heavy seas (swedish tanker) 1

[rabbit98999]

Just curious, I assume you cannot be on deck during this or get swept overboard?

[karamazovnew]

Amazing, such a small ship and no roll at all!

[KonChul]

I could watch this forever.... It calmns me from where im sitting ;)

[LordSnow1488]

what ship is that 1? weight?

[afghi420]

waves arent that big there

[SittingMooseShaman]

...nice lookin' ship- well ordered.

[eversorgod]

Chuck norris's bath has bigger waved than that

[pataljoonassi]

Det är jävla hårt väder.

[omfgwtfleethaxzors]

Heliga makaroner! När och var är det? :O

[MrAllan9081]

its just a small vessel thats why it creates big waves

[LOLDISNEYLAND]

fuuuuucccccckkkkk!!! Thats insane!

[HigherWaysWoman]

WOW GREAT FOOTAGE!! I can hear a whinning/winding that resembles the sound of the propeler coming up out of the water and seems to do this when the bow is going down. Does this happen with such huge ships? Glad you all were ok...2 thumbs up!

[donphobos]

Det är nästan mellan-kanon! Fint väder kan man säga :-)

[007TruthSeeker]

Good camera work, and long enough to provide a real taste of conditions that day.

Thank you!

[mojonapalm]

Морские волки. Круто !!!

[EF2000CanFly]

How many knots are you making way?

[elvarbuk]

North sea is so fucked up at the winther:P

vivi la Norway

[bpethke]

In winter time it can be a daily routine

[HurstVideos]

do the waves look much larger in real life? like i bet alot of people would crap their pants on waves like these.

[urgrandmomma11250]

that would be me... :)

[ajlisknillat]

[cruisemate]

Yes I agree anyone who stop correcting under 30 deg rolling is a sissy.

And over 30 its just put on a safety harness and keep correcting :-)

[Mitraeltheprophet]

is this an everyday routine for ships like this?

[alics134]

no but its pretty often like this

[tomaspir]

excellent video.

could you tell me, whats the name of the company that owns the vessel? thnx

[alics134]

This is from M/V Furenas which are owned by Furetank, Sweden

[tomaspir]

@alics134 thanks buddy fyi :)

Deco, I was a cadet for 4 months, and know exactly what you mean. After working 10+hour shifts you dont care about anything except sleep, especially when working in the motorroom. I've been in 4 of these storms (and alot worse). No excape except the lowest point in the ship

[gabrielosil2]

I'd love see this in person.

[cruisemate]

Ps. Our littel female cook says it is difficult to make pancakes in this kind of weather ds.

[FireplayerStas]

i wish be there

[becky334]

if this is nice weather i want to know what bad weather is like. Ship ohoj sailor! what do you need some training to work on that ship?

[3x0rcyst3m]

arent ships supposed to go around this type of weather, or is it just cruise ships that avoid it?...

[JOSH15492]

generally yes but ships cant really out run weather and it is very unpredictable.

[cruisemate]

Also you have a cargo to deliver.... and the ship can take it.... you only go around if you think it is faster or that it is so bad the ship can´t take it.

No passengers to worry about.... And we can take it ! :-)

[cruisemate]

Yup.... 2-3 year seaman school or 4 year maritime collage.... But sometimes we have a deckhand with littel or no training.... But it is diffrent in diffrent countrys.... This is the Swedish system.

[becky334]

Aye aye sailor iam living in sweden and have thought about working on a ship. just for the experince. diffrent from working on land.

[DECOFRANCE]

i hate going back to the ship. but i need to work.all the time the view is like this..its beautiful only in the beginning.

[SteffanLlwyd]

Beautiful. 'Would love to be on the bridge!

[cruisemate]

Furenäs is a nice ship. But she is rolling for nothing. Fure west and Fure Nord are better. Nice movie .

[XBouttier]

She is not called the Furenas anymore.. her name is now the M/T Whitstar

[cruisemate]

Well you are talking about the old Furenäs. This is the new one. Furetank are reuseing the names of the vessels. This one is built 1998 at söviknes ship yard in Norway. She is still serving with the Furetank fleet.

[bnewman16]

perfect!

[BC4150]

Small vessel !

[akonamanliwat]

do you have one much bigger than that??

[XBouttier]

I am selling one that is approximately 15 times bigger than this one...

[Siggemcquack]

Furenäs är en go båt men hon rullar lite väl lätt, inte så trevligt när vi gick till irland från pembroke

[chandimag]

its amazing to see the water coming right over the deck.. maybe the oil in the holds (or tanks ??) add positive buoyancy so that she wont sink ? amazing footage!

[travelguy78]

Oil in the tanks doesnt provide buoyancy , but rather keeping the gravity as close to the keel as possible, hence a high KG (Keel-Gravity). This water on deck adds weight with a high centre of gravity which again reduced the overall KG. The KM (Keel-Metacentre) is the rotation point so the point is to have a higher KM than KG , or else the ship can capsize very easily. GM(Gravity-Metacentre) is the term used for defining the stability of the ship when its rolling less than 5degrees.

[chrickekode]

Hallå ja! De e Furenäs va? tycker jag känner igen mig lite hehe. Ha d

[alics134]

jepp stämmer bra det!

[tepelidris]

laa ne biçim geminiz var:D:D

[chrickekode]

se där ja ! Själv ska jag börja på M/S Ortviken snart. Känner du till den? ha de gött hejdu

[VTSGoteborgTriton]

Ja har vart med på en bunkerbåt å vi bunkrade ortviken utranför helsingborg, de va dan morgonen efter finnbirch sjönk, va ett jäkla rullande på kvällen då asså men när vi va på ortviken dan efter så va det stiltje

[jontehoglund]

i have been working onboard that ship... you shuld seen a movie in that weather when she is non loaded...

[baxxxterloud]

This is awesome! This shows the mighty powers of the sea! How small man is out there in the blue desert. A tribute to all those brave sailors who have the guts to struggle against those big waves! The guy that took this nice shot, did a great job! Sorry, I did a mistake about the rating, it should be 5 STARS instead of one!

[sininetty]

Amen!!! Bro!
