On A FISHING EXPEDITION - Germany's Biggest Deep-Sea Trawler | Full Documentary 

are you from maryland by any chance or the area

What do you do now?

@@flynnryan25 I gave up fishing when my daughter was born. Now working as a planner for a transport company.

I had no idea industriel fishing was this technical, just means i got more to learn to make something believable for my writting.

@@justinsmith4562 you crazy

wow . did you ever reach the horizon???

Ya no kidding. Fuck that job lol. Imagine realizing a week in that you hate it.

Pppppoooiy

❤❤❤love this wish I was there

I could live without ever eating fish again after seeing how miserable this job is.

​​@@a.azazagoth5413your right if fishing is not what you enjoy then its not going to be a fun job being there but when you get home to your family and see that your bank balance is at just over £10.000 a month it makes it all well worth it trust me

Coolkat - A little excitement is needed to liven up the end 🧐

Every fishing vessel breaks down or something crucial to fishing at least.They take such a beating while working, even when not work they are in a harsh salty environment. I grew up on Long Island in NY and the salty air rusted stuff quickly.

@@derekrohan9619 - I grew up on the coast of Norway, and have lived here for over half a century. The sea is salty here too, but there are no accidents or anything falling apart on every other trip. We have very hard conditions with storms and large wave heights since we fish in the North Sea and by Greenland and the North Ice. But fortunately we rarely have serious accidents, but then we also have strict controls of ships and equipment, and highly qualified sailors. But then we also have a very good sea rescue service in case something unfortunate should happen

No break no story. 😄

​@@haraldpettersen3649Every fishing boat has things break or fall off no matter where in the world you are fishing ask anyother real fisherman and they will tell you the same so that is utter crap what you say about nothing ever falling apart 😂😂

lol

ㅣ,

)))))))))))))))

I doubt there are many German local fishermen due to this beast of a ship. Pros and cons had by both techniques

And

​@@drudawg4208 we still have a good amount of local fishermen making a living with costal fishing within the shallower waters like the German Bight. But like everywhere else its a hard business with many tribulations that is slowly dying.The younger generations more likely choose more convient ways of making a living rather than do this backbreaking job.

It's a video. They can act however they want in a video. Means nothing long term

At one time I would of thought that to that they just put on a act for the camera I don't think that's the case here you can see it in there behavior they are well fed well cared for from the close they wore to there living areas first class all the way plus I heard I'm say there was a lot of brass on board I'm sure being of German decent my self no shit went on onboard that ship the other ships don't give a shit you can see it in the men's morals

@@bobforaker772"

You most definitely do not fish in British waters.

I’m from Seattle too. Hopefully in the future all cultures in the world will value the existence of nature and will chill out on hideous vessels like this. It should be renamed The Apocalypse.

Ccocccc

...with todays Cargo Ships....maybe. Back in the 70ties and 80ties when I was on multiple German Cargo Ships we where Able Body Seaman as well.

@@MarcoPolo-ol2lz Winch?!

​@@davemillman4318yea you know that bro haha

Crazy the amount of babies born. THAT is the problem. No people, no extinction of wild animals. Maybe we should use all these nuclear weapons. Problem solved, humans gone.

@@voornaam3191 yeah aggree, but you should start from yourself

there are parts of sea now completely empty...we are gonna eat the whole earth one day I am telling you

@@voornaam3191 the problem is capitalism, not the babies born.

@@giorgiogiorgi932 the problem is consumerism, which is a huge issue everywhere in the 1st world, not just capitalist countries.

Let him learn to pronounce u, ui and eu. That will make sea miles of a difference. That man named Kuijt is a mean one. We Dutch have an ij. But his name simply means Kuit, or Roe in the UK. Great name for a fisherman. Fish eggs.

@@voornaam3191 Thanks for the correction

There is a very understandable misunderstanding here. Namely, Dutch vs Deutsch. In the USA, we refer to the Netherlands (Nederlands) as the Dutch people, who speak the Dutch language. We refer to the Deutschland as Germany, and the people as Germans, who speak the German language.

Don’t care lol

God bless New York!!! The greatest state in America 🤘

GO BILLS!😁

You can smell a whining liberal a mile away😭

That must have been quite a 'scene' that you saw.

We … *need* to pull all the fish out of the ocean? Hmm.

@@rabblerousin8981 not all but just enough my green face friend. It's called survival. 💪

Does that mean does fishes harvested a natural and not culture farm fishes? Do you mean no one or country is responsible for those reproduction?

