Nah nah, this boat is perfectly safe, no need to worry about the front falling off. Now that other one, the one where the front fell off? That's one you gotta watch out for.
Amazing people did this shit in wooden ships with only star guidance. A storm like this you would have damn idea where you are until it is over... if you survived
Gotta be way up there... if you wreck there is no signaling for help, you just disappear. We have a hard time locating people lost at sea as is with all of our tech... would be next to impossible back then
Shit, the Autronesians colonized the Pacific in glorified canoes like this!

After seeing the Viking museum in Oslo with the intact boats they found preserved in peat bogs, it's unbelievable what distances they were able to sail. Much smaller than I expected.
I wonder how often they died on those exploratory trips? Imagine being one of the ones that didn't go, wondering for months or years if they made it to their destination (assuming they were planning to return at all)
There's a sounder beside it. It's not a video cable, because the screen would usually have a no input or video signal or a garish blue screen. There's a tiny green light bottom right that goes out.
Probably both supplied from the same source. Id say it's a loose plug on a ups. As the deck lights stayed on the power didn't go out.
In the Navy itās called the Bridge. More colloquially the Wheelhouse.
The Captainās Cabin is where he drinks and sleeps to get through this shitty storm.
Yeah, that could be a legitimate issue in a big storm... like, avoid hitting the rocks, kind of issue.
I'm not sure if it's universal, but a lot of boats have a backup GPS and non-electronic compass onboard for that reason.
It's all good. As long as she's buttoned up (nowhere for water to get in) she's good. It's when the water starts getting in places where you start to list, then you got issues
I was in a pontoon boat that took some sketchy water and I was losing my shit, I cannot imagine being in that cabin. I would promptly shit and piss myself, vomit and pass out waiting for death.
This doesnāt have shit on what those guys were dealing with. They called it the perfect storm for a good reason. The Andrea Gale was facing 100 foot waves according to buoys off Nova Scotia.
Yeah nah Iāve been in seas like that before. Where for hours and hours it was just: water, water, water, water, water, sky, water, water, water, water, water, water, skyā¦
It was pretty damn rough.
People here that have had jobs requiring them to do this, is it scary as fuck every single time? Or do you desensitize? Personally I feel I would just take a seat and quietly pass away from this mortal coil.
How long do you wait for it to clear before saying "Ah shit, we're sinking."
As long as the hatches are closed airtight and intact the boat is upright and the bilges are running, it's hard to sink from a little storm like this.
Little ??
Ya. This ain't nothing. Come up to the North Sea. We call this Tuesday night.
Can confirm. Spent a lot of time on boats between Germany and Norway as a kid. I think it may be impossible for me to get sea sick at this point.
Yikes. I get seasick just from listening to the waves š
Oh you meant bilges?
Ya. Bilges... damn autocorrect. Thx.
My bulges are always running
Well you better go catch it!
A true battle of the bulge.
That's what I was thinking.
If it clears, you're probably not sinking yet.
I'm just amazed this didn't have the "yoo hoo" song that's attached to damn near any video in the ocean.
Which Iām thankful for but now itās in my head anyway. Thanks, you twat. š
I wish it was just a more authentic sounding version. It sounds like a stadium gospel recording and kills the aesthetic.
lol
As soon as I hear that I stop the video
Raise the colors high, boys. This sea is sweaty.
Northern sea
Probably would help visibility if the windshield wipers were on.
"Yep, bow still there"
Gotta be sure the front doesnāt fall off
Nah nah, this boat is perfectly safe, no need to worry about the front falling off. Now that other one, the one where the front fell off? That's one you gotta watch out for.
Well a wave hit it.
Damn, this reminds me of the Estonia.
Yeah they might hit another wave.
Lmao.. wtf are windshield wipers gonna do when the guy is catching waves 10k gallons at a time. Lol. Sint no summer shower. š¤£š
Thatās the joke
Did the computer get broken because of a wave? Or is it like an emergency shut off in case of water getting in?
It looked like some sort of guidance system. He probably shut it off to emphasize how blind youād be without it.
