Touring A Modern Day Cargo Ship | Life At Sea

Life At Sea In The Merchant Marine Aboard A Cargo Ship

Over 90% of the world's trade is carried by sea. Come tour one of the many cargo ships essential to our global economy.

Welcome aboard the Maersk Ohio, a 958 foot containership built in 2006, as it sails across the North Atlantic Ocean from the East Coast of the United States to Northern Europe. Experience both first person and aerial perspectives of almost every part of this massive machine.

Filmed using the DJI Mavic 2 Pro, Apple iPhone 11 Pro, and DJI Osmo Mobile 3.

The older I get, the more these virtual tours are making me want to drop what I'm doing now and get out there to experience it all firsthand.

First time seeing a cargo ship from inside

[stewartwaymon]

Spent 33yrs. in the industry, started with U.S. LINES and this is about the best video I have seen.
Keep up the great work Bryan! (Retired in 2006 with MAERSK/ SEALAND)

Nothing is more relaxing then watching a good old documentary and with a nice cup of coffee. Much respect for these brave people who do this.

Finally, a Perfect, clear video that shows everything and is clear without loud music or excess talking! Thank you!! Awesome job!

[floraaficianado]

VERY impressive! You have done a marvelous job panning the camera, accompanied with uplifting music, as you skillfully shed light on a modern-day perspective of maritime trade that which is deeply rooted in our collective, ancient, DNA past. Me thinks YOU ARE the unwitting spokesman for an industry all too often taken for granted! At 18:50; loved the fluid and artful angle of the containers suddenly becoming a mosaic against the ocean as you panned from up high…well done! Imagine an ancient mariner transported to “the now” to see all this! No one would believe such a fish story! Many thumbs up Bryan – continue to fling this door wide open – KUDOS!

The upper deck was so clean. I always thought cargo ships were dirty, rusty and with a thousand parts strewn all over the deck. Very impressed, excellent production. Eat your heart out Mayflower!

[Fathoms_of_Pearls]

Very impressive. Such a big place. When going below deck to cargo hold almost felt the cold. Got a real feel of respect for workers on ships now. Appreciate the work it takes to bring exports in to our country. Takes special people that is for sure.

Thank you Bryan for your video. I sailed on Maersk Ohio for 7 years since we came from Maersk Vermont in 2006 and reflagged her until 2014 when I retired from sea. I was 4x8 watch with Chris all this time. I will always miss Ohio. You made my day.

[razzer_thorben]

5:35 the smile of the cook truly made my day

[ladyrazorsharp]

A formidable lady is the Maersk Ohio! Long may she sail!

Ships are such a beautifully designed engineering masterpiece 😀

[AB-dmwj]

I still watch this video, 2 years on; it is compelling and beautifully filmed.

[Jockinoz]

I signed up with the British Merchant Navy, back in 1967. I got my first ship shortly after, called SS Suevic, sailing under the Shaw Savill line. Unfortunately I met a young lady in Fiji in the early 70s so this put a stop to my career. Since that day to now ( 2022 ) I have thought of my time at sea. Oh to be young again. 😢

[TruVlogTv]

wow, there must be a million things that could go wrong on that ship, all the working pieces. It’s actually a mastermind architectural masterpiece. this has nothing on the basics of a clock or even a plane

[beckycl]

Worked for 12 years in Maersk and only once I got the full ship tour. Good memories of great experiences. Once blue, always blue!!

[keka]

Fascinating video. It is easy to forget how advanced human engineering really is until you watch something like this. Thank you for sharing

[josecarlosoliveira]

Over 40 yrs travelling the seas i still love to2watch it

[brianphelan]

Thank you for this rare opportunity. Great cinematography!
