Fantastic and timely explination of this incident. Great job! And the background on the earlier incident with the collision in Hamburg between a ferry boat and the Ever Given was a scoop on legacy media outlets.
Your personal knowledge of the places, type of vessels involved, and local conditions was extreamly enlightening.
Thank you Same Ship Different Day!
Thanks Leland!
@@SameShipDifferentDay heard about the children rescued from the ever given or its navigation system being hacked to send it of course, dig some
With a pilot on board the Suez Authority have full control of the ship. I really can't see them letting this ship into the canal surly protocols would have to be observed if the conditions are undesirable. Owners of ships entering the canal must indemnify the authority as a condition of navigation for any losses as a result

Best ship channel recommendation I was EVER GIVEN.
I was just about to comment, haven't seen much good ship content on here, but this guy's awesome. Learned a lot.
Ba dum tss
Lol :))
What about
SailorVince or Drachenfels?
As ex master of P and O in 1960 ‘s. Good to see you here. Nice to see they have improved the uniforms. Go ashore before you get too old that’s my advice. Remember bulbous bows will drive into the side like a phallus into ....(leave that to you ) . Most reports have missed this point. Hard to extract
I also heard that everyone makes mistakes, But rarely we make a mistake that you can see from Space.
Oops! 👍😜😎
So I’ve heard as well
Thank you for further explaining how human factors/weather created this accident. Between you, Captain Makoi, and Blancolirio, we feel very well informed. Glad you gave us your insights.
I was not expecting Juan to do a video on this ship. He should definitely be a journalist for all the transportation industry. He is very knowledgeable and he gets straight to the point with no bullshit.
@Marti u mean Chief Makoi hes. Chief Engineer
I guess you guys dont know the crew are on houses arrests and evergreen had human cargo on board to be trafficked, massive press cover up ?
@@SD-li9g correct.They are going Down.
@@SD-li9g True!! Either this guy has no clue what really happened as to why the ship got stuck in the Suez Canal or else he's just not being honest with us. That ship was remotely controlled by another source!
Very Cool Alfie. Congratulations on your accomplishment to be 2nd officer on any ship.
btw im loving's the time chapters!!!
😂 just for you!
In USN terms that ship is 200 feet longer than a Nimitz class aircraft carrier. Wow!
The USS New Jersey Chanel pointed out that, loaded, it displaces more than the entire Iowa class!
@@edevans5991 The Yamato had only 1 quarter the displacement of the Ever Given 🤣
Good to hear the view from an export. Happy to see you discuss this (and any) ship/sea related subject. Learned a lot. Thanks.
Alfie, another great video, thanks! 👍 Very informative, helpful and easy to understand. The video showing just how the vessel was coming into and moving through the canal was super cool! Till your next video- stay well! 👍
Great and informative video, its great to understand exactly what happened and and the lead up to it as all the press keep on saying was that it was windy. Your clips of the ship going into the canal was particularly useful to watch as it clearly showed that the ship was having problems right from the start.
Been waiting for this! Thanks so much for the insider perspective, explained so concisely.
The 3D animation felt like I was playing Mario Kart in Discovery Zone with the kids. But much bigger OOPSIE. Great explanation, Alfie. Thx
what a crisis . thanks for the info, it was nice to hear from your perspective!!
Thanks ever so much for this video. I found it extremely interesting. I was eager to know how this ship got stuck in the canal. Please keep us updated. Highly appreciated. Thank you once again.
Great information. Thank you for taking the time to research and explain.
Glad to see you are back. Thanks for sharing.
Very informative! I've not been watching the news about it so thank you for the updates! Quite interesting to hear the decisions made even though they were aware of the conditions 🤔 I'm enjoying your captures of the views at the end of your videos it's so nice to see! X
One of your best videos to date, very informative for us civilians.
Thank you Alfie. Enjoyed your explanation about this event. Helped to educate me.
That was awesome! So interesting. I have been on many, many cruises and it always amazes me how the crew navigates the ship - specially when docking and leaving! Thank you for sharing.
The crew never "navigates" a ship in harbour. It is done by the harbour pilots.