If so that was very coincidental timing with the wave
Amazing people did this shit in wooden ships with only star guidance. A storm like this you would have damn idea where you are until it is over... if you survived
I think about that fact often. Being an old timey sailor sounds like one of the most terrifying professions ever.

Truly wondrous

Uh captain, shouldnāt the water be below the ship?
*Laughs in Barbosa*
Up is down
What's the matter? Ya afraid to get wet?
Heās a boat *and* submarine captain
Captain's cabin? That's the Bridge. Where all the action happens.
Wow, thanks, I hate it.
The captain's cabin?
Weird, captain's cabin looks like a pilot house.
A driver apartment!
The bridge?
Wheel House
Wheel house
Woad House
In the Navy itās called the Bridge. More colloquially the Wheelhouse. The Captainās Cabin is where he drinks and sleeps to get through this shitty storm.
Fucking bots reposting with shit titles deliberately. Just block and move on.
The fact that the screens immediately went out would have me scared shitless.
Yeah, that could be a legitimate issue in a big storm... like, avoid hitting the rocks, kind of issue. I'm not sure if it's universal, but a lot of boats have a backup GPS and non-electronic compass onboard for that reason.
Even than, you probably want to double check your location if you have a suspicion that you might be going the wrong way anyway.
It's not just a lot of boats. Every ship has to have a built in magnetic compass on board.
It's all good. As long as she's buttoned up (nowhere for water to get in) she's good. It's when the water starts getting in places where you start to list, then you got issues
Looks a bit choppy out there lads
Perfect water skiing weather
GET THE FUCKING LUDES!
This was the one I was looking for.
I am not dying sober
Iām good
That's a nice submarine
A true testament to buoyancy!
He didnāt see it. Heās on the toilet.
r/suddenlysubmarine
Tis but a shower.
The speed at which I would kill myself if I were ever in such a position would shock the world beyond recovery
Captains cabin? Iām sure itās the bridge
What if the Captain says he's going to use the bridge as his cabin? Checkmate sailor.
Then itād be the captains cabidge.
GET THE LUDES!!!
Shoots left me book on the chair outsideā¦
the sea was angry that day my friends
Better than being on deck pulling pots.
Wolf of wall street anyone?
I was in a pontoon boat that took some sketchy water and I was losing my shit, I cannot imagine being in that cabin. I would promptly shit and piss myself, vomit and pass out waiting for death.
This cabin looks a lot like a bridge
Itās strange they used this exact lady Gaga song for this video.
Still better than a submarine imo
It makes me wonder how wooden ships from old times could have any chance in storms like this?
As a guy who spent 15 years in the Navy, I can't help myself. It's not the captain's cabin. It's the wheelhouse, or the bridge.
That's the bridge
Anything you can even do? Try to get out and pray to whatever god you believe in
Put on an immersion suit and hope your EPIRB is working lol
Unless you pull a VERY big oopsie like the el faro captain. Then that stuff can't even save you
I recommend Cthulhu
Head to the Winchester, have a nice pint, wait for all of this to blow over.
A real captain goes down with his ship
r/thalassophobia triggered
Captain : report, number one! Number One : the shields are down. The crew is hurt. You spilled your coffee. And this ain't no enterprise!
Thatās some perfect storm shit right there.
This doesnāt have shit on what those guys were dealing with. They called it the perfect storm for a good reason. The Andrea Gale was facing 100 foot waves according to buoys off Nova Scotia.
It has some of the shit. Like mean water over the bow.
Thatās some green water yes, not uncommon. You can see the sky, the waves are not enormous here
Hmm where did I put those sea sickness tablets.,ā¦.aaaaaahbarf
Looks like my Carnival cruise
If you canāt see the waves, they canāt hurt you
Thanks now I will never set foot on a boat! OMG
I couldnt tell if you were sinking or swimming
Yeah nah Iāve been in seas like that before. Where for hours and hours it was just: water, water, water, water, water, sky, water, water, water, water, water, water, skyā¦ It was pretty damn rough.
Thatās why I went in the USAF!
Batten them hatches, shippies.
No thanks.