No they have quotas so they dont overfish them. Well countries in northern europe have it that way. Also the ships are not gonna be much bigger than they are today.

@@arnar1872 quotas exist everywhere and fish stocks are lowering every year. soon these ships will fish sand. they go fishing further and further, they almost reached north pole. then they go fishing into space. this kind of fishing shoukd be banned because it is not sustainable. these documentaries are a shame.

@Ryker they are neither abundant not in gigantic numbers. stocks are lowering everywhere, thats why quotas and distant spots. study.

Totally agree, They just don't want to change there ways as the technology does exist...i mean trawling is one of worst and has been proven. I watched a doco recently about the regulations and enforcement and they basically said we can't put officials on boats anymore as too many go missing out at sea and the only option is what some places are doing and using the military and private companies to control the fishing (but then you get pirates)...To me its like when people say the UN should step they can't as they rely on countries armies and if they don't want to help its shit...yet you don't seem them embargo countries anymore that do bad shit.

Looking forward to it

it is very weird tho, german companies are supposed to have high standards and dutch shipyards are also supposed to be top notch

As a marine engineer and surveyor for many years and, having seen failures of different sorts, the loss of a rudder is unusual. I would suggest that before making a statement "purely lack of maintenance" that you further investigate and determine the cause of what appears to have been the rudder stock failure. Experience will tell you that the root cause of a casualty or failure is often not what appears to be your first thought without all the facts. More facts would have been uncovered during the investigation. For example what was seen of the rudder stock fracture surface? When was the rudder stock last removed for inspection per Class requirements? What inspections on the rudder stock during the last examination were carried out? UT, MPI etc.? What metalurgical analysis was carried out on the fracture surface? Keep your mind open until you have all of the facts. If you know more facts from your personal examination or observations then you may speak with some knowledge, if not then your suggestion of cause is a bit premature. Perhaps, Welt has followed up and can provide additional findings to the viewers of this well done documentary.

@@johnattersley2135 would watch "episode 2 - investigation" at anytime

@@johnattersley2135 so true. Well said.

Indeed, trying to save some pennies...

They cast nets using sonar... so they know whats below them

@@rash15 bullshit. this is non selective fishing, highly destructive.

This is pelagic fishing, in the free water column, not close to the bottom. Sonars helps to determine which species of fish the schools consists of, so they can target herring pretty well. But of course there's bycatch. We saw the guy filleting a whiting for example.

One of the other videos that RU-vid auto played showed that very big things go, because it’s slow. And other things caught are also processed, noted declared and sold.

Forest, is that you? .... lol

@Hello Steve how are you doing?

@@lydiaanderson582 Doing well and you?

@@stevemolina8801 Good Hope we get to know each other with time and patience. Do you mind suggesting any means we talk off here more often if you don't mind?

@@lydiaanderson582 🐱🐟🤣😂

Watch out Steve il give it a week and she will be asking for money 😅🤣

No it’s not

use SLAVE LABOR

@@StephenMortimer , slave labor?

Thats why the Somali pirates are pirates no fish left for them after the massive trawlers raped their fishing stock

@@TheSilmarillian Cry me a river. They don´t want to work, thats why they became pirates.

@@davecopp9356 There is always two sides to a coin

or maybe they forgot to tighten the bolts ;)

Maybe a submarine shadowing the ship caused the rudder loss....lol

@@jameskamoet7679during peacetime submarines may not dive within the vincinity of commercial waterways under any circumstances. The English Channel and especialy the dover calais strait are the most dangerous waterways since they are full of shipwrecks, mines and bombs from WW II. It is estimated that aprox. 250 million metric tons of military ordnance is still in place threatening the commercial shipping

@@Evangelion81 If only those rubber dinghy's would hit those mines...

It’s a mid water trawler that targets specific fish such as Herring and Mackerel, but yeah it is overfishing!

@Hello Fernando how are you doing?

ok

It was built in Germany i suppose

@@ovell6690 it was built in Spain

An this is the reason why the Dutch ( and the rest of the EU) want access to UK waters. They have already hoovered up everything with fins in EU waters, there is nothing left there.

@@spooky4985 all the fish goes to rice people, so dont worry. soon the uk waters will be emptied too

@@spooky4985 ach hou je kop ga ergens anders zijken

​@@joec4871the number is dwindling you f#@k

Bro if you’re vegetarian just say so

@@James-hl9rm Blame the cannabis!! You got the message though!! How's my spelling now!?

⁠@@joec4871you go count and tell us there’s enough, if that’s how you think you can find that out 🤷🏼‍♀️ do you actually think this planet isn’t dying?
