Imperial Princess in the Storm [4K] 

They got 2 grains of rice extra for their evening meal that day.

I worked on these yachts for years, they pay very well. The crew are mostly English, Aussie, Sth African etc and $100,000 a year is not unusual. My average tip from guests was $2,000 USD

Compliments to all members and crew.....hope all safe?

@@purge98 It's their job man, they get paid well for that. What do you suggest, to let it break on the rocks ? The whole crew will loose their job and never get one in the industry while the owner will get a new boat.

Thanks!

Gracias y bienvenido!

Thanks, Oscar!

Thanks!

I suspect quite a lot of the guys working the lines are the Marina Marineros.

Thanks!

strong breeze off the South Gare .... UTB :)

I doubt it.. They were using that dock to walk the line along the docks to the final tie up location on the distant shoreline. But it did, (for a moment). Look, like they would leave it tied to that flimsy, modular clip together creation.

Yachts For Sale why??? They're doing what they get paid for.....their job

Because a thank you for a job well done is nice..............it give the employee the feeling of being valued. Which in turn motivates them to work even better for them. It's part of what the germans call Menschenführung or leadership. (number 6) www.actioncoach.com/Ten-Principles-of-Leadership?pressid=665 itmanagersinbox.com/1680/20-leadership-principles-every-manager-needs/ People work not just to gain money to survive, but also to feel useful. Which means they take even the worst jobs, as with them they can for example ensure the survival of their family, which means they are useful to them. In short, not even saying thank you is a dick move, saying thank you costs you nothing, why shouldn't you do it? And it gains you, as people will do their best for you, not do DNV (Dienst nach Vorschrift or work to rule) en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Work-to-rule If you don't do it, you will tell your people and employees that they are not worth the breath it costs you to say those two words.......... I hope you can see that while we are, in part, talking about feelings, this is me trying to appeal to your logos, not your emotions.

Whose reasoning? Mine or Fimuingzeus's? As far as I'm concerned think that whole tipping business in the US stinks....... Basically forces people into a subservient, almost submissive position, to avoid loosing that tip. And is an easy way for employers to not pay their employees for their work. I'm from germany, where they get their wage, and what they get as tip, which is voluntary, is theirs to keep on top of that. (Base rule in germany minimum of 10%, or keep the change, whatever is higher. So if you pay 118 € and give 120, and say keep the change, aka a tip of 2€ you're being a dick. Either tip right or don't do it. Jepp an aquataince had that happen to her, was done by a dud in pinstrips/a dud in a suit.)

The owner couldn't give 2 f*cks about the crew and how hard they work. He pays them to do a job. Motivation=$$$

Gracias Jordi!

Claro, gracias!

was thinking the same thing on all points

Perfect!

Obviously, it's not the captains decision to simply fire up the engines and go waste hours of fuel riding out a storm that once he starts he can't change his mind and redock the ship. And adding lines isn't a matter of "will it last" It's a matter of back up in case any one or more lines might break. I'd rather the crew put out 10 bow lines than stick with 2 bow, 2 stern and 1 stringer and hope they all hold.

The long line is there to help keep the bow from yawing from side to side. Eventually one of the bow anchors could pull out. Even so, I’d have a tough time relaxing if I was responsible for the ship as long as that storm blows.

You're a fool. And so are the 35 landlubbers that up-voted this comment. This is a pleasure yacht, not a Royal Navy Frigate, aircraft carrier, oil rig or tugboat. What you describe would NEVER work! The boat already has five lines out to 100-ton concrete blocks in the harbor. Tying anchors to a floating ball and tow them.... tow them with what? One of your tugboats? Fuel up and move out of the harbor? You'll never get a fuel truck to deliver on a day like that. It would be foolish to try to fuel up that day. When the wind blows across the water, it makes waves. Little wind = little waves. Big wind = big waves. HUGE WIND = HUGE WAVES. That boat never would have survived outside that harbor and it would have been foolish to depart. Imperial Princess: 40m, GRP, 250 Tons, 2x MTU 12V @ 3500hp = 7,000HP Royal Navy Type 23 Frigate: 130m, STEEL, 5,000 Tons, 4x 2,000HP Diesel Generators = 8,000HP + 2x 4,000HP Electric Motors = 8,000HP and 2x Rolls Royce gas turbines = 26,000HP. Can you understand now why the Imperial Princess shouldn't leave the dock?

I use a similar platform for my Zodiac: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-jSGqRgcr1b0.html

Those have been around for at least a decade (10 years) far as I know.

they're super useful.. whoever came up with the idea and patented it first made a mint!! I have two ski's and my local marina charges $1,000 a season per jet-ski for use of those.. big money makers! needless to say I trailer mine on and off at each use. lol

Thanks!

Your welcome. We would appreciate a subscribe and perhaps doing some collaborating if you are interested?

Thanks!

Station keeping in gale force winds? riiiiiight

lmfaooo

You might have never heard of it but wind tends to change direction quite often.

This is a semi-custom hull superyacht. Great boat as a great price point for the size.

Penis? Small?

They are morning lines, probably fixed to slab of concrete. You said you had a boat?? Lol, you don't "drop anchor and hope they catch".

Some trash or seaweed I imagine

g g just enjoy the video for fuck sakes.

sirlandsalot 🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂

I think they know what they're doing and don't need someone youtube telling them lol...

Some of us who do this type of stuff comment for analysis for our future endevors....trolls living in mums basement read comments and look to cause drama

@@gg9960 Sure... Patronising a crew who are extremely experienced on a real yacht... not just one they see on youtube.

Andy Askew The yacht is big, but in the sea , in a storm no less... it’s just a dingy... bad seas and a storm would take this down in a minute! Watch the videos of giant cruise ships in stormy and rough seas. Scary as hell!

A harbour like this has a lot of ropes and chains on the bottom so anchors would just tangle, hence the mmoring lines you see at the front. Besides they have to be dropped at a distance and dug in by pulling them until they set.

It's common in the Mediterranean to moor stern to a wall or pier, with lines forward going to moorings on the bottom.
