      The original ship was built in 1963. When she was bought by certain owners in 1985 they decided to keep the engine room and superstructure but get rid of the other 2/3rds of the ship. It was discarded and a new forebody was built and attached to the older section.

    From the early 70's I was enlisted in the Navy then in the Merchant Marine. 25 years at sea so I assumed by now ship maintenance technology has passed me by. Then I saw the use of needle guns, chippers, scrappers, etc. so I would be right at home. Except we didn't have Shop Vacs to clean up. And we always laid down coats of Red Lead as a primer. We used to mix the final coat of paint into the Red Lead so coat after coat the layers of Red Lead got closer to the final color. I guess the newer paints don't need primer.

It might sound weird to you but the sound that accompanies the video you're showing is a really important part of the experience. Basically, if your montage is good enough it'll do fine with either literally just the native audio or ADR of the same environment 👊🙏
