Pilot arrived 20 mins after the first contact , so how was he late 🤷 ships have to wait up to an hour or more sometimes before a pilot comes on board. There is lot of procedures that needs to be followed before a pilot is sent to the ship .
I've been on 13 cruises and arrival to ports are always early. Even when returning to homeport. Can't blame the pilot when the ship is due to arrive at a certain time and arrives too early. Many pilots multi-task by serving other ships too. They may get off of one ship just to go directly to another for berthing or departure.
The weed there is so crap. All outdoor bunko shoved in your face constantly, bought some for like $20 n got seeds/stems/straight mids. The whites cut 70%+ with who knows, I didn't do any but from what my friends said they said it was shit compared to home. If you go to Jamaica for anything drug related you're a fool, although they do make super super good rum, both clear and dark.
lmao kid i've been there 4 times, heres an idea for you though since you think you know everything; go there, buy the shit, post proof if its good. other than that stfu.
The pilot was on time. The ship came in too early. They docked according to schedule, did they not? Smithsonian TV trying to make this dramatic. Shame on them.
I was just at Ocho Rios 2 weeks ago on the Carnival Vista when Hurricane Irma impacted Florida! It's a very nice port, much better than Falmouth where they curse you out for not buying stuff and crowd you!
Captain Scala is a wonderful person. He was the master of Carnival Legend for many years and who knows how many decades before that has he been at sea. Trust me. These guys are unbelievable. Molto Bene, Captain Scala!!
Jesus Christ... I was on that exact boat at that time. 2 years ago, I was on that cruise ship and I went to Jamaica on that boat. I was one of the passengers on that boat.
Had a blast in Ocho Rios this past week on the Holland America Nieuw Amsterdam. Jamaica gets a bad wrap... but the local people were very nice and the city is safe. Went to an amazing beach and then had some bomb jerk chicken and found a bar with $2 rum and cokes in the city center
We took our first cruise 3 years ago in Feb, this was our first port of call, stood on the deck and watched as we came into this port, beautiful calm weather in the morning and while on the beach, but when ready to leave port, strong gusty winds and a little rough water. Just like this video when he said sudden changes in weather and water conditions.
Early/late depending on where you are. If you're in Jamaica; that pilot boat was like 2 hours early. If you're the Capt of the ship; he was on time. While Mexicans will say we'll do it "mañana". Jamaicans are early, even if they're 2 days late. No rush, no worries. Like; dat bot no goen' anywheres; wat da hurry?
I was on a cruise at this port many years ago, and a stiff breeze picked up while we were docked. When it was time to leave, we were unable to because the wind had the ship pinned to the pier. The crew had to call for a tugboat to help pull it off the dock.
Was on a cruise and we docked at this port, took pictures from the deck as we docked, great experience on first cruise, remember that turn. Like they were maneuvering a building, cruise ships, beautiful floating cities.
They just dont care. It is something about their race and culture. They knew the vessel would be there and they still wernt around ? Ignorance or lazy ?
I work on a cruise line. They are like this on all of the ports of call. Turks and Cacos,Bahamas, Haiti. There is something about them.Can you name one of their countries that is not an impoverished violent , high crime,mud hole ?
My hotel was literally right next to that port. I always saw ships docking, but it didn’t seem to be that hard. Look at 3:06 in the background. That’s it! Moon Palace
the most humble captain of msc cruises, comandante La Scala now he retired as captain but still works on company, and there was Staff Captain Bono besides him, the most dangerous staff captain of msc cruises 😅
The US Navy ship I was on docked at Ocho Rios, probably 24 years ago or so... great little city. Coming in wasn’t too bad, but leaving we ran over some buoys and snapped at least one line, which promptly wrapped around one of the screws. Never forget watching the Captain, Chief Engineer, and MPA in dress whites, tearing into the reduction gear, before they realized what had happened. We couldn’t really go into any of the shops, because we were afraid we’d get a contact high, and we new dang well that we were going to get drug tested after spending a weekend in Ocho Rios. The Grand Jamaican hotel allowed us to use their facilities, so we shut down most of their bars. Red Stripe is def. an acquired taste...
Been in that port, the native foliage is GORGEOUS when you pull up. I was sitting on the deck of our friends aft balcony, so I got a really great view of the island as we were porting
My hotel I went to in August was right next to where this ship docked in Ocho Rios it’s called Moon Palace pretty expensive but worth it at 3:06 you can see the hotel building, that’s pretty dam awesome
Blumac5 yo i love that place i boutght the loyalty program and i go there every time in the suummer and sometimes in the winter, they have so much fun stuff to do and they have multiple hotels everywhere
because if you touch anything or hit anything, the accident prevention specialist will match up the pool with the point system, which mean you will be on probation for 6 month to a year, you'll have to do a road test, and then you have to do a worksheets on how to protect youself from HPVOFO accidents.
Hahahaha! While on JamCruise, we smacked the pier pretty hard, -it exploded in a puff of concrete. This was on the MSC Poesia, in 2012. BAM! Also, the ship hit a bouy, and it was pulled the full lenght of the ship.
As a captain, it is a calamity, a balancing act when you are dealing with wayward winds, multiple inbound, outbound, port and starboard tidal currents, bow thrusters, prop pitch, steering pitch, along with keeping a smile on your face. Now to boot, a port pilot that did not follow protocol, by answering the ships bridge request for his service. If not for a ships load of anxious vacationing folks, I would have detoured to the next destination.
We traveled on the Norwegian Epic in December 2017 and they actually ported at that cargo pier lol weather was bad and there were already other ships ported at those ship docks. Epic actually ports on the other side of the island but because of bad weather we had to go to the other side (this side with the cargo pier.) We already missed Bahamas due to bad weather so they weren’t about to miss another port. It was cool because our excursion was a two minute car ride down the road (zip line/bobsled) then we hit up Margaritaville for a Red Stripe! YAH MON!
Under water animation shows 2 rudders and 2 prop shafts and 4 bow thrusters, most modern passenger ships have azimuth pods that swivel which negates rudders and prop shafts and one or 2 bow thrusters.
Any captain should be able to dock a ship in a sea port, particularly an open port like Ocho Rios. A modern ship with dual engines and bow thrusters can pivot so there should not be a problem. Pilots are really only needed in inland waters (think the Great Lakes, the Mississippi etc). Many countries, particularly Caribbean countries require ships to have pilots just because they want the fees. The captain obviously cannot state the truth on camera so goes with the line that the pilot is needed. Google the port of Ocho Rios on google maps. If a captain cannot get his ship tied up here, perhaps more training is required.
@@ciptapradja2814 It is difficult in high winds but on a calm day it is not a problem particularly with the maneuvering aids today and in this case no other ships nearby. I grew up watching ships dock (from the ship). Father was a mariner.
I'm surprised they didn't talk about how many ships get caught up on The Sandbar in Jamaica near the James Bond Pier. It's been many years since I've been to Jamaica maybe they have finally dredge the waterways better. But approximately 10 years ago ships used to get caught up on The Sandbar. Some ships even had their props damaged causing the cruise ships to shudder and Shake. Until a drydock and properly balanced or replaced.
after the unfortunate devastation in the islands in the lesser Antilles there will be more cruise ships probably double going to Jamaica now in the next few years so they better perfect a docking at ocho rios
Admittedly I have no idea how to do their job but as a truck driver my first question is why do they turn all crazy tight and not just back in parallel?
rjcass33 it's hard to stop this massive vessel when going backwards, and I don't think they are meant to go backwards because of where they control the ship, hard to see the back
It all depends on the layout of the port, wind and the set of the current, propeller arrangement, if you have fixed propellers or dynamic propellers etc. In a situation like this, I think I would prefer doing exactly what he did because when you dock while going astern, you have to start using the bow thusters as rudders and along with that you kind of loose stability in the stern since the sidemotion of the propellers change when you go astern.
Divina isn’t that old. I’m surprised it doesn’t have azi pod verses Rutters. It probably does but for illustration purposes it was probably easier to show a rutter
I was just on the Recent Norwegian escape and we could not dock and i was mad because both sides of my family are from Caribbean islands St Thomas And Jamaica and it would of beem my first time om jamica. If you going ask i was born in St Thomas. But im more likely flying down this spring or summer. If you also ask im 13
I've worked in cruise ship tourism for eight years now and I guarantee that if the pilot was that late, there is no chance in fuck that the ship made it "Right on time". They can hardly get the gangway down on time even with the pilot on board when he needs to be
i have been to that port on the carnival victory a few years ago there is very little issues docking on the long dock but the short one were they used to load bauxite ore is tough
0:34 I've been on cruise ships before and the only show those kind of hot tubs in front of the boat on the displays but I could never find a way to get to the front of the boat
I was on that cruise that same day and the same cruise and I love it also the cruise was supposed to go to Puerto Rico but hurricane Irma was there so we had to go to jamaka and it's true because I was on it
“And touch down”
Now that’s the sound of a man who’s father forced him to be a sailor when he wanted to be a pilot.
I think touch down is an american football term or else a rugby football term, I,ve heard it used a lot in commentaries from both codes.
@@jgdooley2003 yeah but in this context he’s talking about the plane term he isn’t talking abt the touch down term in football

