BZ Chief - so glad your hard work, training, and big brain are paying off! More than that, I'm glad you're where you want to be 🤘 Thanks for the update
Hope you're doing well in the new position. Looking forward to the next update. Haven't seen your feeds pop up lately and thought it was just YT blocking you out.
Looks like an upgrade in accommodations! Here’s a future video suggestion…compare and contrast between 2nd mate duties and Chief Mate duties. You mentioned the main difference between navigation and cargo, but maybe dive in on that a bit more without divulging any company specifics of course.
I am glad to hear you like your job more than you expected you would! Watch and learn from everybody and move up the ladder. You may run your own ship in the future if you keep doing what you are now. The bigger cabin and view out on deck ain't a bad thing either! Good luck and I look forward to your future video's.
B Z Chief, way to go. Worked with a number of CMs when I was a Cargo Handler in USN. They were all great people and I am sure you are doing well as Number 2.
You sound so much more positive! Good for you. I miss your videos, some of the best on RUclips in fact. You are a person building a real career, not an actor. I wish you all the luck in the world on you journey toward being a Master.
Congratulations ! We have no doubt you are up for the the challenge , you trained for this , we’re glad you made the move , it’s part of your journey not a lot of people can say they did what you did ! Enjoy your newfound position in the maritime world ! Keep us in the loop when you can , we always enjoy anything you may post , fair seas and following winds ,nicely making way……….
"Thanks" to the RUclips algorthim I haven't seen one of your videos in 20 months when you got back. Congradulations, you'll do great. It certainly comes with a better shipboard office. Now I need to watch what I've missed.
I read what you wrote on Instagram about reconciling the private and personal sides of your life and it really must be making you more relaxed. Do you realize that you didn't use one single "four letter" expletive in the entire video? Not one f-bomb, nothing. In your last videos from Shanghai, from the shipyard, they were a dime a dozen. I'm taking this as a sign. Good work. 😊
Aloha Chief Mate, “She beckons and calls you back. Pulling you back to her soft and even flow, a tempest of unyielding force. No matter have you go, she whispers quietly in your ear and thoughts. More you deny it the stronger it becomes, pulling you until you give and just go. None have or will ever know the call, it’s a warm beckoning to what we know. That’s the calling “Of the Sea.” Be safe and well out on next hitch Chief Mate. Aloha.🤙
Congrats! Have you experienced any “I wouldn’t do it that way” moments watching the Second mate handle the nav duties? Stay frosty and enjoy the moment when departing this port😎
@@m.leinewolczko The Yokohama, Kobe, Naha, Kaoshung, Hong Kong…. turn & reverse … ten ports in 25 days, maybe less. The mate earns it… I had to bunker in Yoko, once, for stability - the ship had fuel tanks out of service because of cracks. Big $$$ for bunkers in Japan. Fun times 😎
"If you feel safe in the area you’re working in, you’re not working in the right area. Always go a little further into the water than you feel you’re capable of being in. Go a little bit out of your depth. And when you don’t feel that your feet are quite touching the bottom, you’re just about in the right place to do something exciting." David Bowie
Congrats on the promotion!! Nice office!
Indeed 😁
So glad your career is moving along. It is wild watching you and watching the containers fly past your window at the same time.
Isn't that fun? 😁
Congratulations! I'm sure you're up for the challenge. Thanks for the update.