@@dmannevada5981 interesting . . . Especially since I have watched ships move to dock at the pier and then move away from the pier and the is no pilot boat in sight!
@@lovecruisin6457 Nope, your eyes deceive you. Btw, you wouldn't see the pilot boat as that boat has since long moved away. The pilot boat doesn't sit around waiting for a ship to get clearance, it has other pilots to transport.
Alfie, what a great video. Excellent explanation on the incident in the Suzel Canal. You explained everything so well. Thank you. Take care,
Thanks for the in-depth details of the incident. You made it easy to understand for a non-mariner. Take care. More sunrises and/or sunsets are appreciated,, one of the things I miss a lot bout cruising. Stay safe.
Thank you so very much for the superb reporting. Bravo !!
Excellent and informative presentation as usual. TA!! My memory of Suez Canal is getting my brand new shoes swiped from the changing room. Pls take care of yourself, be safe and keep up the great work.
Thanks for the explanation and the beautiful sunset at the end. Can’t wait to cruise again from Australia.
Cheers brother you are certainly dedicated and this is my first view and happy to like and subscribe🤙 I always respect and support good content!!!
Alfie, thank you. That’s was a great video, very interesting!
Thanks Alfie for the great video and information. I saw on the news tonight that the vessel is finally free. Stay safe. Best wishes, John PS I miss cruising.
Thanks for the video and the info! Appreciate your videos!!!
Thanks Alfie for your informative input on the Ever Given. Used to sail on those big box boats also passed through Suez Canal many times.
I am really glad you posted this - I was going crazy from my own curiosity over this ship!
Well you are certainly not hearing the truth here on this channel! That ship got stuck in the Suez Canal because it was remotely Guided by another source in order to show the public who are in a coma what is really happening in this world with human trafficking and other things. Perhaps there were lots of vaccines on board that expired by a certain time and date and then they couldn't be used to harm us?
@@metalman69201 it was only yesterday that I noticed the aircraft carrier "Eisenhower" entered the canal... interesting tidbit, isn't it?
Brilliant information. Thanks for sharing
Most comprehensive account of the incident yet, thank you
Glad to see the Master Cruise Ship Officer Back! Thanks for the Video. Greetings from Western,Ky U.S.A.
Thanks Alfie.. Top effort telling what the hell happened here.. Well Done..
CAPITALISM did this.
In all these crises....if CAPITALISM is to blame, everyone should be honest about it.
IRRESPONSIBLE GREED caused them to be reckless and enter on a super-windy day.
Every other ship should sue the F outta the capitalists who did this.
I have learnt a few things watching your video. Thanks. Very interesting and informative.
Что это видео забыло в плейлисте Антона про криминальную Россию ?
I loved the sunset at the end. Great video - very interesting.
Wow… Thank you Alfie ...for the excellent description of this incident… And in plain English also😂Looking forward to your next video… Keep up the good work and stay safe… All the best 🇬🇧🇨🇦🇬🇧🇨🇦
Best explanation I've seen thank you so much
Great insights. Thanks for this!
I truly enjoyed this video with such precise explanations, made me feel like a maritime student. I am happy that the container ship has since been dislodged but it's amazing knowing that the ripple effects of this disruption will be felt for such a long time.
I believe you gave us an unbiased explanation, much better than so many others just blaiming. Thank you
most informed video to date! Thanks Bro!
What a brilliant set of vids, thanks for posting Alfie. MORE PLEASE.
You explain and illustrate this issue as clear as could be; and with the experience which counts.
I've had lots of links with the sea All Dads side were of the sea One friend was 3rd Engineer with Harrison Line. [ Liverpool - USA]. A great life for a young'n.
I once had the pleasure of meeting another 3rd Engineer, who'd spent eight days in an open boat during Battle of the Atlantic.
Great professional info Alfie
So interesting! Thanks Alfie!
