You're providing a unique content about the maritime industry , honestly I've never seen someone explaining the cargo operation the way you did Thank you so much
Thanks a lot for the compliments! Do you work in the industry? Just wondering how helpful my content has been with new officers just getting started in the maritime industry.
@@BryanBoyle oh I'm acutely working in the fishing industry as a bridge officer which has some similarities and differences with an officer in merchant navy but I'm moving to the maritime industry within the next two years, and I got to say that your content has been inspiring and educating
Agreed! I've always been fascinated by cargo ships and even seeing those containers on trucks is nice, to wonder where they've come from and what's inside! Thanks for this up-close tour! Subscribed!
Just checked out a couple of your videos. Nice ship spotting! Glad you have enjoyed my content. I’ve been trying to bridge the gap between the public and our mysterious maritime industry many don’t know about by providing videos like these in laymen terms!
Brian, Den Hottinger from Seattle, A freighter from China just sailed thru , 60 ft sea off Cape Flatery in The straights of Jaun De Fuca off Wa St, heading too Alaska. They Lost , 40 containers, then , 1 container burst open into flames & the coast guard evacuated all But 3 ship hands as it crippled too Vancouver BC. 60 ft seas is mind blowing.! Great tour Brian!, 🙈
Fascinating video of the offloading of these massive cargo ships. Many of us have only marveled at the operation, you explain it in easy to understand detail, thanks Brian!
I work at Michelin in Lexington SC, we make those earthmover tires you see in the video. The ones that go on the ships are in containers and head to either Savanah or Charleston. The ones on flatbeds are headed to either Alberta Canada to the oil sands or out west to mines. So if you see them on the road you can now tell where they are headed by how they are being transported...
what I find it funny is that every control room is build to hold a lot of people working, like a normal, crowded office. but with a crew of 22 on a boat the size of a small town, you never see any crowd whatsoever
God bless you greatly for uploading this information, I was so eager to know more about how they transport almost everything we have today, from clothing to telephone, television, food and gasoline, thank you very much and thank you very much to all who do a great job for all of us. In that place, my respects and thousands of blessings for them and their families, to all who have worked and will work in this sector, thank you very much.
Another BRILLIANT episode not only for those who enjoy life at sea but cargo operations as well... Definitely love your channel and the contents you share. Best wishes from Spain.
Crazy how all this incredible infrastructure functions like this in hundreds of places around the world, yet still often goes mostly unnoticed by the general public. Humans are wild, man
Wow, what a fantastic video. Thanks for the tour and what you do. I don't think my brain could remember all of that at my age. So much different and nicer than Navy ships for sure and much more mooring lines and ballasts. I imagine the Navy has changed since 1977 and the newer ships. Thanks so much. Can't wait to see more shipboard procedures and unloading. That is so confusing.Thanks Bryan.
Thanks John! There is quite a bit of new technology on these merchant ships since the 70s. I’m not entirely sure how much of it such as the auto tensioning is used by the Navy, however. Would be interesting to get some feedback from an active duty SWO!
Good explanation of the process! I watched the video to learn about different docking processes for cargo ships and d/c of containers. It feels like I can do this job now.
Thanks for the great information. I always wondered why they were not top heavy because I didn't realize the containers could be loaded in hold. I was a Marine so I just rode ships. This helps.
Would love to see the whole process. From packing one of those TEUs with products, to it being picked up, marshaled, loaded to a ship and then seeing it delivered to the end user. So much of world trade is reliant on this, yet hardly any people see it. They just go to a store and buy something. In reality, that is the last step in a very very long and well coordinated process. Enjoying your content. Keep it up!
That was really interesting and answered so many questions that I’ve had for so long. I live south of Seattle on Puget Sound so there are lots of ports around and so many times I’ve wondered how this or that worked. Like the container auto locks. I thought you had to twist them and always wondered how you twist them. Now I know! Thanks. Please keep coming at us with all the info you can share!
We were on the "shore" side of this business for a really long time and its so interesting to see how these aspects actually work. I understood it in theory but its so interesting to see it actually happening. Also had a friend who was known in the biz as the reefer king which sounds totally different if you don't know it's because his customers shipped tons of frozen chicken hahaha
Will be interesting to a lot of people as, in particular after the ONE Apus incident, there are a lot of questions about cargo lashing. I had a couple of years on a container feeder on charter to Mærsk back in the early 90's. I had my last feeder in 2003 before I left foreign going and had the last years before my retirement on domestic ferry services. Containers are efficient, but as one that startet at sea as a fifteen year old back in 1963 I did miss the General Cargo vessels. More time in port and less stress.
Yea part of the problem with these mega ships like the ONE Apus are how high they are stacking containers. It’s seems to be more common in this industry having containers fall overboard.
Very interesting video. From 1982 to 2010 I was involved in managing an overseas publishing center in Manila which relied on containerized shipping from the US for nearly all of our paper, ink and other supplies and used containers to ship our finished products around the world. Containerized shipping is now taken for granted but didn’t get standardized until the 1970s and it more than anything else is what changed the world economy because it became less expensive to manufacture in Asia and ship to the US and Europe via container ship than to produce products domestically.
Great video! I am in maritime school studying to be a deck officer, but it's hard to visualize what actually happens. Thank you for explaining what actually goes on in the industry. My dream is to be up in the bridge soon!
Ended up watching videos like this because of everything going on in the Suez at the moment, and just realised this ship is the Denver, which I'm pretty sure was the ship directly behind the Ever Given when it got stuck. Considering how many container ships there are in the world, what a weird coincidence!
Joh hey Bryan, ehm nice to see you working on mine favorite part of the cargo movements from seaside to landside, as i can call it like that. I never stopped imagine how it actually worked on the ship, i mean ofcourse i know there is a lot of unload and loading proces going on, but there is so many hidden scene about it. I mean i working on a airport at Amsterdam Schiphol, to working with planes, and know now a lot how its going up there... but i always wondering how its going on the portside, or harbor, and i even mentioned once to travel with one of this cargo ships, to see how everything is working, I mean i spent a lot of time on the sea together with mine family on the sea, but i always wondered about the cargo ships, and you just let us an little view inside of this amazing world. Thanks for that, i want to see more, so I gonna surcribe to see more of this, Or if you have any other information about traveling on a cargo ship, let me know, so maybe i still can join on a trip on a cargo ship, Greetings from the Netherlands, maybe one day see you on the port of Rotterdam! Nicely done vid!
Awesome video! Love all the in depth details you give, keep it up. I have two questions that I would like to ask. 1)Do you work for that ship only or for different ships that stop at that port? 2) Do all the containers all over to the top over the hatch door have the buckles?
Great vid with lots of detail. I learned a lot of totally new stuff which is always great. I had always wondered if the containers were just carried above deck or they extended into the hold. Now I know. Thanks.
A reefer container is going to discharge heat. You will notice there is a gap between the container and the things around it, so presumably there is an air circulation system there somewhere.
very cool seeing this man, because of the current market in the industry and stocks going to the moon its nice to see how it works off paper. Thanks for making this! BTW, have you bought any containerstocks?
That was great, thank you! I'd love to see even more detail about the twist-locks for allowing a container to rise, and what exactly goes on, on the wharf after grounding. Which twist-locks stay on the container as it is unloaded? And also, for example, is there one person on each end of the containers removing the lashing? Are they lashed at both ends, and does that person go back and forth, unlashing each side? Also to clarify, do you work for Maersk as part of the ship's crew or who then? ( I mean you had ship-office access, for instance....) Also, row 84 confused me. Aren't there say, usually 20 or fewer rows of containers from port to starboard? I really appreciate this video, thank you again!

