Well that was a case of Bait & Switch. Over eight minutes of video but never once did it give any info whatsoever about the living conditions aboard as the title stated. No insight into the crew’s quarters, the crew’s meals, the crew’s recreational facilities, or anything else about “life aboard.”

I live in Halifax Nova Scotia and get to see some of these Vessels from time to time and they are truly a sight to see . I get to see a lot of different ships come to port but these look the coolest .

I've worked with the dynamic positioning (DP) systems on these vessels for the past 15 years.

... sometimes during rainstorms ... wow :P

I'm working on Olympic Zeus (AHTS). I heard you talking about KL Sandefjord, this ship has changed owners and is called Aurora Sandefjord.

[adrianaamlidmadsen]

actually the sister ship aurora saltfjord have 7 tonns more in bollard pull (397 tonns)

[codmobile]

Working with this ship good salary and benefits but the task delivery are very precise and exhausting

1:29 i've been aboard this ship the siem opal :D

Up to 100 people?
That is a lie of great proportions.
On the contrary the crew is very small although some guests may be present.
There aren’t cabins or beds enough to accommodate 100 people.
I have been onboard on more anchor handlers and supply vessels than I can remember and I don’t think I have ever seen a crew of 20 or more members.

I didn't realize they could pull the ocean.

i want to buy, a Giant Anchor Handling Vessel if i can get a reputable ship builder to build me one of the modern ones. I want it to be a very large and powerful vessel and the hull painted Blue with orange superstructure with my name on the bow

[kjetilrosand]

A lot of wrong facts, but ok... But most who hasn't worked on one wouldn't know 😉

[mrjohno]

Showed a couple of PSV while talking about anchor handlers 😂

A desperate attempt to drag the video out past the 7 minute mark by saying the same thing a dozen times but using different words. Amateurish.

[jmyers]

American boats tried to go to the North Sea in the 70s and 80s but they couldn't do the job, the Norwegians, Dutch and German boats were built better.
