sea men shear and teach the youg with dignity and patients watching their content of caricature grow for the next generation of sea men. Again, a Big Thank You for shearing videos. Please take care be safe. 👍
I'm soon to be an Engine Cadet, what scares me most is that I often feel anxious and not sure if I can do the work correctly. Many people believe in me that I can survive the struggle onboard but honestly to myself I'm thinking twice if I can make it. I can't stop worrying. You Chief Makoi and Biyahe Edward are my inspiration, and the videos you guys made and shared with us are helpful because it boost my confidence and becoming more motivated than I was in school. I always hoping for the best. Thank you and take care always! You're a living legend.
By watching ur vlog i felt lonely coz i remember my father ... His life and experienced as a seaman ... He was a chief electrician for 13 yrs .... I missed him a lot ...Glad watching how life of a seaman ...
Very well done! I spent four years in the US Navy as a Machinist Mate. Great depiction of shipboard life. Keep them coming!
Thanks Todd!
@@ChiefMAKOi why don’t you try to work in cruise ship? or because you got a lot of sallary here than in cruise ship?
Navy life is different, because the captain always call fire drill middle of the night-that alone makes me want to quit. I was MM on CG-24 .
@@Cordycep1 because it’s military. Military always has to be ready and training. Yeah it gets hectic and stressful
OOD: Captain...a seagull just flew by our ship!
Captain: "Sound general quarters!!"
A mechanic cannot fix a car engine while it’s running! While a marine engineer must fix any problems in the engine room while at haste! 🤣
Exactly brother,,marine engineers does the best
Wow....now I know what my son is studying to be. ...I'm so proud. ....
It's true about grades not meaning crap once on board.. It's better to stay humble with an open mind than cocky about some marks you got at shore. Truly a lucky cadet to share with awesome engineers, I feel equally as blessed. Thank you Chief for the awesome video!
Hahaha I just saw the thumbnail again with the crescent wrench, the boy must have felt like a star! You must have given him lots of confidence to stand in front of the camera like that!

Looks like there's a huge world of things ship's engineers need to know. He seems like a good kid. I hope things work out well for him.
Thank you, Chief for sharing your knowledge about ships, especially in the engine room and all ship machinery
I'm so happy to see a new post! Brilliant as always, especially your commentary and observations.

This is very impressive. I have always needed this to know what's Engine cadetship training looks like.
Thank you Chief MAKOi
Chief thank you for this wonderful video as engine cadet I've also learned what you say in this video,you are my best mentor chief..keep sailing and God bless you all chief.
Good luck and safe voyage wherever you go. My son is second engineer hope he reaches chief's position soon. God bless you and greetings from Goa

nice vid chief i will wait for another episode and thanks for that vid now i know what are the different duties of a cadet
From my eyes - - - a life that might have been. Thank you for showing, and kudos to the people who appeared in this vid. :-)
Great videos Chief!!! Keep up the good work, very inspiring videos!!!!
Hi chief Makoi, as of now I am still a maritime student and hoping to reach the top like you did. Thanks for this very inspiring video. I took it to heart when you said "keep your eye on the price", will do chief!
Kudos Chief for a very informative video! You're an inspiration for sure to many of our kababayans! Well done!
Very informative vlog as always :) Happy hearts day Chief 💕💕

Work looks very hard but the comraderie and good teachers nake it worth it I bet, I'm glad you are always so honest about the job
Sir Makoi Thank you sa Video na to na ilang beses ko nang pinanood. Pasakay po ko ngayong march as engine cadet. Sobrang helpful ng mga videos nyo. Godbless you always sir
This is so inspiring. Thank you so much for the words of encouragement Chief! I may be delayed in my dream to be onboard the ship because of the pandemic but it doesn’t mean that I won’t be able to reach it. I will continue to aim high and wait for our God’s perfect timing. ☝🏻 time will come that i will be a seafarer by profession. 🙏🏻 take care always Chief, especially during this pandemic. God bless you and your crew always!
Chief Makoi thanks for motivating me. I am a graduating student and I always remember your lesson "Good Attitude and Correct mindset" thankd Chief Makoi

