In this one I bring you guys along as I work day to day on the ship a we hit our ports in the Mid-East. It was so so hot and you will see some of what I saw on the journey so I hope you enjoy this episode.

The contrast of the deep blue of the ocean and the rugged mountains is spectacular. It looked like you were really hot there a few times. I'm sure staying hydrated is very important. Thanks for the tour of the ship, amazing.

That was a really interesting video; especially the empty deck part. At first I thought... why is he in an underground parkade? Wow... that was in the lower deck of the ship. Great video!

I felt your pain with that heat they've got there. I've been to the middle east and the weather they have is just soul destroying. Also you know how hot it is when you're looking forward to cooling down in 'india' 😅

Appreciate the vlogs man. Very interesting seeing the daily life/work of a career I'll probably never get the chance to experience. I've spent a fair amount of time in the Middle East for work and it's absolutely nuts how hot it gets out there in the summer. I'm sure its even worse on a big metal ship with the sun beating down on you. Also pretty interesting seeing you on a RORO. First time I think I've seen one in a vlog, most of the other guys on YT are on containers or bulk carriers. In your experience which do you prefer? Definitely some neat cargo on there, can definitely spot at least an M88 which tracks for the area you're in.

Are you on a RORO ship? The ramp seems to indicate that you are on a RORO. The cargo in the hold when you were filming at one point looks like military vehicles.

Jeff: Why are there vehicles in the cargo hold of the ship? These don't appear to be cargo but cars for use.
@JeffOnboard

I'm not sure the exact part of the video you are talking about. But there was a couple personal vehicles that were being delivered as well that I saw. I assume people were just sending their car from where they were using it to somewhere else possibly. I'm not sure the exact spot but I don't know if this answers to a question or not. If not please tell me the minutes and seconds in the video and I will try to look and explain better.

Yes I think that was probably just a vehicle being shipped somewhere possibly there were. A few other? Vehicles that were just being shipped to different cities. I saw a couple landrover defenders also they were older models but I guess someone was just shipping them back to USA.
