    I’ve always wondered what it would be like to be a passenger on a cargo ship and you’ve answered my question. This is the power of TH-cam - allowing viewers to vicariously have real-time real-wold experiences !

    Did you know that the Kingston harbour is the seventh-largest natural harbor in the world, also It's the seventh deepest harbor in the world, and much of it is deep enough for large ships to dock close to shore.

    You didn't show your river boat pilots on the deck. You probably had 3 different one's fron NOLA to pilot town in Venice. South Pass next.
    Fyi, all Riverboat Pilots are related. Rather your immediate famiky member must be a pilot. They make alot of $$$$$
    Man, next time that ever happens in New Orleans
    Contact the New Orleans Habor Police dispatch and mention your issue. Ask for rank.
    Im surprised you were not able to enter the port off Tchoupitoulas St. either by the First Street Entrance, Jackson Ave or Napoleon Ave entrance. Or a few miles up river near State street.
    Just curious, what entrance did they bring you that was closed??

    So ... Let me understand. You just took a container ship from NoLa to Jamaica FOR THE FUN OF IT? No vacation on a Jamaica beach? You just turned around and went home. You put yourself in this position and then you complain that its like being in a prison? YOU PUT YOURSELF IN THAT PRISON!
    BTW ... Did you PAY for this trip? What does a container ship trip cost? What was the food like? Didn't you get to interact with any of the crew? (Where were they from?) Or were you in solitary confinement during your jail sentence?

All you did was pan the cam so fast over those area's. wtf..lol and here we go back up watching the darn blue again. Holy cow. What the Heck do you do on the vessel? Please let us know. For someone who has full access up on the bridge, and Eng control, you did not show much other than that darn Blue stuff outside. LMAO looking forward to your answers.