I feel so sorry for the crew, even if turns out they screwed up. Can you imagine? 🤯
I had a project in the 00'ties, designing and engineering the propulsion system to a chemical tanker, and some time after the vessel was put in to operation it almost crashed into a harbour, and I visited the vessel some time later, then the chief-engineer told me he had trown himself to the floor and prayed to the virgin maria to help him, and the captain could not talk for 2 hours after the incident, and the chief engineer was crying with tears when he told me, we can laugh and make jokes, but for seamen I think this is not such a fun topic
Don’t feel sorry for them the Captain has been arrested, and CST is dark and ugly
@@xvsupremacy7190 I wonder why the captain would be arrested...it's the pilot that has complete control of the ship, and becomes the "captain" once he/she boards the ship. The actual ships captain doesn't make any decisions as to when the ship enters the canal, speed or anything else once the pilot takes over...which these pilots go through extensive training in Egypt.
Great video! Thanks for sharing your thoughts!
Thank you for your very interesting and informative information on the canal situation. I became interested in the Suez Canal after having made one trip through the Panama Canal and one trip into the Panama Canal on cruise ships. I was talking to the captain of a wide cruise ship that could not have made it through the Panama Canal old locks so when he said that they had been in Australia and at the time of my trip we were out of Miami I asked him how they got where we were and he said Suez Canal and immediately I knew I wanted to go see the Suez canal in person. I'm hoping the trip that I've signed up to do that on in November of this year gets to go. So I really enjoyed your informative information peace and have shared your video with a bunch of my friends who I think would also be interested in it. So thank you for making such interesting videos.
So glad I listened to this. Great explanation. THANKYOU!!! I’m now a subscriber. Looking forward to future posts. 👍👌💪
Thanks Scott. Welcome to the channel
Thanks for the information! Princess is my Favorite cruise line !🥰
Was on Regal Princess February 2020 for the vow renewal with Captain Stubing of the Love Boat 😍
Like your content 👍. My father was a second generation seaman. I didn't follow his path but the sea always calls my name. I do many cruises and in my day piloted a 78 foot dive boat on many occasions.
Thank you very much for your detailed information. I think you are right in saying the decision that it was safe to enter given the strong winds was a mistake.
My husband was in the navy for 21 years and he agreed with everything you said. Interesting thanks for the information.
Thank you for the video and the explanation.
It's a bloody miracle anything at all makes it from point A to point B.
Awesome info. Thanks
Thankyou for a balanced and well presented info session.
I can tell you are good sailor as you are calm and humble and present facts in a clear concise and understandable manner.
I would be pleased to be a passenger on ship you were crewing.
PS Feel free to add this to your resume 😇😇😇
Great explanation for what happened to the Ever Given. Very much appreciate it.
This was a great explanation. Thank you.
That 3D image is awesome. I am a map man and that graphic is very helpful.
Thank you Alfie great explanation..
Very educational video. Thanks.
I travelled through the Suez Canal in 1967 on the Fairstar, leaving Southhampton on March 14 (5yo) enroute to Australia. We were the second last passenger vessel to go though the canal prior to it closing due to gulf crisis later that year. We could not dock at either Pt Said or Aden, which was planned, and even being so little I remember the gun boats circling our ship. I thought it was exciting, my parents were scared. .
After that all migrant vessels had to travel round the long way. I’ve watched many videos on the canal because of the connection, and been interested in this event for the same reason.
Thanks for the most informative and impartial roundup of this event.
In retrospect this was a great explanation and I especially appreciate how the guy acknowledges and explains how he re-set his initial conclusions as to the cause studying the events and circumstances - that's the mark of wisdom. The only shortcoming, and this is in retrospect, is that he probably didn't give sufficient consideration to the power of the tides - especially at the time - to lend a helping hand in perhaps freeing the vessel sooner than his estimate may otherwise have been.
The explanations of bank and "squat" effects were fascinating and very well done by this fellow. As an aviator, I can appreciate the influence of these phenomena, which appear to be akin to wing loading as well as ground effect.
I'm actually glad I didn't watch this when it was published because then I would have been less inclined to take the under on a 3:1 over/under bet for a release as of mid-day Monday (Pacific Time) - as it turns out - I woke up Monday morning having won the bet.
Super interesting. Great job!
