I thoroughly enjoyed this video ! I am a cardiovascular nurse in the U.S. and the speech you give at 6:49 is inspiring and so closely mimics how I feel about my work as well. I'm sorry about your son and brother. You are an inspiration to many :)

The English have such fantastic names for their vessels. “Adamant” I love it!

Our naval fighting ships got some great names - Revenge, Relentless, Warspite, Warrior, Valiant, Victory, Dreadnought, Defiance etc...

Its an almost plausible bit of video that, very enjoyable.

Any reason for the engine being so far forward?

Is the weighted rope that orbits around the bridge-walkway that advances the tow line down canal called something special?

The stuff about the old mans brother dying in a boiler explosion came out of left field
