4:06 Comically wide ship, that sounds like meme material right there.

I'm starting education towards becoming a ship captain and this is very informative and interesting. Thanks for the content!
I'm just curious, where do you go to study that?
Good luck with your training Adrian
@@jamesm2785 maritime academy's there are many around the world and on both coasts of the US
@@jamesm2785 Ship school.
@@thereissomecoolstuff thanks!
I'm not a ship or a maritime person, but I'm binge watching all of your videos
Glad you are enjoying them Rafale
Likewise man. There's just something so intrinsically badass about having a well versed knowledge of the sea, ships and sailing and so on. So cool...
Same. I don't even really like ship's but this channel has made me appreciate them.
Another configuration sometimes used is a joystick type control - where the rudders, engines, and bowthruster all act independently under computer control to move the ship where you want.
Naturally, being one trained on twin screw CPP, I much prefer berthing via walking the ship using engines and BT!
That's how flight controls works too on a plane!
@@topethermohenes7658 On some planes yes, not all.

@@topethermohenes7658 All Airbus planes, and Boeing 777 and newer are Fly By Wire, but far from “all” in general.
Hey can I get some passangers?
only a shipful
*Comically wide ship docks*
That comically wide ship actually made me chuckle.
Lets all appreciate the immense amount of work that must get into making these (fantastic) video’s.
Love them allmost every time!
Cheers Christiaan
I never noticed the sound effects before, but they are a really nice touch!
In 20 episodes he'll be teaching us how to build warships, then he'll have his own Navy to rule the seas
When there's a new Casual Navigation video it doesn't matter what you're currently watching. You click on it.
Thanks Riley. Its great to have your support
@@CasualNavigation You've earned it! I don't support those that aren't worth my time.
Comically large ship!
Not so, actually only a third of what the ship size is. Oasis of the seas parks on that berth regularly and doesn't really fit
Alternatively and more practically, use a catamaran.
Only a ship full😩
Absolutely great Videos! I'm a boat driving teacher (small boats) in Switzerland and love to refer to your Videos, when I get asked about bigger ships! Thank you so much!
Thanks Marc. Its great to hear the content is useful
One of the many, many things I love about your channel is the attention to detail. White Star Pier 54, nicely done
Thanks Will. Top marks for noticing 👍
therapist: comically wide ship isn't real, it can't hurt you
the *thicc* ship: 4:06
LMAO
When I was a towboat pilot, we didn't have a bow thruster, but you could walk directly sideways because we had flanking rudders in addition to our normal rudders.

I literally clicked off a history guy video for this.
Clicked off of Historia Civillis for this.
I finished a Jack Rackam video before this.
Clicked off Lindybeige
And I watched that VASAviation's video 20 minutes before this and recognized your avatar. The small world of popular RUclips videos...
I clicked off a life noggin one for this
Yo so I’m a senior sea cadet in my corps and I staff at a lot of sail weekend so the small/single propeller boat maneuvering was big help. I’d like to thank you for that video.
Thank you.
Glad it was useful Liam
Great video that shows all concepts fantastically but just one thing. I sailed with one of the big name cruise lines coming into Port everglades on a weekly basis. The berth where this cartoon ship was parking, there is no hope of fitting 3 cruise ships there end to end. I remember Oasis of the seas used to tie up on that berth when we were there and that single ship hardly fitted on its own. Apart from that, great video.
Haha. Thanks Conor. I should have mentioned it wasn't meant to be to scale.
the graphics combined with the music just gives of that suspense and excitement vibe..
I’m a pilot student and this is still intresting to learn
Parking parallel? Better: berthing( or mooring) alongside. Thank you for your videos. They are amazing.
Is this how I do it?
*_deja vu!_*
KANSEI DORIFTO!
I had no idea I was so interested in shipping. Thank you.
I have still have a question, what if your ship only has one bow thruster and one screw configuration with one rudder on a small sailing boat? How is someone supposed to parallel park something with the same elegance as the examples you have given? Thanks big fan of your work!
Thanks That Guy. Check out my video on Left Handed ships. I describe a little bit of single screw ship handling
While I haven't seen the video he suggests, there are things you can do that will work quite well. I have three sailboats and not one has a bow thruster. On the other hand you can use prop walk to help you dock. The best thing you can do is to practice. While I can't parallel park most of the time, I can dock it with no issues the vast majority of the time. As he mentions in this video, weather, and currents depending upon where you are docking may cause problems, in which case you may need the assistance of someone on the pier.
