    • @SimonXh
      @SimonXh 3 ปีที่แล้ว +13

      it doesn't fit 18'000 of these containers. it only fits 9'000. it's 18'000 of the 20 foot containers that it could fit. but the ones typically used on these ships and are visible on the picture are 40 foot. so half as many as they claim when saying "18'000 of THESE containers" while pointing at 40 foot containers. they could just as much say it fits 50 million containers while pointing at the 40 foot containers, actually speaking about tupperware plastic containers. but they want it to appear as large as possible so actual facts don't mean a lot to them.

      @SimonXh 3 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      they also cheated there. these are the numbers of the widest, highest and longest point of the ship. but depending on where on the ship the containers are (i. e. the front of the ship being more narrow, the ship's hull being higher towards its center or some parts of the ship being occupied by structures) many rows of containers never reach this height, width or length. the figures they use are just for dramatic effect. the video doesn't have any educational value. it's for entertainment just as all other videos of the series.

      Cavitation occurs when the pressure is lower than the vapor limit. One way is to increase the submergence of the propeller to increase the hydrostatic head, the other way is to increase the area of the blade and lower the speed of the propeller as pressure and velocity are inversely proportional.

    • @13dg
      @13dg 3 ปีที่แล้ว +3

      it kinda depends, but there is usually a procedure to follow.
      Nowadays someone on land uses a software to plan the cargo ditribution, according to different factors like weight, special conditions (dangerous cargo, perishable cargo, need for ventilation, etc...), unloading port, size (if it is 20 or 40 feet), etc...
      Usually the task of approving that plan is from an officer on board, usually Chief Officer. Then both crew and port operators have to work together to load and secure them, for that they follow a document that has the plan of the cargo to load and unload, and go by that document, to make sure everything is there.
      Obviously more complicated than saying it, and there is a ton of more documents related to the cargo, but i hope this gives an idea.

    That plant in Germany is essentially a foundry which is still popular here in UK, having worked at few last 10 years, that guy grinding/fettling via machine will be on a very good wage.
    You cant pick up anyone to do it especially for the work they do, if I had to guess he is minimum but probably more on £20 per hour I used to get around £14 and mine was by hand grinders, for not such magnitude of work, precision for him to do it is very good tbh where even people by hand would struggle.

    Weird, this insanely huge ship's official home port is the tiny, ancient fishing village I grew up in near Copenhagen..I knew the name of the ship before, but not it's home port...the text "Dragør" on the ship is larger than the village itself lol - well maybe not quite :D But I doubt "Marie" can sail within even 50 miles of it's home port, certainly docking there would be absolutely impossible...

      thats completely normal. I mean, there are ships registred in Switzerland, i doubt any of them would go there,.
      on the other hand, after 2020, i think i wouldnt be surprised anymore if they started flying there xD

    These ships are important not just for movement but also storage. A lot of goods that we buy are seasonal, eg christmas decorations in December, sun screen in June (northern hemesphere!) and the factories that make them need to operate all year round. By shipping goods on slow moving ships that may take months to get around the world you basically have a giant wharehouse to stash all those plastic Christmas trees coming of productions lines in July.

    • @jagboy69
      @jagboy69 2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Actually the journey itself is only a few weeks. They travel quite fast really. But then you have to add the month on each end sitting around waiting on loading operations.
