I was on USS Eisenhower running North from Hurricane Hugo (Cat4). We were taking waves over the bow. That storm chased us up the Eastern Seaboard to Nova Scotia. On an aircraft carrier that means 60-70ft swells. Every last hatch and door was secured, even the broken ones. Nothing was left loose, every object was a potential missile. Only critical watch stations were manned. The mess decks served box lunches. It was unsafe to operate the cooking equipment due to the pitching and rolling of the ship.
I was on a tin can in ‘66, South China Sea off the coast of Nam, carrier was taking ‘green water’ on the flight deck, we were ‘plowing’ up to the signal bridge. Thanksgiving meal was cold Roast Beef sandwiches

same here I've seen waves come over the bow of the Enterprise on South China Sea
Must a Been Fun ! 😄😃😎
scary
How not to sink in a storm? Turn bow into the on- coming waves- something that has been know for ages!
Yes, but not to the US navy😂😂😂
I was expecting a little more detail on ship design? I know that we don’t want to expose our technical details to our enemy but it would have been interesting.
,
The British Navy has got a brilliant idea on how not to sink .It’s called don’t let the water come in .Works great
Even british sinks have sunk over the past 500 years.
@@peterhamlinhamlin8908 British ships were sinking before america was a thing
i bet they keep the windows and storm doors locked
The British have had vessels sailing all bodies of water for centuries longer than the U. S. A.
I personally would think their idea of keeping water out of a ship as a way to avoid sinking should be seriously considered.
@@TexasVernonyeah the HMS hood is a prime example!!😂😂😂
Been in many storms and the Royal Navy, always makes it out💪
Mmmm, you ACC don't seem to be doing so well😂
@@allanrichts7620 What's an ACC?
I watched this whole video and I did not see any techniques about not sinking a ship. Only weather related services.
Same here. Irritating
1:16 covered basics
Right!?!? This is not the first video of theirs that was "mislabeled"...
More comments more money.
They always do this, they Flucked us again.
My first tour (1970) in the South China Sea aboard the USS Anchorage we encounter 4 Typhoons. One of the waves
tore the life rafts off of the ship 60 feet above the water line.
Very good thanks from hamou fahem Algeria

You did not show US Navy Ships Special Techniques to not Sink During Storm, only maintenance and other activities. Just sad.
Hmm 🤔
I still have the same nightmare of being in a bad storm while serving on USS Belleau Wood LHA-3. The ship rolled so far and stayed there at the edge of capsizing for so long that I was nearly paralyzed with fear. In the hangar bay, the chains holding down the harriers and helicopters creaked and groaned under the intense strain. When she recovered from that roll I never doubted her again.
But no seamen no matter how experienced wants to be on a sinking ship.
What year? I was on the Belleau Wood in 93 she took on 30foot was and still kept going.
@@rodolfomendez6886 I was there shipmate. She was an amazing ship 🚢. Greatest time of my life by far. Were you there when we got caught on the WW2 submarine net in Subic Bay? So many good times. Salute Belleau Wood!
Aye!
Mainly everyone just holds their breaths extra big when the ship smacks down on the waves. This makes it 3X as bouyuant compared to if they put their life jackets on during a storm and they can still move around a lot easier in the hallways.
Also, no flatulence allowed during those critical moments, for the same reason.
I am a US Navy and I am terrified to ride cruise ships because they can easily flip and sink unlike US warships which is certified tested including nuclear blast. US Warships have compensating fuel/ water design to make sure they are kore stable and impossible to flip. And US warships can detect and outside extreme weather conditions.
I was in a navy as well and I feel the same way about cruise ships.
They are stabilized with machinery and machines fail at the worst times.
Agree with other replies.
This video should have been titled:

Sgt !
Just immense attention to detail!!!
Interesting additional information although I was expecting more maritime techniques used by the navy… I spent 15 years in the RAF working with transport Aircraft such as the C130 H’s and J models… thanks for sharing 👍🍻
I too was wanting more maritime techniques.
GOD BLESS AMERICA🙏🙏🙏 AMÉM 🙏🙏🙏

I worked in Newport News shipyard for 5 or 6 years as a welder/shipfitter. It was a cool job actually. Worked hard though but the pay wasn't bad. This video made me miss working in the yards.
5:35 There are signs all over the ship telling Gridley what he can and cannot do.
خوش آمدید
Tôi không hiểu bạn nói gi,, nhưng tôi Thích xem truong trình này lắm,, mong ban hồi âm ,rất vui ,,,,
Watched a destroyer taking green water over the bow and white water over the bridge during unrep.
We were steady as she goes - CVA 63.
thank you, QM 's
The Kitty Hawk. DD931 (DESRON10) Flag Ship escorted the America. We hit a storm on the Atlantic.
Called those over the bridge waves - Greenies. Loved being on that tin can.
I was on a 298 foot vessel in 30' seas with occasional 40' waves. Green water over the bow and white water smashing the bridge. I was waiting for green water over the bridge. I was scared to death rolling so hard that another couple feet and we would have rolled right over. Trying to take a dump or a piss was not fun. I managed a shower without being body slammed to the deck. Not sure how.
Ah yes, the sound of a needle gun in the middle of the night, outside your bunk. Cherished memories.
Knuckle busters were way worse.
"Naval Steel", now there's a good one...
👍👍👍👍 GOOD MR....

