Over 90% of the world's trade is carried by sea. Follow along a day in the life of a cargo ship Deck Officer aboard the Maersk Montana as the ship prepares to set sail from Charleston, South Carolina for Houston, Texas. The container ship has finished cargo operations but the channel has been closed due to dense fog. As the 0400-0800 and 1600-2000 watch officer, I will take you along my day as I stand a foggy port watch in the morning, and navigational bridge watch in the evening. See the various meals we eat onboard, the cabin accommodations, and some of the shipboard operations that take place as we set sail from Charleston.

"Things you never knew you were interested in."

There's something so intensely magical about a ship and port when it's still dark out. Loved every second of this 👍
-
As a maritime student, it's actually awesome when something that is taught in school is applied in real life. Can't wait to be in a ship one day!

I wonder why YouTube decided to suggest this to me today.. 🤔

I work in the shipping industry myself, not on a vessel but I take care and supply a fleet of more than 50 tankers operating worldwide. (sea charts, log books etc.) Really refreshing to see what a day on a vessel really looks like. Greetings from Germany

One of the many jobs that quietly make the world go round. Really interesting! I will check more of your channel.

It's fascinating to see how other people live their lives. Thanks for sharing, sir.

I’m a pilot for United Airlines and I find the shipping industry fascinating. Keep making videos

Went out and look for 'the life on a containership' to find out how those guys live who are stuck in the Suez canal... So now I know! 👍

You just know a lady like that is going to cook you some good food.

Seems personality is a huge factor aboard such working ship. As an old dude, Bryan I believe you have tons more communicative power than many doctors I’ve had over the years. You instill calm, confidence in your abilities, skill sets, moreover a deep sense of self that transfers good vibes towards others. You make people feel all is well in your world. I world until now I never realized. Thank You 🙏 Bakersfield, California

Bryon, I just discovered your channel and subscribed, I've followed a couple similar channels and enjoyed them. It's been over a half century since I served on 3 different ships in the 60's (Electrician) and it's a treat for me to "go back to sea" in my old age , on YT, with the benefit of 4K, image stabilized camera's and people like you. Entering and leaving ports and following on Google Earth is almost like being there, thank you for your effort.
