I just discovered this channel, and I'm enchanted : beautiful images, perfect sound, nice and not intrusive music, helpful commentaries… You have some taste for good job
I was a Radio Officer from 1973 to 1987 . I watched your channel to remember those good old days . My last ship was a chemical tanker manned by NFD .I signed off after 9 months in USA . I’m settled here now with my family living the American Dream. Hats off to you Chief!!!
@@sallystinebaugh8893 what business of yours is it to nag? I'm just asking a question, what a generation we live in where everyone's a butthurt twerp ready to be offended. And if it gives you shy relief, half my family is American. I've seen a lot of people migrate to the states for whatever reasons, and I've seen karens and bitter uncles asking what right do they have of coming there, it's their country and they're not allowed and a lotta shit. Even though the immigrant has done more for the country than those bums in their lifetime.
I absolutely love your Vlogs Chief! I rarely watch TV anymore with all the BS in the media these days and your RUclips channel is not only informative but relaxing. Your drone footage is fantastic!
Great video, great photography. So exciting getting to travel with you again! Looks like long periods for you with no sleep! Thank you so much for making these!
Chief, it's good to watch you here and your good lady going towards my hometown Ochakiv. Hope to see you there at the roads, wishing you good contract and calm seas. If you need anything, do not hesitate to contact with me via RUclips. Since I am seaman also, I will be happy to assist with anything you need.
CHIEF, I wish you safe journey always. I am an aspiring seafarer but with no MARINE TRANSPORT EDUCATION background. I hope you could share some inspirational advices for the ones like me that dreams to be a seafarer despite the hurdles of no seaboard experiences. God bless always -Ben jo
BEN JOSHUA CO Ben, Chief will be the correct guide but if you have completed class 12 with Math as major I believe you can opt for radio-officer. This is a guess thus cross confirm.
@@shub74 thank you so much for sharing such a good info. I will check on it for it I am currently unfamiliar with it. I've graduated on a Vocational technology course (Electrical Technology) but I will surely check about math 12 that you've mentioned sir Uno. Thank you so much and God bless always
Your sea flogs are great , and so very interesting . Brings me back memories of a few times, not as much as you though ,of my sea time on oil rig jobs and sea duties in 2005 between Singapore and Malta , via Egypt, Israel and Malta , they will always give me special memories . So thanks for reminding me , through your videos of life at sea , seeing I was the camp boss and head chef on board 👌
I'm pleased you are back aboard and pursuing your love of seafaring Chief. I'll be looking forward to more vids of your voyage. Fair winds and following seas. Cheers!
Can,t wait for the next episode. Each new video is better than the old one, what a nice work Chief, my entire family really enjoy your videos. Excuse my english. Blessings from Mexico.
Thanks Chief for sharing these videos, the drone footage of your newly painted ship were excellent. Very picturesque. I wondered if you've ever lost a drone at sea, I would worry about myself and I was curious. Thanks again for sharing your adventures, it is fascinating to get a glimpse into your occupation and life at sea. Greetings from a Canadian farmer.
Hi there Chief, love your videos, I have been chief cook on vessels for the last twenty years, and get a real kick out of watching your vlogs. I had my mess man watch the one you made about the hardest working guy on board. We both got a real laugh about that! Sail safe my brother.
Hello there from Odessa, Ukraine. Just wanted to say that I'm a fan of your videos and I never thought that you'd visit my homeland. I appreciate what you're doing, keep it up
I`m from Novorossiysk.I`m first year student of Admiral Ushakov Maritime University. I hope I`ll join work at sea as an engine cadet In The future You do the great job. Good luck for you.
Hello sir chief makoi. Thanks for inspiring us with these amazing vlogs. I am an aspiring youtuber here on a bulk carrier, filming my daily works onboard.
It would have been interesting and educational had you shown just seconds of how they loaded barley ? with the crane barge into your ship's load holes ... It would be interesting for many of of ... things you take for granted are new and interesting to many of us ... I found you on youtube because of being stuck at home because of covid ... thank you for your efforts, and thank you for your GOOD and SLOW English so almost everybody can understand you. One can tell you are a smart guy ... and educated ... and a nice person.
I came across your channel just browsing through RUclips looking for interesting content to look at. Even though I'm in a completely different career your videos are very intriguing to look at. It opens up my mind to a whole new path. Keep up the good work. Be safe.
Hey Chief, all the best for the rest of your trip. Currently 6 weeks into my first one as a junior engineer, very different from being a cadet and incredibly difficult. Hoping things pick up from here.
Chief makoi I'm a big fan of your work hehe. Request lang po as a future marine engineer pls continue your study call videos. it will be a big help for us students in this pandemic. Hehe thank u sir for inspiring us, more power to you and keepsafe always ❤
Judging by the 'cleanouts,' this ship is a dry bulk carrier. When I taught finance, we had a case about a 'Capesize' dry bulk carrier company. I couldn't believe how the shipping costs went from a loss (company paying for the shipment) to the cost of transport exceeded the cost of the cargo. The volatility of costs was off the charts. I can't imagine trying to run a company like this.
Interesting video, thanks Chief. As a landlubber engineer(!) it seems very inefficient having to load a barge just to load the ship. Two load/unload operations rather than one. Then I was surprised to see cranes and scoops and wondered why the grain wasn't pumped aboard. These methods must add a lot of time to the loading process so I wonder why it was done this way and if it is standard practice.
usually large cargo ship like this one dont dock ports because the water is too shallow for them to transit at empty and full load thats why the cargo are carried by barge to the ship. it all depends on depth of water and port of destination. usually a ship with 5 cargo holds will narrowly fit in ports.
Hi Chief. That looks like a Tsuneishi built Kamsarmax 84k dwt bulker. Was it built in Balamban? If so, it was me installed various parts in the JRCS MSB and ECC seen behind you in the video.
Fascinating ship. No slave pits, no rowing paddles. This new sorcery is amazing, I only wish we had this before when I was young boy, it would have saved me so much rowing.
Having watched the cargo hatch be shut and sealed how easy is it for water to enter the holds during bad weather? Is ìt possible for storms to rip the covers off and flood the holds? Have you ever seen a rogue wave?
Are there any colour codes while painting the ship, chief? I mean red painted ships to carry dangerous/hazardous materials and white or green for food, paper,logs,or other non toxic materials.just like they paint on gas cylinders.

