In this video I break down how do mega ships of 300-400 meters in length arrive at a port and dock at a berth. These man made giants crawl into port at slow speeds and its no easy task to move or spin them around within confined waters.

For a man who works at sea, you sure have an acute knowledge of memes.
We have internet on our ship.
Yeah I like his memes . And videos . I just signed up with SIU Unlicensed apprenticeship program and I'm waiting to go . So I just watch videos everyday
Jeff, you are a breath of fresh air on these types of videos. I have been trying to learn things about shipping for weeks now, but NOBODY gives the information as clear and as simple as 'you' do.
Thank you.
Welcome back from Davy Jone's Locker, Captain Jeff Sparrow..
It's been so long we thought you turned into pirate. What have you been doing?
pirating some extra $$ in somalia, now i am back 😂 Was just distracted by exams, then holiday season (Christmas, new year, chinese new year and general slacking)
JeffHK will you have a video about Somalia? I mean, the phrase “Somali Pirate” is in the American lexicon.
JeffHK Great! Can't wait for your new adventures and maritime awesome knowledge with beautiful shots. 新年快乐
i do have some footage of being skiffs coming near our ship in near gulf of aden, but still need more for a video. Perhaps after next ship
JeffHK So when will you probably upload the next video?
I'm waiting eagerly
Excellent topic well presented, as usual...fantastic photography & editing...thanks! Welcome back shipmate, you were very much missed!
Another highly professional and interesting video Jeff. Hope your career continues to prosper.
I wonder if some day we'll all be able to say that we knew him back when...
You're back. How excited I was to spot your video in my recommendations!
Hey it's been a while since your last episode! I'm a Chief Engineer and I also have my own channel for Seaman Vlogs. Although my topics are more on the lifestyle side like shore leave adventures but I do post a few job-related videos once in a while. I just finished a 7 month contract onboard and now I'm on my vacation. I'm glad you're back!
I am a doctor why I am watching this video oh because it's very interesting and informative thanks for sharing your knowledge.
Hi Doctor Ive had this mole on my butt for the past 3 1/2 years that is 1 cm in diameter and 2 cm of width. Its dark brown and the borders are curvy. I stay out in the sun all day and Ive had my tonsils taken out when I was a kid and I think that mayeb related. I smoke 3 packs of cigarettes a day and have type 2 diabetes. Do you think you could tell me why I feel so depressed lately, I think some hydrocodone would help me.
Im a doctor too and I love huge ships and planes, I want to become a pilot. These videos are really fun with drone view we can appreciate how huge the ships are and how normal operations take place.
@joshua- Get a dermatological consultation to rule out melanoma.
babysdoc hi doctor i constantly spit green/yellow spit what to do? Aside from drinking alot of water?
For Comment Purposes A thick and dark yellow phlegm may be a sign of a viral or bacterial infection, sinus infection, or lower respiratory tract infection. Typically, this occurs when the immune system sends white blood cells, known as neutrophils, to the area of infection. These cells contain a green protein, which, when present in large quantities, turn the mucus into a greenish hue.
Joshua Perkings haha wtf
I'm a Naval Architect and this brings memories of my initial 1 year as a cadet (Nautical Science) before changing course... Very informative video. Kudos
Yes! I've missed your videos!
mouseandelephant me too. Great video!
I study at Maritaim University, Engine Department. I really like this channel ! Thank you so much for video. Hello from Russia, seafarers!
Thanks! You cover topics many want to know about but have no clue as to how it is done. I appreciate this and its fun to watch.
Been waiting on this like it's Mardi grad. Great content love it
Was checking your channel a couple weeks ago, Hadn't seen any new content. Was worried! Glad to know you're doing alright! And didn't stop your amazing content work!
It's good to know that you're back @jeffhk, 'been waiting for your upload ! More uploads!!
Lol at the intro! Altho it was NECESSARY
Great to see you again, really missed you man!
I've been a truck driver for 16 years and I'm sooooo bored with my job! Maritime looks so interesting! Railroading has my attention also, I love being on the go, I hate being in one spot too long so anything in cargo or transportation suits me. Thanks for your videos!
Yesterday I was wondering "wtf has happened to JeffK" and then the very next day you post a video. Awesome!
OUR LORD IS BACK!!!!
The king is back!
🙏🙏🙏
Awww yissss a new JeffHK upload! So weird I was wondering what happened to you. Glad to see your back.
Glad you're back! Missed your informative vlogs!
