Agreed, thats nothing compared to what I've seen and been in. I'm not a tub operator but I've run commercial fishing boats many times in far worse weather

Exactly. Thank you. I dont even bother responding to those keyboard warriors who can't even enjoy a simple video. It was a great trip and i enjoyed it a lot, especially with these waves.

@@MaximusAemilius010 And the stern deck is around 1 meter above the water so when seas wash through the freeing ports that's a rocking and rolling day, not to mention when one or another breaks over the rail as seen in your thumbnail. Is there a tour video of this very fine vessel? I was a deckhand for half a dozen years towing fuel oil out of NYC and one of the best mess cooks in the fleet... so when I say tugboats are in my blood I really mean it

@@MaximusAemilius010 Maurice, I can sympathise with you, I first discovered the rough sea verses the camera phenomenon back in the mid 70s when fishing in the Great Australia Bight, any pictures I took looked like a walk in the park when actually there was 6 ft of green water standing over the bowrail. I think the answer is to have a gimballed mount for the camera so the camera remains vertical as the ship rolls , either that or get shots of an accompanying vessel who is enjoying similar conditions. Maybe that would convince the aforementioned keyboard warriors. A great video, makes me long to be back at sea.

Elbe is 58 meters long

Even a very nice day for the Northsea!

That ain't the bering sea! They wouldn't survive in the bering sea with tug boat like this

I was wondering where the deck chairs were ? Then I saw them at 2:07. Those things belong outside !

Thank you for the compliment. The large old white cargo vessel is the 'Cap San Diego'. She is from 1962 and is now a museumship with Hamburg as here homeport.

Moin from Hamburg, it is the "Cap San Diego". A museum ship located in Hamburg.

Not all glasses survived. So yes, we dit had to use some spare ones ;-)

+Maurice Verschuur : Many years ago I was in Sydney and used to enjoy rough Harbour crossings on the Manly Ferry. My ideal experience was to pick a rough day, take the ferry to Manly, then hide in the gents toilet for 10 minutes until all passengers had transferred off and on, then go on deck and travel back and forth between the two destinations until I'd had enough for the day. Very amusing for a young lad 😅

@@BrassLock No young lad could ever have enough of being swept across the rolling seas

die staan nu ook wast

There's an idiot response lol

Thank you for your grrreat contribution. Yes there are rougher seas, but this wasn't a smooth sailing either.

+Maurice Verschuur Looks like a typical (aka shitty) winter day offshore. That's a pretty big tug. I worked on 96', and seen many winter days like this. I wish video did the waves justice. The video never captures the full force of it, or the duration. 2 minute clip vs the real days upon days of living in it. My first trip out, I remember hitting land finally. felt like the whole world was moving. Be safe, brother.
