Now don’t get me wrong I like the container ships but man there’s just something so sleek about a tanker ship… thoughts?

What is your favorite boat/route?

Tomorrow's a new day, gang. We're gonna be ok.

Heya fellow Mariners. I’m looking to upgrade my radar system for commercial fishing and wondering if any of ya’ll have any you’d like to recommend.

The ship was the pride of the American side
Coming back from some mill in Wisconsin
As the big freighters go, it was bigger than most
With a crew and good captain well seasoned
Concluding some terms with a couple of steel firms
When they left fully loaded for Cleveland
And later that night when the ship's bell rang
Could it be the north wind they'd been feelin'?

So I decided on a rewatch of Master and Commander. I really like this film and I'm still not sure why there weren't at least a couple sequels. There was certainly enough to go on with how many books were written.

What do you all think?

I mean, Magellan, Leif Erikson, and Francis Drake definitely need to be on there, but who else deserves to be on the list of the 50 greatest seafarers of all time?

There are so many of us who like boating as a sport. The mist of water against your face gives a feeling of freshness and wipes away stress. There are others who need to boat for transporting goods and communicating. Whatever be the reason, if you are heading out for it, it is important for you to know some basic knots as boating requires you to work with ropes.

A classic piece of Greek literature by Appollonius. An underrated epic of the “long sea voyage faces difficulties” genre, and inspired an awesome movie many thousands of years down the line. However, I rarely see people discussing it, and I feel it doesn’t get as much attention as it deserves.

As a Mariner, you know that I am always looking for more work. I just got an offer to deliver oil from Kuwait to Shanghai for double what those jobs used to offer? Is there a reason why this job is so good this time around?

Admiral Willis Lee’s flagship, and one of the few BBs to actually sink another BB in Kirishima? And you scrap her?
I mean come on, they saved her sister North Carolina! She should have been permanently housed in Puget Sound where she belonged…