A pilot is never late, nor early. They arrive precisely when they mean too.

@@micahroberts4481 It's a joke about wizards ya dingus.
It wasn't that the pilot was late, It was the ship was early. Other wise the ship couldn't of still been on time.
EXACTLY!!!!!!!!
not necessarily. If the pilot was late, but the docking went extra smooth, they still could have been on time
Not every Jamaica especially our Marine Pilots are tardy
"couldn't of" ?
My Bunny Rabbit says you're Right!!!
And here I almost failed my driving test because of parallel parking lol
Parallel parking would be easier if cars had lateral thrusters.

yeah peggy.. i tend to agree. the pilot had nothing to do here.
Agreed, and maybe they do want the pilot fee. OTOH, using a local pilot reduces the ship's liability, should there be a problem.
Thnx Peg!

I was just in Ocho Rios last month! Beautiful city
About Time I was at Moon palace in August, I might have see you!!
Im going soon!
On next trip to jamaica visit portland and buffbay they have nice beach.
It's a town really, not a city
"in spite of the Pilots tardiness???.....that's not too nice is it....he did his job perfectly and on time too.
Not good (for a professional)
A ship really does not need a pilot for this port. It is merely a legality. The dock is at the ocean not in a harbor or up a river.
@@Peggyt-jp6mt just because it seems easy on youtube doesn't mean its easy in real life....

When the ship arrive people take your bus to portland jamaica its nice beach to relax and friendly local.