Hi Chief, I am a new subscriber and am so glad you vlog about the shipboard life. I am a former ship designer and used to go everyday aboard ships, especially in the engine rooms. Keep the videos coming. I love ships!
This is quite inspiring and encouragement to young and professional engineers onboard a ship. Many thanks
Wow. Academic records. You are totally right on target !!! There is so much more to it than that. Way beyond. Who are we ??? Anything once we put our minds to it.
Thank you for motivation chief.

"just keep the eyes on the price"
and ATTITUDE
I'm a mechanical engr and will be bridging for marine engineering in January, thank you for the idea on what I will face after 10 months.
My coleagues and friends are thinking I'm insane since I will be abbandoning my wonderful career here but I don't mind starting again at the bottom.
Outstanding episode, well produced and filled with valuable career guidance for a successful life at sea. Nothing of value in marine engineering comes without commitment and significant personal sacrifice. Looking good Chief in you clean khaki. Thanks for the video!
Thanks Chuck!
Thank you sir for the episode.. madami kami nakukuhang knowledge. I am engine cadet also and aspiring engineer..
Hardwork,good mindset, good Attitude, etc. And especially dont forget to Pray to be successful.
Thanks for your vlog sir. I salute you sir. Godbless
Thanks a lot Mr @ChiefMAKOi. Really. I work teaching English at Maritime University of the Caribbean in Venezuela. And your content has really really really been helpful to design didactic activities for my classes and train my students. Thanks 🙏🙏🙏🙏.
A few months left before i begin my career as engine cadet. When you said "academic records dont mean anything once you start working onboard", you just throw away all the anxiety i had right now. I really feel like im not smart enough to become marine engineer. Extend for 3 semester, a lot of repeat paper, i feel so dumb. But now you just show me the light. And i hope one day i will come again to this video, but as a chief engineer. Thank you chief!
Bro from which college u had completed ur study's
I think it’s great you give young cadets a chance to share their stories!
Thanks Wally! Everyone has a story to tell.
Hi chief, i just want to say thanks for the videos and the inspirations that you have gave to all of us. I have an interview for maritime school tomorrow and i hope i will be accepted to my dream school. Respect chief 🔥
Very informative and well done video. Thank you for posting!
I was a dive contractor for a few years, primarily on cruise ships but also the occasional cargo ship. We worked a lot with the engineering departments, due to the need to lock out/ tag out everything we touched. I always thought that being a chief engineer had to be one of the hardest jobs in the world. Just the scope and scale of the responsibilities is incredible.
Chief. Ive been a follower of your vlogs eversince i got hooked up with one of your videos. I love how profecient and compenent you are in this profession. I am from deck department but i love watching and learning how those contraptions work and what i love the most is your humility and the wisdom you share especially to us co-seafarers. God bless you chief. Hope to sail with you soon. O/S here and working his best to become a captain as respected as you. Mabuhay ka.😊
Oh one more thing sir. I very much agreed with you with a strong conviction that academic records doesnt matter onboard. Knowledge can be learned. Right attitude and humility are more important. 😉
Most inspiring video so far thankyou for sharing chief makoi this video made me so much inspire to be a seaferer soon now im a freshman of marine engineering student and after watching this video now im really excited to graduate and to be a cadete thankyou again sir and godbless
I really like your channel, Chief! Life at sea is so interesting! I’ve been a chef for 10 years so hey, maybe someday I could try it out. I think I would really appreciate it. That’s a very serious decision though so give me a couple years to think about it. Haha
Also, when I started working in a kitchen that was my first time experiencing the hidden intricacies of something very familiar. Cleaning in particular. That tends to be the first thing I think about when I look at things from a “everything is done by someone” point of view. The engine room is this video is a perfect example.
Thanks for the glimpse into your life! Take care!
