I think the issue is NOT what E called it, he stated 'it served no purpose', which is inaccurate. The 4th funnel did serve a purpose, as ventilation.

KZread has opened my eyes as to how many unhappy people are out tin the world. "Haters gonna' hate" it's just what unhappy people do. Keep up the good work, I love watching your videos every week!

Years ago, I worked on a classic yacht called Talitha G, she had 2 funnels, one of which had been converted to a lift shaft, when she was fitted with new engines. Thank you for your great channel

When I ran Gucci's yacht she had a "dummy" funnel. All the exhausts were changed to hull fittings, but the funnel was kept purely for asthetics

Love the channel, love your work. And now you have the Correcting Corrections segment; brilliant! People are people, they have to tell you that you are wrong! It's a dummy funnel you dummies. A dummy, or faux, or FALSE funnel. OMG. He didn't say "that's not a funnel". Mr. Sysman, keep doing you!!

Shemara's new dummy funnell containing the satellite equipment is a superb idea. Just guessing it is GRP construction to allow the signals to pass through.

Someone definitely threw their dummy funnel out of the shipyard 🙂 I recall in the past accepting that it was considered unlucky to only have three funnels, but I also wisely checked before commenting, learning that was just another urban myth that I'd fallen for.

Interesting that you would put a fresh air vent stack behind a set of smoke stacks, not the best spot

it is a dummy funnel. Thank you from Manhattan ©2024

In 1969 we were moored at Manoel Island in Malta when Shemara visited for a brief stay. We were woken by her drunken noisy crew going back to her that night and in the morning found our scooter was in the harbour and Shemara had gone.

as always a flawless edition ..

English appears to be many commenters second language. 'Dummy' is not a rude word. It can mean 'a substitute designed to look like the real thing'. Hence, the dummy funnel on Titanic was used for aesthetic and grandeur purposes.

So the wording for the funnels calling them funnels is wrong. On a yacht the mast serves several reasons as well. There are pipes for several air ventilation types, being non smoking and still serving as a funnel for kitchen ventilation, bathroom ventilation, emergency generator exhaust being in use only once in a while.

You have a nice community that corrects you, you're really lucky😂😂

The Titanic funnel could no0t be used to bring air into the ship, the 3 funnels are before the fake one. It would obviously pull the smoke into the ship lower decks.

I was thinking the same it would pull in smoke. If it was used for ventilation it would be most likely be for exhaust air and supply air would have to come from the scoops.

I wouldn't call miss-handling the ship a freak accident.

I am following your channel, since war in Ukraine, and you make this channel absolutely best for yachts news on 🌎. Regarding dummy funnel, most of regular followers of your channel will know that you don’t need to explain (and usie time of video you publish) that people about dummy funnel. They never sail on cruise vessel, even as passengers. So just in future disregard such comments. 🤷‍♂️ Keep up a great work 🥂

Great video as usual and very entertaining explanations, even when you are correcting me as you did a number of videos ago. Keep up the good work.

Probably upgraded the yacht with an eight track tape player for music.

Hey, could you update us on Lürssen Eye (ex ace). She just have been refitted (and ruined imo) but maybe you have some more information on what happend below decks with the GA etc

I think i know what your next shipping news is about! Don't hit bridges?

Perfectly correct to call it a dummy funnel as that exactly what it was, well played for sticking to your guns.

Why would you put a forth ventilation stack BEHIND the exhaust stacks...? IE the ventilation argument doesn't make sense on face value.

Nice one mate thank you 😂😂😂😂😂❤

Great Video as always.

If Koru is going to be spending 10 weeks being refitted, it is probably getting more than just a pizza oven installed.

Shemara one stage spent quite a time in Jersey when Lord and Lady Docker resided there. The Dockers had quite a reputation of being somewhat over the top. Many stories to be told, often based in the yacht club - now I am showing my age.

This gentleman takes his history and facts serious. So before you refute his information, do your due diligence before hand.😉

Pop quiz - how many times is the word "Funnel" used in this video? 😂😂

Love that older yacht. I've worked on many older boats.. .I much prefer their looks.

The yacht Shemara appears to be flying the White Ensign which I thought was the prerogative of the British Royal Navy. Is this correct?

Some of the yachts seem to be flying a red ensign or version of thereof. I am wondering why.

For those wondering, you can sue the US Government (that would normally have sovereign immunity) under the US Federal Tort Claims Act when injured on government property due to unsafe conditions. Caballero will have to prove the unsafe conditions were created deliberately or through negligence and that will be a tall hurdle absent the findings of the investigation report.

a dummy funnel...? so its a dummy funnel ??

dummy funnel case closed … esysman 💪💪💪💪

Having the fourth funnel as an in vent is not very plausible to me because it would inhale the first three funnels’ smoke.

maybe Bezos wants to change out those eyesore radar domes for the smaller newer ones you mentioned in an earlier episode, not like he can't afford it lol.....

Have u ever seen the 81m Sy Sea Eagle?

I knew the Shem ara quite well .I WAS BORN IN SOUTHAMPTON IN .38 She sailed from there often. It belonged to Lord Dover he owned BSA motor cycles.

Well your right about the funnels.. it’s a bit funnelling to be come funnelled. Next time just say “ you can put that comment in your funnel “

😂, that’s a lot of “funnel”.

Why are they sueing the US government for injury when the ship fell over in dry dock in the UK. The US government didn't cause it to fall over, the dry dock operator did. Guess the lawyers think bigger payday sueing US government for a big payout. Hope their greed gets them nothing.

The most important thing is... your no Dummy...😆

Definition of a ships funnel... "A funnel is the smokestack or chimney on a ship used to expel boiler steam and smoke or engine exhaust. They are also commonly referred to as stacks." It has been well known for decades that the Titanic's 4th "funnel" was included in the design to give the illusion of grandeur. It was in no way necessary to the function of steam engine related exhaust ergo is in fact a "dummy funnel". Next up? How many angels can dance on the head of a pin? (a real pin)
