This episode is just normal life onboard the container ship while we were in the ports in Europe. I hope you all enjoy riding along with me. Please consider subscribing to see more content from the channel.
hi jeff. i am a crane driver at the port of tacoma, it is so cool to see the rest of the world through your eyes !! i always enjoy watching the cargo operations going on. that's right up my alley. thank you.
What could be better than waking up on a Monday to a Jeff on board video love watching these videos thanks you Jeff for making them take care and I’ll look forward to seeing the next one ❤
I can't say how much your support is appreciated. I think the next video I will post a ship spotting video again because I have so much footage. Thank you as always my friends..😎⚓️🚢
Well I'm glad you found the channel and that you are enjoying it and hopefully there will be more videos coming out soon that you will also enjoy. Thanks again for taking time to comment.
Yes Christmas was okay. We were just sitting at the dock in Germany relaxing. Of course it would be better not to be at work but considering the facts it was not too bad.
Hello John thank you for stopping by as always and yes it is good to be home. I'm going to take my physical examination and hopefully everything will be good so I can go back to Brazil.
No I won't be going there soon. I am back home on vacation now and while I am away on the ship I always post the short videos because that is all I am able to do while working out at sea. I posted many shorts.
Hi Jeff, have you ever called into Southampton when travelling to Europe? When younger, I attended a boarding school in Devon and every year the trawlermen from Brixham, would host a trawler race. The vessel I was on, the crew left the race and we boarded one ship and made welcome by the crew. Climbing back down the Jacobs Ladder for this 15 year at the time was quite exhilarating, coming down off a large vessel and onto a small fishing vessel with the English Channel beneath you.
Wow, thank you for the comment and sharing the awesome story. Also yes I have been to South Hampton, but not recently and I remember golfing at a place not far away I think it was called Dibden. I would love to get back...
I love Germany during the holidays. The Christmas Markets, the folks selling great food on the streets, and the mulled wine and hot chocolate. Those pilots are nuts, delivered by boat or chopper. I know they get paid incredibly well but they earn every penny of it.
Hey what's up Jerry? Always good to see you and yes it is always fascinating to me as well how they logistically do all these things. Mind blowing really.😎⚓️🚢
They don't pay those pilots enough for the balls of steel that job requires and yeah, you were very lucky to not get slammed by a North Atlantic winter cyclone.
Yes I am home now. the long videos I can't post until I get home. That's why I posted a lot of short videos at sea so I have things to post but I am home on vacation now.
@@JeffOnboard works for us , we’re always glad to get caught up ,I usually figure it out after watching a couple clips haha….enjoy your break we will be looking for more !
Well I thank you so much and please know that it's much appreciated and I will try to have another video posted next quick. Thank you again mojo.!!!😎⚓️🚢
@@JeffOnboardMostly on ROROs and ferries, and on a few deck carriers as a deck officer. Always wanted to be an engineer, though. My certificates are still valid, so I guess I'll be going back soon. I can't seem to be able to resist the call of the sea! 🤣
I am considering this and in future posts would love an understanding of what your cabin was like? Or anything about options inside the ship? Is there a common lounge? Anyhow....scanned thru and didn't see that...that was what I was most curious about. Thanks!
Look around the channel I have posted cabin tours I think two different times and I will be doing it again this time and I have shown many other things around the ships as well you have to look at the videos on the channel
Just the other day in a vlog I am working on now I showed the gym and I will be showing some other things as well and I appreciate the ideas but look back in the channel you will see two different rooms for sure and I will be showing the one I am in now as well... I am trying to do a live stream this Sunday AT 1000 east coast USA TIME and I will show my room
There are a lot of documents you need to get and things you need to do. I would also highly recommend a training program. You need things like: TWIC,, MMC document, US Passport, physical and drug clearance, basic safety course STCW, USCG medical cert...etc