Most of the time you don't need to parallel park. By the way, it is a well known rule that the more people are watching, the more something will go wrong! Good luck with your docking!
@@CasualNavigation Have you done a video on azipods too please? :) Love your channel thanks!
We have a single screw boat with a bow thruster. To move (say) sideways to the left, first turn the rudder to full right. Give a squirt of forward throttle which, with the rudder set right will kick the stern to the left. At the same time apply bow thruster left to counteract the turning motion from the rudder. So now the boat is moving left. It’s also moving a little forward now, so then apply a squirt of reverse. No need to adjust the rudder (still full right) because it has almost no effect in reverse (see casual navigation video as to why). Repeat this cycle of forward/thruster/reverse to continue moving left. Presto! I find it easier than reverse parallel parking in my car!
you can use "back and fill". alternate quickly between "right rudder astern engine" and "left rudder forward engine" or vice versa depending on which way you want to go, you use stored momentum from turning, switch gears, and turning the opposite direction cancels much of the momentum fore and aft, leaving you with a turning moment and some transverse force. you can pivot turn a single screw, it's just hard
I have a playlist for some amazing informative videos and your videos always end up getting in it.
This is great. I've always wondered about this stuff when taking ferries.
Why do I find these so interesting? Another inexplicably fascinating video about large ships. Thank you 👍
Thanks dirty pure. Glad you enjoyed it
Fascinating info! Very glad you are posting videos again!
Thanks a bunch..your videos make things more comprehendable!
I noticed the animations and sound effects improved a lot. I can tell your putting in more time great work man.
As always, very interesting and informative!
Glad you enjoyed it
I have no idea how i got here, but I've watvhed like 25 videos and I love it!
There’s just something beautiful about piloting a massive piece of machinery like it was a feather on the wind.
The skill of the helmsmen. 😚 👌
Many smaller ships with no bow thruster still have to walk into docks just using 2 rear thrusters and it’s a nice practice to see. So much skill goes into.
Your videos are always excellent!
Great video! I'm going to definitely keep this in mind next time I take my cruise ship for a spin!
The music for that parallel parking explanation got me over hyped for parallel parking, man
Hi there, I loved the video! I would love to see a video in the future comparing different propulsion systems: Maybe propeller vs Waterjet vs Voith Schneider comparing their strengths and weaknesses! More advanced ship handling videos (if there are more advanced techniques) would also be very interesting! Keep up the great work!
That was very well explained. The graphics were great. Thank you for sharing this with us.
These videos are terrific. Thank you.
Very informative and interesting video as always, I really enjoy learning about ships now thanks to you! I didn't know this stuff was interesting to me 😂 keep up the good work on your channel
Thanks for the well thought out description and excellent animation. I learned a lot!
When did I suddenly start having an insatiable interest in boats? I can't stop watching this guy. First I just innocently clicked on a video about how anchors work and now I can't stop. Good show old chap.
Very good clean stuff. Thank you.
Excellent graphics in this episode, maybe your best yet!
Instant click on every single one of your videos, and I'm never disappointed quite the contrary. I sure loved the sight of the Armorique!
Terrific work as usual 👍
Thank you
Thanks Guillaume. Glad you enjoyed it
Thank you for all your witty contents!
I love your videos. Please keep them coming. You're very talented!
Amazing video and great explanation, thank you very much!
I watched all, I didn't know that I needed to know this, now i want more.
Very amazing video. Best of luck for the future videos
Very good thanks. ✅
I really enjoy this channel, I hope it will have a steady growth!
Cheers MrAchile13
I'm starting education towards becoming ship captain and this very informative and interesting . Thanks for the content!
Thanks for the video. This'll come in handy when I end up piloting a cruise ship at some point in my life
Love your videos so much I watch them all the time keep making these types of videos
I love the epic music near the end
Great video! Keep it up
Extremely well done and easy to understand!
everybody: comically w i d e ship
*w i d e* putin is on that ship.
I love this channel so much.
Thanks Name not found
Great Video. Thanks for creating such great content!
Cheers Chris
This video was especially well done 👍 thank you
Audio in this video is superb!
All my respect for you captains out there!
Very nicely done!
00:12 am, this is a good time to learn about this!
Great video!
An in-depth video on pivot points would be really useful. How and why they move, etc.
Loving the content.
Always fascinates me the way ships turn. Great video. Hey ever cover Car Ferries?
Nice video and channel you have, I'm also a marine pilot but still enjoy watching these kind of videos :)
Thanks John. Glad to have you here
love the sound effect when switching to the azimuth propeller!