Very interesting. My other half will like to see this. He got his Masters Certificate with Shell back in the 70s and travelled the world but strangely he never went through the suez, more the Panama Canal. We did go through it on P&O Oceana leading about 21 vessels - great experience.
Im glad I got recommended this!
Really interesting info. Many thanks
Well said with excellent graphics!
Thank you very much for this Alfie. Now I understand 💡the hydrodynamics 🙂 . The bank and squat effects work in the same manner as lift does with aircraft aerofoils because of the fluid flow.
Well done!
Very interesting. Thanks for sharing.
Fantastic explanation thank you.
I've been an aero enthusiast most of my life. Bank effect (It seems) works a lot like lift on a wing.
Also some racing cars use ground effect to suck the car down onto the road, affording moe grip and cornering speed.
In NASCAR drivers race as close as possible to the wall & other cars to reduce drag. It's all very similar fluid dynamics.
On the ship (in this example) the drag differential exerts a turning force on the ship, I'm only guessing but, I think the force is rotational because the bank is not perfectly straight, I think (although I might have my brain in backwards) if the bank were completely straight and the ship parallel with it, rather than rotate the ship, the bank would pull the ship in.
Helicopters suffer a similar issue when operating near structures or cliffs. Mountain rescue pilots for example have to compensate for the wash coming back off the cliff whilst rescuing climbers.
Great information! Thank you. I've been wondering how she got in that fix!
What a huge amount of vessels at sea... thanks for video
Always find your videos interesting 😊 I would love to see a video with a detailed explanation about the ranks onboard a cruse ship.
On ferry’s that I have worked on, their have bin only 3-4 bridge officers. So when you have 3 stripes I think chief officer and second in command 😊
Thanks Alfie for all the videos, Hope to see you when we go in August 6 cruise X135N lets hope
Great video thanks for the info 👍🏻👍🏻🚢🚢
Seen an article in the news somewhere that the US Navy might be helping trying to get the Ever Given out I might be wrong but that was what I read. It is so interesting to see you take on it someone with your experience and I hope they can get her out though and I found this so interesting though. Stay safe Alfie take care too
Very interesting. Thank you.
Thank Alfi for explaining your perspective on the Evergreen vessel
Thanks for the thorough explanation. Been keeping track of this event. So unfortunate. Love your channel content. You didn't mention higher tides. Is that something we can hope for?
Thank you I enjoyed your video from New Zealand
Very well explained, actually My passion is aviation but this video was well documented. Again Thankyou
I too came from the aviation side
“Hey I bet you can’t turn the ship around while we are in this canal.”
“Hold my coffee!”
shes coming about!
or beer. Hahaha
Lol
I wonder how it was EVER GIVEN permission to enter the canal.
Please tip your waiters.
Some ships are even bigger than the Ever Given and they passed through the Suez Canal.
@@renataostertag6051 My key point is; Did they pass through under similar weather conditions?
Well, Ever Given is only the 13th largest containership in the world so bigger ships do cross the channel daily.

He is Dr John Campbell of Ships I guess, here to enlighten us.

Love your video’s Alfie. 👍
I just stumbled on this page from the Internet Historian --> SailorVince --> to this guy... and what an absolutely perfect channel name...
Great breakdown.
Please keep them coming
Hi, records show that, at the time of the incident, the Ever Given was heading almost due North at about 15 mph, and also that the wind speed was 25 mph and gusting to 50 mph from the south. This would indicate that the vessel would experience actual winds of about 10-35 mph from the stern.
In this situation the large side sail area would not be a factor unless the wind suddenly veered through 90 degrees (say) and gusted athwartships.
What the records indicate and what the ship actually experienced may be at variance but hopefully the VDR (black box), which records real time wind speed and direction at the ship, will tell investigators what happened.
Regards
Thanks Rhonda. As I mentioned in the video I believe it was a combination of bank effect and winds. It is likely the bank effect pushed the bow out, giving the wind position on the stbd quarter and eventually just aft of the beam which with 40-50 kt gusts has serious consequences. We will see what the report says when it is eventually released.
Hi, you might be right about that.
Regards