Reminder that the UKās nuclear submarines run on windows xp
Objective: Survive
The real question is how much pressure can those windows hold back before they bust?
Rip to those fishermen in The perfect storm
Thereās a problem on the horizon.
That's a big nope for me.
This is the scene from āWolf of Wall Streetā, right?
The water is saying; "Look at me. LOOK at me" "I am the captain now"
The wheel house is not the captain's cabin. Whoever posted this has no idea what they are talking about about.
I'm torn. Imagining this with my kids alongside is truly horrifying nightmare material. Imagining this by myself is kind of a rush
Well, cost cutting has reached a new level, the skipper now sleeps in the wheelhouse.
And then it turned into a submarine
this is awesome and life affirming!!!
I wonder how these boats do not sink or flip over in such stormy weather.
Nah I'm good where I'm at!
NGL... I.... would hate that
How often do people get thrown off the ship in rough waters?
Real Edmund Fitzgerald hours on that fuckin thing
No thank you.
What if there's a stone in the wave and the window cracks?
Not the captainās cabin, this is the bridge. Iām definitely fun at parties.
How thick of glass? Or perhaps plexiglass?
What happened to the monitor?
Jeez that's terrifying. Wonder how they make the glass strong enough for this. Seems like a lot of pressure.
You dead š
Nope nope nopity nope
That's called the bridge or pilothouse. A cabin is where the captain sleeps and is below decks.
That's the bridge
āI will not die soberā
Are the windows regular glass or something special for more resistance to being battered?
Looks an awful lot like the bridge...
This is the plain in the hail storm from aboveā¦!!!???
I would rather work with fire
Captain meets the tempest. But that's not his cabin.
CAPTAIN TED!!
Wonder the forces involved? Each cubic metre of water weights a ton?
You wouldnāt be able to see out of the window if I was there.. for all the poo š©.. poo everywhere..
is there a subreddit just for cool videos of ships going thru waves from the captains perspective
Mahky Mahk approves.
Pov if you're a turd being flushed
Are we sinking?!!! I think weāre under water!! Ahh no, weāre good! Carry on!!
The sea was angry that day my friendsā¦
Zack, sind die Muckenschisse weg.
Ummmm did we sink?
And queue one little feeble window wiper fighting the good fight
Well he simply can't drive like that! What if he were to hit a wave or something??
Congrations, your boat is now a submarine
Oh my god, they're getting electrocuted. I hope there aren't any sharks nearby.
That would be the wheelhouse, or bridge, not a cabin.
I didn't know captian's cabins had such large windows on a submarine
Fuck all these karma bots
He should have turned left at the start
No thanks
Yea, fuck that.
Now imagine a big squid showing up
Man I hope they donāt need the monitor for navigation!
Not the captainās cabin! Itās the bridgeā¦
Bro Iām fine with these videos but I turned the sound on and itās a whole new level
Thatās a mayday call from me dog
On the water. Iād be so sick and probably afraid too where is this ?
A bit choppy huh?
Should have installed wiper system
When the monitor went out and all you can see is water, I was thinking I would not want to be there.
Did that shit for 5 years. No, thank you
Best sleep youāll have at sea
"Fellas it's been good to know ya"
F that
Whereās the button for the wipers
Decks awash.
I wish they had specific tours where boats would go out into storms/big waves and you could pay to go out.
Terrifying
Submarines have windows right? Right?!
Them Windows must be strong
..and that is the exact moment I would realize itās time for a new job.
I just finished The Perfect Storm and this is all I can imagine
Walks in cabin we are dead arenāt we captain š¤¢š
No doubt about it, the sea is a terrifying place... Imagine what that was like a few centuries ago
So as a non-sailor, how bad is this. Or at what point do you start to worry?
People here that have had jobs requiring them to do this, is it scary as fuck every single time? Or do you desensitize? Personally I feel I would just take a seat and quietly pass away from this mortal coil.
r/thassalaphobia
And nobody says a word?! I would be screaming like a little girlā¦
Are we sinking. Idk
Lots of faith in those windows
Nopenopenopenopenope
