If the ship I’m on right now has an emergency and we need to abandon ship, how do we send distress signals for help? We simply do that by using one of the distress devices known as EPIRBs. Watch my latest YouTube video on How Ships Send Distress Signals to Satellites for Rescue Using EPIRBs. Please retweet.

I've always respected and admired Ireti Doyle, but after watching this interview, my respect for her deepened even more. I sincerely appreciate that she refused to oblige the interviewer. I strongly doubt that question was ever part of the agreed interview. It seemed the interviewer thought she could ambush Ireti with it, but I loved how Ireti stood her ground. Judging by her reaction, she clearly wasn't expecting that response. People just expect you to come online to wail. Imagine the question.

This is a free fall lifeboat. A free fall lifeboat is a fully enclosed lifeboat designed to get people away from a ship as fast as possible in an emergency where the ship is no longer safe for the crew. It looks a bit like a tough, oversized capsule sitting at an angle at the stern of the vessel, patiently waiting for the worst day at sea. When it’s time to launch, there is no slow lowering with ropes. The crew climbs in, straps up, and seals the hatch. With a single release, the boat slides down its ramp and drops freely into the sea. For a few seconds, it feels like falling off a cliff, then comes the splash and the lifeboat resurfaces, engine ready, moving away from danger. Fast, dramatic, and surprisingly effective.

The largest ship ever built. Jahre Viking, also known as Seawise Giant and Knock Nevis, stretched about 458 meters long and could carry over 560,000 tons. Too massive for the Suez or Panama Canal. From a supertanker to a floating storage unit, her life at sea was legendary.

Poseidon was probably angry 😡 yesterday. We ran into the kind of weather you don’t forget. It had been a long time since I last saw the ocean in this mood. The wind had passed, but what it left behind was a restless, angry sea. The swell was roughly 2 to 4 meters high. The ship was rolling heavily, tilting about 20–25 degrees off vertical, you can see it in the video. If to hold on to something tightly 😂 The wind was blowing at Force 9 on the Beaufort scale, a full gale, loud, and relentless. It’s been a long while since I faced weather like this. You only meet seas like this around this season, and when you do. I kind of miss it. Kindly follow me if you like contents like this. And on YouTube, I’ve been more intriguing contents:

This is Appomattox, the biggest oil rig platform. It is located in the Gulf of Mexico but was built in South Korea It took a total of seven years to build. It had to be transported across the oceans using the world largest marine transport vessel. This is impressive.

This video allegedly shows the moment the bulk carrier Eternity C sank in the Red Sea, with the footage reportedly released by Yemen’s Houthi rebels. It is the second vessel lost within days. Just 24 hours earlier, the Magic Seas, another Greek-owned, Liberian-flagged bulk carrier, was also reportedly sunk after a violent Houthi attack. These back-to-back incidents mark the sharpest escalation in the region since early 2024, with at least four seafarers confirmed dead, several injured, and others allegedly taken hostage. The Houthis have reportedly declared that any vessel with past or present links to Israel is a target, a position analysts warn could put one in six commercial ships at risk. Seafarers navigating this route are now at extreme risk.