Very informative and entertaining video! As a fan of automated mooring, I would just like to point out that the MoorMaster system featured 35s into the video actually handles tide and waves better than ropes, keeping the vessel more stable while also mooring in less than 30 seconds at the push of a button. If anyone wants to know more, feel free to reach out!
The system of mooring robots attach with vacuum pads to the hull and control the position of the vessel with hydraulic actuation. By controlling the forces in surge and sway while letting the vessel float freely in heave, the system is subject to less forces than if there were ropes and the advanced control system keeps the vessel stable.
The system also moors the vessel in less than 30 seconds and releases in 15 seconds (compared to somewhere around 20 minutes to moor the ship with mooring lines) at the push of a button. In this way, the system also keeps everyone safe, eliminating snap-back zones.
On a side-note: really love the memes :-)
A video showing the MoorMaster system (which could really use some JeffHK meme expertise) is available here: ruclips.net/video/CZreelrGPng/видео.html
I LOVE your videos; you put in sooo much effort in every video and I really like sailing myself and your videos made me want to go on such a ship and travel around with it.
YES!!!!!!! WELCOME BACK! We've all been missing you! Awesome Video, as always! Keep up the amazing work!
Welcome back! Always love your videos. Brings back memories.
Holy crap. It's the Prodigal son. he's back. :D strange as it may seem...WE MISSED your VLOG. Welcome back.
JeffHK - these are great! I know you don't get to see a lot of it, but I'd be curious how terminal ops work - once the can is off the boat, the stacking, out gate, etc - also what's the differences between automated and non-automated ports with regard to turn time and speed.
Good to have you back, been looking forward to your videos!
Great videos you've made JeffHK, very well produced. Only started watching a few the past day. They're very Interesting, even for a non-shipping person.
From 12,000 subscribers to 132,000 is less than one year.
Now that is impressive!
2:21 are you on the OOCL Hong Kong now? If so CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!!! That’s my dream ship that I really hope to work on
Thanks jeff for inspiring us with your videos, just dont stop making videos, it helps a lot
Best Valentines Day ever! New vid from Jeff!
Long time...yo
Just discovered this channel and I've been laughing my ass off. Great video
welcome onboard!
I am going on my first trip thats 6 months with Onassis company as a learning officer.i remember watching your videos 8 months back thinking i would never do this job and here i am now.I know its a hard job away from your family but its 100% worth it.Also you are amazing and your videos helped me a lot.may you always have safe seas my friend.
I love your videos! I just wanted to encourage you to make more. I find them really fascinating!
Here...Here...I concur.
“Sir, The ports to small we can’t dock the ship!”
“This is impossible Captain!”
“Negative it’s necessary.”
*docking Intensifies*
Also I know this was posted like a year ago still gonna comment for the good vid.
I live on the coastline of Somalia and enjou your content. If you ever pass by please let me know so that me and my friends can come aboard to say hi.
Somalia is a bit dangerous tho
@@JeffHK Lol! Am kidding. I know that. Even though the multinational maritime force has greatly reduced thw incidents of piracy in the coast of Somalia there's still danger. Anyway, hope you continue making this incredible videos. Stay Safe.
Look at me, *I'm the Captain now*
@@imanrayyan4894 The most memorable part of the whole movie. 👏🏼
Glad your back. Love to see more of your time lapse work.
I appreciate the high quality shots you get, good stuff!
I wish to be your cadet for next 2 years😄
Hey Jeff, love your videos! I know this is weird but I wonder if there is any occasion where you need to moor one ship to another? And if there is a scenario to dock/connect two ships together, what would be the best method to do that?
Love your sense of humor about the speed of docking. Nice use of other video clips as well.
YES!!!! You're back!
Who needs to study nautic in an university if you have Jeff?
Du auch?
Ich spiele mit dem Gedanken daran Nautik zu studieren, weis aber nicht on mir das Studium überhaupt taugen würde :/
"2000 years later" . holy shit that was funny :-)> thumbs up for doing this jeff , thnx .
Yeah ! You're back. Awesome video as usual ! Thanks for it...
I cant imagine a better and more fun video explanation than this. Enjoyed very much
THE AGE OF LINES IS DRAWING TO ITS CLOSE! Now, the next generation of automated mooring is here: ruclips.net/video/j21xlat5tzo/видео.html
Since years MoorMaster moors vessels in just 30 seconds and handles waves/wind/tide better than mooring lines. Now the next generation comes with a smaller footprint and faster installation allowing easy introduction at most berths across the world!
Wow, the difference between current mooring and Moor Master is very very large! Thank for posting Nicklas!
