    About 15 years ago, my father had a medical emergency, while sailing from Ft. Lauderdale to St. Thomas (U.S.V.I.). Before the U.S. Coast Guard could mount an effort & send aid, a massive Korean cargo ship bound for Africa intercepted the distress call & changed course over 100 miles to help. They were able to get him on board until a U.S. Coast Guard chopper arrived & transported him back to Florida & a hospital, where his life was saved just in time. Hats off to the cargo guys! There are good people out there & it's amazing how much sailors(wind or fuel operated) have each other's back. Thank you!

    Fact: Yes, the ship hulls were copper paint based and gave it that historic red tint. However... That color limitation is not something that is followed all the time or even commonly in some cases anymore. A great example is the Costa Concordia that sank in 2012. It was pure white all the way down the side and down the hull. (Edit: There was a red hull deep below the waterline.)There are also some blue hulled ships too. In fact, the Carnival Fleet seems to primarily be pure white hulls or blue hulls nowadays.
    Tankers on the other hand... Those still tend to be red, but brown is another color that pops up. (Sometimes due to the red fading, of course, but pure brown all the way down does happen.) I've also come across blue and gray hulls. (Not much real life experience sadly but lots of videos/research/etc.)
    What's more, the draft markings aren't just red and white. Instead, it just requires contrasting colors/highly visible. (Red/White is an obvious one.) Blue/White is another.

  • @TERRYBIGGENDEN

    I've never heard of copper paint being red. I always thought it was greenish? Also. easy wooden vessels were sheathed in thin copper plate. I think there may be some confusion here. The red paint is primarily red (iron) oxide, at least in earlier times.

    The largest container vessels is the MSC Isabella and can contain 23646 TEU ( meaning 23646 x 20ft containers). This is the cargo capacity used to describe the capacity of container ships . It is based on the volume of a 20-foot-long (6.1 m). This vessel has also entered the port of Antwerp last week. This is a vessel from MSC not Maerk :)

    @HR-wd6cw 4 ปีที่แล้ว

    Well think about that 245 day cruise like this...if you saved just $10,000 per year for 10 years, you could take that trip. If you invested it in some more secure funds (not stocks necessarily) then you might be able to take the trip sooner depending on your rate of return. Although I'm not sure I'd want to be on a cruise ship for 245 days. I suspect this is probably more of a once-in-a-lifetime deal and doing it repeatedly might get old after a while. I'd say a 1-2 week cruise might be enough for me.

    Copper paint? No, copper plating. Made it close to impossible for "worms" (really a clam) to get into the wood behind the plates. Growth was still possible and common as the copper was not that toxic. Thus it was nescessary to scrape the bottom of the hull. The ship was beached and pulled over, or handled in a dry dock or with "camels" (floats). The copper was greenish (as it got coated with copper-carbonate etc.). The paint later developed contained tin (stannum) which apart from being "not toxic" really can become toxic, a true gender changer for fish.
    Copper nails were used to preserve wood in harbours, bulwarks and duc d'albe's.

    My wife and I have gone on a few cruise lines and I haven't felt nausea from the swaying of the ships, but my wife has. For those that get a little nausea from the sway of the ships, try and get a cabin that has a balcony, or at least a window that could open up. At night when my wife got the nausea feeling, we opened the door slightly to the balcony to allow the outside air to come into our cabin. This allowed her stomach to settle and sleep without any troubles.

    Bright side: So when was the last time you looked at a ship?
    Me: I’m working on a ship since 2003.
    Bright side: so what’s the use of the red paint under the ship?
    Me: it’s a water line from the keel up to the free board.
    Bright side: 😁✌🏻

    Considering reason(s) ?
    This should be a 30s vlog.
    -- Observation of compatable water line.
    -- IF static (no movement) waterline is above this,
    the ship is sinking.
    -- As such an important
    waterline,
    red is best to visually see.

    The SS Eastland capsized in dock in July of 1915 on the Chicago river. Partly because of safety equipment, partly because the overfilled vessel passengers all rushed on side of the top deck, and partly because its ballast tanks weren’t filled. ~820 people from the western electric company drowned that morning in what would be known as the Eastland disaster. Google it, twas quite tragic and hardly anyone has ever heard of it.

    (Get your facts straight!)
    Your information about the S.S. Eastland is totally faults! My great uncle was on that ship when it capsized in the Chicago River in 1915 not from sailing on the Lake Michigan. The Eastlast being a tall steamship was docked in the Chicago River, one of many rented by Western Electric Co. to take their employees to the Warren Dunes in Michigan City, Indiana for the Company picnic.
    The reason for the capsized was that there was some commotion going on in the river opposite of the side they are boarding ship on and everybody on board rush to the far side of the ship and being tall with a short beam, the weight all on one side of the ship caused it to capsized!
    My uncle hung from the handrailing as many people above him stepped on his hands to keep from falling into the river as the boat capsized.

    I heard there's no law enforcement. I watched a video about a woman went missing on a cruise ship. She did go alone & told no one where she was going. If my memory serves me right, she just jump up out of bed & packed her bags for a vacation. Someone that works on cruise ships said there are a lot of weirdos on those ships, ppl can get away with anything on cruise ships cause there's no security.

    idk how are they called, but at ships like titanic or britannic, lusitania etc, there are 3 or 4 yellow or red pillars with a black stripe at the top. smoke is coming out so i think it was part of the coal pistons system. my question is why are they yellow or red