Man I love youtube. Nice relief from my desk job to watch stuff like this
Brian, Den Hottinger from Seattle,
A freighter from China just sailed thru , 60 ft sea off Cape Flatery in
The straights of Jaun De Fuca off Wa St, heading too Alaska. They
Lost , 40 containers, then , 1 container burst open into flames
& the coast guard evacuated all
But 3 ship hands as it crippled too
Vancouver BC. 60 ft seas is mind blowing.!
Great tour Brian!, 🙈
Hands down the best, mosst informative, video of its kind I've seen.
Excellent job without a script. Very informative. I'm no sailor, just love the big ships.....
Yet another brilliantly made and well thought out mini documentary on the operation of the marine logistics industry. Good job
I have long wanted to find a video that would tell about loading containers on container ships. I finally found it. Thanks!
Thank you.
Thanks! Very neat to get this view of how a container ship works in port!
That was fantastic. Thank u
Fascinating tour Bryan!!
Very educational
Fascinating video of the offloading of these massive cargo ships. Many of us have only marveled at the operation, you explain it in easy to understand detail, thanks Brian!
A very crisp and comprehensive explanation, many thanks
I'm an apprentice in the SIU and I love your videos. Very relevant to American seafarers
Very interesting description of operations. As we say in french: magnifique. Thanks Bryan.
Outstanding. Keep up the good work
Great videos. Perfect content and editing.

Very interesting! Thanks, I always wondered what those were used for
I remember having to pull the wires for all the tire loads before we got crab gear to use in the yard
what I find it funny is that every control room is build to hold a lot of people working, like a normal, crowded office. but with a crew of 22 on a boat the size of a small town, you never see any crowd whatsoever

@@BryanBoyle What's an "swo?"
John Smith Surface Warfare Officer. They are in charge of operating surface ships in the Navy
I was not an officer. I was enlisted. Did all the work and got paid the least. :-)
Fascinating! Thank you so much Brian for recommending your video on securing the storage container.
You are doing good and provide many people.thank you very much 💕
Excellent and informative video, especially for folks living in a port area who quit going to sea decades ago!
Excellent video with outstanding explanations.
Thank you sir!
Good explanation of the process! I watched the video to learn about different docking processes for cargo ships and d/c of containers. It feels like I can do this job now.
Such a great video. Thanks for uploading such an informative video. Hoping to see more videos related to the marine industry.
Watching this video I've learnt more than everyhing I knew until today. Thanks you are very didactic!.
Thanks for the great information. I always wondered why they were not top heavy because I didn't realize the containers could be loaded in hold. I was a Marine so I just rode ships. This helps.
Glad you enjoyed!...stay tuned for a future video that shows the cargo holds in more detail
Very informative, and well-produced. Thank you!

For someone who works in logistics, in the import business in the US, it's interesting to see this all explained.
......this video is the most informativ video about containerships i have ever seen...thanks for showing...
Thanks! Glad to hear my video was so informative for you
Very useful . I really appreciated the effort you've putted in the videos
Great job of explaining things.

I'd love to ride along for a trip or two, if passenger accomodations existed. I know it used to be possible.
Very interesting view of an operation the average person never sees or imagines. Thanks! (Wish the last walk-around had been s bit slower 😊)
