      @@BillClinton228 apart from superstition. Many women are just as qualified as men in the trades needed to run a ship.
      I see no issues with women working on ships

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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.

    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.
