    All i can say is this : People from the Philippines look great , look lively , they work hard with discipline and afterwards they know how to have fun and keep their spirit high ! It seems to me they are naturally polite and smiling most of the time !
    Your drone skills my friend are next level by the way ! That was just another amazing video

    I know little about running a large ocean going vessel. However over my 60 year career I have learned to recognize quality and excellent leadership. You said that you are "proud o be one of them". You sir are an excellent leader and I am sure that the crew is proud of the work you do. Congratulations. Happy Easter.

    From beginning, to its conclusion, this work exemplifies mastery in the art of telling a worthy story. It brings us, once again, into a world which for me is so dissimilar to my daily life. Yet, the common thread which binds the construction of this tapestry holds a shining truth: The heart of every man and woman is a root from which all else is known. This viewer is continually impressed, and encouraged by the skills. But, much more than this, I hold gratitude to have heard the heart of a distant fellow traveler. I, too am proud to be one of them.

    Thanks Chief. As the son (now 76 years of age) of a former Chief Engineer in the British Merchant Marine, I am impressed. But most of all; I was extremely impressed with the saying of Grace Before Meals by the families and crew of that ship. They were not scared to demonstrate their faith when they made the Sign of the Cross. Great Vlogs. I have enjoyed all of them.

I imagine it felt good just walking up the brow and getting your feet back on deck, even though you weren't getting underway. There is just something about standing on a ship's deck, the smell of the air, gulls flying overhead, it just feels good, underway or not. Thanks again Chief for another GREAT video, all the very best to you and yours.

    Thank you Chief for another wonderful video. This was very interesting. I'm always amazed how bright, clean and cheerful the engine rooms are. The views along the coast were stunning! Such a beautiful country. If you're ever out driving and pass water with a caribou nose just barely out of the water, please film it. People who live outside the Philippines have no idea that the whole huge animal is underwater and only his nostrils are on the surface. :) That used to fascinate me and I'm sure it would others. There are so many wonderful little things than no one knows about and when we live there tend to take for granted. I remember every detail like it was yesterday. That pig looked so good I could eat the whole thing!! All the food was fabulous! Thanks again for all you do.

    Hey Chief, great video! We spoke a while back on your video of cleaning a bulk tanker talking about confined spaces and the like and I've got a similar question here. How are the tanks on this ship cleaned? Trucks and smaller storage vessels like the 30,000L tanks I deal with are fairly easy, just needing a bunch of steam for non food grade chemicals but how does it work on a ship? I assume it's a little more difficult to clean at sea than your video of a bulk ship showed and I'm guessing it's not as easy as just putting on the steam and draining it after an hour or two. How do you transition from industrial chemicals to food grade loads?
