Thank you for the tour of your engine room well documented the best on YouTube

I enjoy this very much! As an engineer I have always had great curiosity with big ships and their engines. YouTube has opened up another world to see and learn the going's on in our societies.
Thank you for posting! 👍

I spent time in the engine room of several ships. One ship was powered by a triple expansion reciprocating steam engine (Liberty Ship), a tug with 4 Turbocharged Diesels driving DC generators, a steam turbine electric drive and a steam turbine direct drive through a reduction gear. All in the US Navy 60+ years ago.
Your engine room is bigger than all of those put together. The space is well kept and properly labeled. Even the box with a hand written label. Thanks for the video. Brings back memories.

What a display of machinery !!!!. It is like a factory, but packed tight (and tidy).

This reminds me of my 16 years at sea as a Marine Engineer Cadet to Second Engineer with a Chief Engineers certificate. Thank you for taking the time to annotate all the equipment and also for allowing the viewer to experience the ambient Noise of the engine room while underway. Why are the doors to the steering gear and emergency fire pumps tied open? {When I was at sea the Engine Room complement was Chief; 2nd; 3rd; 4th; Electrician + 3 Junior Engineer watchkeepers. If we were note rated for Umanned Machinery Spaces we would also have 3 Fireman/Oilers.}

Fantastic. I've only been in 1200lb steam plants on ships. (Navy) And V12 diesels on boats.(USCG) The ships diesel is as complicated and interesting as anything I've seen. Thank you for the walk through.

4:20 Safety First is fun...Those pipes represent a constant stumbling menace ...and what are those bins ? hydraulic fluids? lubricants? flammable? stored in a cave between electric motors & panels and a basket of nylon rope ?

It's amazing how much crap it takes just to move a ship from point A to point B!! all those pumps, filters, pipes, generators, coolers, turbines, on and on it goes!!
I own one link of a ships' anchor chain that a salvage outfit brought back from the ship breaking place in India, the link weighs 145 pounds! I wanted to get one of the large valves from the main engine but they didn't have any, and I wanted to get an engine order telegraph but didn't get around to it and the outfit was sold and all the telegraphs they had vanished off their web site.

The main engine sounds like a steam engine.

The steering gear room doors needs to be kept closed! Solas requirement
