TOUR of a really big CONTAINER SHIP

TOUR of a really big  CONTAINER SHIP

So for the past few days I have been following a small container ship, that is crusing about the dutch canal ways. It had me wondering just how the different tasks and equipment would translate on a much larger vessel.

As of yet I have not found a live webcam on a larger container ship... but this young ship mate offeres a video tour of a large bulk carrier with some good insights of the layout.




It is very interesting to see that it takes 4-5 minutes walking speed to reach the front of the boat when you have started at the back .

So for some Mariner Vocabulary learned today

Back of the Ship - Aft
Front of the Ship - Forward

I will start a listing of all the new words learned, perhaps with little illustrations that help explain it to younger people too.


All for today ...
onward
