    Ships transport 90 percent of the world's goods traffic. Our film accompanies the giants of the sea on their journey. From a shipyard in China, where giant cargo ships are built, to a fully automated terminal in Rotterdam to ALP Striker, the most powerful oceangoing tug worldwide. Also the program shows environmentally friendly concepts that use wind, hydrogen or LNG (liquefied natural gas) as a power unit. Superships - where will their journey head in the future?

      He’s lucky he’s building them instead of living aboard. Merchant seafaring is indentured servitude for up to an entire year spent at sea with no time off working as much as 100 hours per week. American seamen have it relatively easy in that they typically only get stuck aboard for four months, but again, typically with no days off working up to 100 hours per week. Then you get these two month vacations back home where you don’t even know anyone who’s a seaman. It’s the twilight zone. I quit after eight years to become a barber.

      @@Glenn-em3hv I was in the navy and got out. I could hardly wait to get out the entire time I was in because I foolishly volunteered for submarine duty. I got a shot at OCS and was so disgusted with the chickenshit double dose of boot camp that I resigned after just 3 days. In retrospect I might’ve found the navy more agreeable if I’d been maybe a cook or a ship’s serviceman [barber] instead of a quartermaster. I ended up in the merchant marine as a boatswain’s mate which means I really should’ve been a BM in the navy as well at least for that job. Lots of merchant marine officers are naval reservists and typically they’re not tempted to volunteer to go on active duty so that’s got to tell you something.

    Very well done! Òne problem I did notice was the pronunciation of Newfoundland. It is not "NewFINland". It is "NewfnLAND".
    I should add that the presenter's pronunciation was at least original. I don't recall hearing that one ever before. I think most of my confreres in Newfoundland, if forced to accept a change, would not mind being associated with a country and a people like Finland, our new NATO friends.

    Oil drilling rig are transported by special ships. ALP Striker....is a specialist ship , the cargo it tugs is the oil drilling rig. The tow line cannot snap at sea.The pontoons show efficient stability. Such transport is extremely rare, and very risky . Tow lines have to be checked regularly by engineers in a rubber dingy. The destination of the drilling rig...the seven seas is a busy water way.

    • @marcmeinzer8859
      @marcmeinzer8859 Před rokem +2

      Absolutely. Bulk carriers are the most dangerous ships owing to their general lack of compartmentalization in tandem with the tendency of wet iron ore to form sulfuric acid which then eats holes in the hull. They literally vanish without a trace. Working bulk carriers on the Great Lakes isn’t quite as dangerous because the fresh water there isn’t as corrosive.