Why do you live in the States and not your own country?
@@grimmywizard , maybe there’s better opportunities for him here in the United States, and what business of yours is it.. ?

Chief, your videos, drone flights, back ground music and the sea is so soothing! I’m very happy to find your channel.
Yes this channel is awesome. ⚓🚢🌊⛵😀👍
very informative and interesting Chief
much thanks
Thanks for taking us along chief.
I'm not sure why. But your videos bring me peace.
South Africa🇿🇦🇿🇦 approves Chief🙌🏿🙌🏿🙌🏿
I was USN for 20 years, but you've gone places that I didn't. Fair winds & following seas, sir!
Thays awesome, I'm Ukrainian but live in USA. So it was cool to hear something familiar
Every time i watched your video it feels like i am watching a documentary. Great lavel of professionalism and editing skills. Awesome channel
I absolutely love your Vlogs Chief! I rarely watch TV anymore with all the BS in the media these days and your RUclips channel is not only informative but relaxing. Your drone footage is fantastic!
I really do enjoy your videos you don't talk too much and you don't talk about stupid stuff really appreciate it
⚓ At sea, I learned how little a person needs, not how much....To reach a port we must set sail 🚢
Chief Makoi.Your videos are truly amazing and very educational i have learned a lot.Well done!
Chief Makoi, can you make a vlog about the electrical, electronics and automation on board?
yes that would be interesting! I've been on a couple of ships, and automation between old and new is so different and fascinating!
Love your videos how many barges of grain can you hold. We load barges from truck on the river it normally takes 60 semi trucks to load one barge.
You are becoming a better filmmaker, episode by episode. I love the drone shots.
I really appreciate watching your videos. It’s always nice to see other people’s professions and what goes on.
Salamat Chief MAKOi;.. You have by far the best maritime You Tube videos, it is a pleasure to see life @ sea and the drone video is always a bonus!
Great video, great photography. So exciting getting to travel with you again! Looks like long periods for you with no sleep! Thank you so much for making these!
Great video log. Have good Health and bonvoyage CHIEF

You were just like a dot on deck, Sir Chief lol! Great shots, as usual. Goodspeed!
Were all cargo holds filled up, Sir? How long did the entire cargo operations take to finish filling up all the holds?
Yes. It took 9 days. It's on the next episode.
@@ChiefMAKOi i'm very excited and so looking forward to that, Sir!
Hava a safe voyage Chief. Kudos to all seafarers!🎉

Hello Chief! Quite a journey from New York to the Black Sea.
Hi Chief Makoi thank you for the knowledge you share with our peers.
Hello there from Odessa, Ukraine. Just wanted to say that I'm a fan of your videos and I never thought that you'd visit my homeland. I appreciate what you're doing, keep it up
Excellent drone footage. Very scenic. Love your channel. Keep up the videos of life at sea.
Great video and editing Chief ! 👍
Wonderful music..fits very well.
Very inspirational to watch as a seafarer.Thank you Chief.😉
I would have thought the grain would be pumped, vacuum/blower onto your ship.
Excellent sharing at sea !!
I`m from Novorossiysk.I`m first year student of Admiral Ushakov Maritime University. I hope I`ll join work at sea as an engine cadet In The future You do the great job. Good luck for you.
Hello sir chief makoi. Thanks for inspiring us with these amazing vlogs. I am an aspiring youtuber here on a bulk carrier, filming my daily works onboard.
If I could go back. I would like to do this for a few years. It looks like a rewarding life.
Hey Chief. I was a bosnmate. I enjoy your videos
I’m sure your jobs are mundane to you, but you make it fascinating to watch! 😀