Another amazing video! Keep it up!
Thanks Bobs Gaming Extravaganza
This is a very useful video. I'll watch this before buying some cruise ships,
excellent channel with easy to understand animations
Thanks Humza
Very nice video!
I love how it was set at pev. Very informative
I was on a smallish cruise ship (700 passengers) and the captain had to dock with a strong wind blowing it onto the dock. He dropped the bow anchor short of the dock to help control the drift and to pull the boat off the dock in case the bow thrusters couldn’t handle it.
Very interesting. After a lifetime of watching the ferries in New Orleans dock, I always wondered how they moved them sideways. I didn’t know about the side thrusters. Figured it worked like a giant Jet Ski.
As you get close to the dock you can throw a line and get your bow and stern cables attached. Then kedging or warping. Once even one is attached IMHO it can be used to pull or help offset some fore-aft movement.
could you make a video explaining what is a port of registration,which country is the most popular for registered a ship and why?
I love the fact that its was a tutorial style video like we will drive a big ship in short time
Great video!
Funny how this was recommend to me now
The details in your videos, you make cargo ships sail to/from Rotterdam port and the cruise ships from England.
Missed your videos!!
chanced upon this video. I learnt something new. Liked & subsrcibed
This channel is exemplary.
very educative video good job man! I learned alot how to make ship go to the side, not i need to try it in a ship simulator
All those screws, propellers and thrusters nowadays. My dad used to sail on inland waters mostly in Germany, Switzerland, Belgium and the Netherlands with a ship of around 100 meter and all they would have was one thruster (screw) at the back and a rudder. Nothing at the bow. Yet, they were perfectly fine docking their ship every time. Heck, they would even dock their ship in places where other captains actually needed a propellor at the bow.
This might have to do with skill and experience though. He started on his own tow boat around age 13 and had his own ship around age 20. By then he had sailed most of his life (they also lived on the ship before entering school life age) so one could say that it was his natural instinct. Even decades after he went ashore to work at locks, he was still perfectly able to dock boats skilfully without any training in the meanwhile. It’s a bit like riding a bike: you just never grow over it. It always stays in your system.
ooooo the end bit is very relevant at the moment haha
Amazing machines!
It is a good bit more difficult with a single screw frigate. Amazing things can be done with spring lines and fenders. That is some serious ship handling.
I tend to see ships with stern thrusters, but it's really cool to see how those with just split screws and bow thrusters can maneuver just as well.
I’m reading The Alexander Inheritance by Eric Flint, it’s about a cruise ship that gets sent back in time to the Mediterranean Sea right after Alexander the Great died. At one point they get attacked by the local navy so they just hit reverse and smash the hell out of the enemy ship.
Great and informative video! It seems i am not alone in liking this technical ship content. Can you in the future do a more in depth video about a ships engine system, like main motor startup procedure and support systems? How do seagoing carriers generate freshwater? How can subsea vessels make a hole in the ship (moonpool) without sinking? Different hull designs (UT, wave piercers, catamarans etc)
Keep up the good videos!
Thanks for the suggestions. A few of those would make great topics
I love your channel, this stuff is so interesting! And to think, cruise ships at their vast scale use pretty much the same techniques as tiny little pleasure craft.
It's becoming kind of standard to have a bow thruster these days, but in the olden days you only had a single engine with fixed propellor and 1 rudder. Manouvring that into a berth is only possible by clever use of mooring lines during the manouvre.
Hi @@martijnheil8825 I know just what you mean - a few months ago the bow thruster on our boat failed as we came in to moor at an overnight stop. Our boat has a single engine, a fixed prop and 1 rudder. I spent the evening boning up on the use of mooring lines to get in and out of berths in various situations without a thruster, and then spent the following day doing it for real as we made our way downstream on the Thames, through multiple locks toward our home berth. I was a sweaty mess by the end of the day, but also pleased to have managed the Old School techniques without smashing the boat to pieces. I am pleased to have the bow thruster back in operation, though secretly smug that I managed without it for a day!
Fluid dynamics is black magic
Good knowledge
Awesome content matey large F keep it up I hope you didn't stop making content
I was once doing an escort of one of the larger military sealift command ships out of Pearl Harbor (dont remember which one, but it had a ramp that folded down for vehicles on the aft end if that helps) and as it was making the turn around hospital point the tug on the aft seemed like it was using all its power to keep the ship from atleast side swiping the day marker, let alone scraping the edge of what was dredged. The tug was almost sideways pulling it.