The future is autonomous vessels. That’s for sure. Can you imagine mooring lines on an autonomous ship? THERE IS NO ONE ON BOARD! MoorMaster NxG is here!
Fun Fact: OOCL HK is one of the largest container ships in the world. This guy has a cool job. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OOCL_Hong_Kong
To be honest there is very very little between all the big ships in size, only thing that differs is capacity.
Soooooo glad to see you return, it's been a long while.
I missed your uploads! Glad you're back!
Have you ever visited Fremantle Port western Australia?
I lived in perth for a whole year 😆studied at fremantle for my class 3 license!
was there in the Navy. Good times, friendly people!
Why the term "port" and "starboard"? Do the ships dock/berth/moor on the Port side only? No, right?
In aviation, the Port side is for passengers, and Starboard for cargo and other stuff. How/Why is it in maritime?
there is no preference in maritime, completely depends on the port
As near as I can find online, the origins of the terms relate to docking and steering.
Early sailing ship designs would not have a steering rudder on their centreline coming out the back end of the ship, but rather a less sophisticated steering oar hanging out off the right hand side of the ship (right hand side possibly due to right handedness being more common). With the steering oar getting in the way of the right hand side, these ships would always have to dock and thus unload cargo on their left hand side.
The right hand side was called 'starboard', likely coming from Old Norse language's stýri (steer) and borð (side of ship). The left hand side came to be known as 'larboard' from Middle English laderbord - lade (load) and borð (side of ship).
Eventually ship designs modernised to have rudders on the centreline out the back so docking became feasible on either side, but the names stuck. Finally, since 'starboard' and 'larboard' sound so similar, to avoid confusion English speaking Navies like England and America decided to drop the cargo related term 'larboard' in favour of the already in use French term 'port', the place you docked at. :)
Oh, wow! Thank you so much... I didn't know any of this, at all... Kudos!
Also, right and left are relative. Port and starboard are fixed for a boat/ship (left and right when facing the bow).
Wow the channel lives! Thanks for coming back Jeff. Your video masterpieces reflect much effort, humour and education.
I would love to see more timelapse cruises maybe showing movement in swells and weather. Also like to see more on radio and radar and satellite communication. It really doesn’t matter what because I enjoy all that you have done.
No words Jeff, as usual.
Thks you are back again...
Please make some 360 degree video I love them
I am seriously think that you get stranded some where
I'm so glad to see you're back. And you even put Seattle into your video!
Welcome back JeffHK! missed your videos!
Glad you are posting again!
Love the humor in this video! Informational and entertaining. Wish you could upload more frequently
Great vids man.. Been a seaman for a long time. Great for someone to accumulate the knowledge with the actual video aspect to share in a layman way to the non sailor. Excellent work sir
Good to see you back! Your videos are interesting and calming to some degree. Keep it up.
Thanks for coming back
Iam very happy to see your video
Was just wondering about you and your channel Jeff, glad to see you're back
Welcome back! Love your videos and so do my kids. Very educating and my son now wants to be a Mariner.
Good to see you back. I look forward to your stuff and it's been a very long time...
Finally you're back again🙌🙌🙌
Insane quality and very informative, I really liked the memes also! Glad to see your videos are back.
WOO JEFF IS BACK

Welcome back! we missed you!
You are one of the best (if not, the best) person that is extremely informative about aspects in the maritime career field!!!
Yeah boy happy to see u back
Glad to see new content. Well done as usual!
Thank you for these videos! They are very fascinating. I've subscribed and I can't wait to see what you produce next. Your editing and camera work is on-point! Fantastic. Love your commentary and your presentment.
It's very nice to see information about a subject where the person is in it. Thanks for sharing!
AWESOME!!!!!!!!!! Jeff is back!!!
I’ve missed your vids. Good to see you back.
Hey jeff!! i'm an apprentice deck cadet and your video has been really motivation, assisting with mooring operations is one of my weak areas, when ever the officers give me a chance to over see the mooring at the aft station i get a bit intimidated and loose my cool, but i'm definitely working on it so i'm looking to improve on it really soon
Cheers!! :-)
Yo you still alive! Good to see!
Hi Jeff ! Been missing your videos; can't wait for the next one ! And thanks for this one !!!
congrats!!!! To 5.1 million views on 30 day time lapse video !Love from India ... You are such a great inspiration 😍😍 to all sailor ... Love you sir !!!!
yes. thank you Jeff HK for this. I live in a port city & one of my fave things is sitting on the river & watching the big ships come & go. After watching "Captain Phillips" over & over, I realize what you go through. thank you. we really L♡VE your videos! 😆