That was a pretty good Recruiting Infomercial, I got some screenshots of the little Destroyers diving in the Waves.
Awesome battleship 😎😎😎🤘
Last Thursday was the 30th anniversary of Hurricane Andrew. I hid in the bathtub with my Doberman and used a mattress for cover for protection. It was like an atom bomb without the radiation.
To avoid sinking It''s called water tight integrity and head straight into the waves.
What about head into oncoming waves at an angle.?
@@johnrogers9481 The side of the ship is more exposed and it might get swamped and roll over especially in big waves. When I served the ship went straight in big seas.
@@richardhaddock5660 That ship won't live for long then. The proper way is to go through the waves in lower speed and always at an angle, like 10 to 20 degrees. Everything else cannot be considered as good seamanship.
Is that every vessel or just boats? Because it seemed like we went straight.
@@richardhaddock5660 I don't doubt you went straight, but what I am telling you is that it's not the right way to go.
Either on the quarter, or on the bow, always under an angle.
this short video is a keeper... outstanding.
The Dropson is much like the XBT that Sonar Techs use to determine water conditions. The similarity between these systems was interesting to me though the XBT does not use radio signals to transmit the data.
Friend all These calamity's that are going on around the world will lead to a Sunday Law Which will be The Mark Of The Beast, Those that keep Gods seventh day sabbath will be prohibited from buying and sell and persecuted. Jesus is coming are you ready?
Happyy mood 🤲🤲🤲🤝🤝🤝🤝🙏🙏😊😊
the key thing is to make sure the water mostly stays on the OTHER side of the hull

I guess we better get started on building more of them if they take that long to build

“Aircrafts” is not word. When you want the plural, “aircraft” is used. Please get help proofreading your scripts before final production. It will make a better impression.

It's possible that this is being narrated by a bot
Good thing there’s a metal called ‘naval steel’ specifically made for naval boats
Bing
It can stain a bit but it's way beyond stainless steel.!
HY-80 Steel
Thanks sir u r english speaking is very clear
Mantaaap..
GOOD!!!

We took 40-50 footers over the bow of the Forrestal in 87 in the North Atlantic on a NATO cruise. Still waiting for the part that keeps boats afloat in this video. Lost me in this one.

China also copied the way of the US emperor? 😍😍
My father was a Quartermaster in the Navy in WWII. He saw a ship go down with all hands in a storm in the Atlantic.
Are they all right?
WOW.All hands,that's TRAGIC.
Quite a few ships sunk during WW 11
and also many due to natural causes around the world.
@Wandering Nomad they're with Davy Jones now 😔
Awesome 👍
Fun facts: During heavy seas and large storms hatches and scuttles are closed making the ship more rigid and helps control flooding should water tight integrity fail.
They withstand the fury of nature by not going into storms
So amazing 💪💪💪

New Orleans enroute to Tandem Thrust In Australia. Thru the typhoon we go. Locked in berthing (Marine). Crazy. Didnt know we almost rolled until afterwards
Heading to Norfolk in a couple weeks. Any suggestions on best naval attraction to tour ?

真厉害
Dangerous waves
RCN here with 15 years service. The only technique I've seen to avoid sinking in a storm was to stay in port, or take the long route around a storm.
Two examples come to mind. First, in 2015 we got an extra day in Split, Croatia due to a big storm in the Adriatic. Second, in the fall of 2020 heading back from Portsmouth England we ran south under the Azores and then swung north to our home port of Halifax, Nova Scotia.
No offense but this video doesn't show any "techniques" for avoiding a sinking.

"US Navy Ships Special Techniques to not Sink During Storm"
It's called "Staying Afloat"
Keep bringing those awesome videos your work is appreciated
Nothing awesome here. He didn't say what those "special techniques" are. Nice vid the poster is uninformed about ships.
Keep water on the outside is a good technique to not sink
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻parabéns abraço aqui do Brasil 😉👍👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Good point about the sinking, but based on the video I long for the day when our global military might will be used only for rescue operations due to natural disasters.
That's the whole point of this video.. that THERE IS NO TECHNIQUE IN HOW NOT TO SINK.
so, no tactical maneuverings ?
Sipp ok 🤝🤝🤝🤝💪💪💪💪💪😎😎😎

Even after knowing so much, he could not stop the storm
stopping the storm is not the object, getting to target is.
The new ones can't do anything, they fall apart.