Beautiful camera work, and great commentary letting us know what's going on! Love all your videos.
Great scenery.
Like always a good video chief Makoi, just interesting and helpful to understand the life of a marine crew member, keep it up thank you.
Good job chief makoi . I want to you to discuss about the auxialliary machinery and boiler

Great video, chief. Feel like I'm at sea again. Black sea
thanks for showing us how the holds close
Many of us wish we were with you Chief. It would be better than sitting around just hoping to go back to normal. Enjoy yourself using your trade mate.
Hello po stay safe always🙏🙏🙏
Keep safe always chief and god bless
Nice informative video👍 ... and be very careful
Good video and love the drone footage. Would have like to seen the crane barge in action tough.
That's on the next episode. 😊
I love this video.

Hi Chief,i worked on same tug(nibulon-5),and on this crane St.Nikolay until 2020
Interesting video, thanks Chief. As a landlubber engineer(!) it seems very inefficient having to load a barge just to load the ship. Two load/unload operations rather than one. Then I was surprised to see cranes and scoops and wondered why the grain wasn't pumped aboard. These methods must add a lot of time to the loading process so I wonder why it was done this way and if it is standard practice.
Probably the ship is too big to be loaded at the port.
usually large cargo ship like this one dont dock ports because the water is too shallow for them to transit at empty and full load thats why the cargo are carried by barge to the ship. it all depends on depth of water and port of destination.
usually a ship with 5 cargo holds will narrowly fit in ports.
Another good one Chief, wish we could have seen some of the loading operation.
Also tell your crew n Captain hello from Southeastern Ohio United States. ! 😀😀😊
Congratulations to your first white hair in the beard. :)
Hi Chief. That looks like a Tsuneishi built Kamsarmax 84k dwt bulker. Was it built in Balamban? If so, it was me installed various parts in the JRCS MSB and ECC seen behind you in the video.
That's right !
Chief, just watched your latest blogs. They vlog are really good. Well done.
Love it! I wonder if I have the soul to be a merchant marine.
Fascinating ship. No slave pits, no rowing paddles. This new sorcery is amazing, I only wish we had this before when I was young boy, it would have saved me so much rowing.
Nice job Chief. In your travels do you ever worry about pirates?
The notorious pirate areas are in Somalia, Nigeria, Malacca Strait. It's quite scary if the ship travels there.
Chief loveing from Bangladesh
The englishation is very.. very nice. The story tellinganazationism is on point hehehehehe 😂
Whenever you come to India do inform in advance. It be great pleasure to meet you
Footage is much interesting with the Drone Camera. thank you.
God bless sir😊
The Sound of God. Many Waters💦💦💦👍Kenya 🇰🇪
Hello.
Can you tell me how that much dust will come in sea.
Your voice,English, narrative and videos editing is really awesome.
Awesome vlog Brother.
I was a seaman ..anyway sign off is the best moments
Made me inspired sir. Thankyou! more power. Keep safe
Gd day, trip have a nice trip to saudi as you said in your blog.
That looks like a very slow way to load the entire ship. How much grain can one scoop hold?
Thank you sharing your experiences. Please do dome more technical videos.
Loving the drone shots
Having watched the cargo hatch be shut and sealed how easy is it for water to enter the holds during bad weather? Is ìt possible for storms to rip the covers off and flood the holds? Have you ever seen a rogue wave?
Welcom to Ukraine, Chief!
Watching cheng's video. Contidioning myself and my mind prior joinong.
Thanks Chief! Do you ever come to the Great Lakes in USA/Canada? I think the largest lock is 1200' X 110' with a depth of 32'.
I'm surprised that you travel so far to pick up another load. Picking up load where you unload I would of thought that would be the norm.
Tank you sir
Natuwa ang mga video ng Chief . From Viet Nam
6:10 When you said that, i realized that for me, a Belgian person, this is more than normal in the summer, but for Filipinos it is indeed special :)
How do you keep time and clocks on voyages? You could make a video on it maybe.
Can you do a short film showing your ships bell please, and the role it plays .. if its stored on its hanger all the time or in a storeroom..
Are there any colour codes while painting the ship, chief? I mean red painted ships to carry dangerous/hazardous materials and white or green for food, paper,logs,or other non toxic materials.just like they paint on gas cylinders.
Hi! Chief makoi..watching your vlog,from davao city...goodluck!
Love it, great work as always @Cheif
