Welcome Aboard Mariners Alike - Malaysia Rule The Waves

its hard to describe how a man could left everything he had on land and went out to sea...
its even harder to describe how bright the stars at night and how fresh the cool morning air when you are in the middle of the ocean...
the hardest thing is to describe how close you are to death and how god could took your life at any time...
come to sea and see for yourself...

GOD SPEED AND FAIR WINDS


come to sea and see for yourself

this blog is dedicated to mariners,navigators and seafarers alike, merchant or naval for others to had a glimpse of what we do and what we faced in the vast blue oceans.

panorama di laut biru - close quarter situation....as close as possible....

entri CPA 0.0.....this is really2 close...




shit...this is waaay to close....!!!






many landlubbers asked how close can we get when passing another ship...

well...i followed master standing order...if he said passing distance 2nm....then 2 it is...but depending on the situation...by taking into consideration of sea room...traffic density..navigational hazard...depth of water...etc...etc...etc...this can get from 2nm to less...

but in the pic shown above....well that is toooo close....cross my finger...one of the crew can jump on the other ship forecastle...just to show how bloody close both ship were at that time...ouh..credit this pic to gcaptain...check more photos of this incident here...

by the way...no paint were scratched in this incident...furthermore..both ship were intact...no damage...no loss of life...no environmental impact...no oil spill...but this is way too close...and this is dangerous i kid you not...

dont do this mate...kapten konfirm melompat...kalau bercium...bukan kapten je...opis pun melompat....

-come to sea and see for your self-
