How do you find a sinking ship? | How EPIRBs Work

When a ship sinks, the first priority of any rescuer is to actually locate the vessel in distress. It may seem easy, but in comparison to the size of an ocean, its not! That's where an EPIRB comes in. An EPIRB is an Emergency Position Indicating Radio Beacon, and it is one of the most important pieces of safety equipment that is carried. It transmits the location of the distress to satellites orbiting the earth, allowing rescuers to find you. In this video, we take a look at how EPIRBs work, and see what you can do to make sure they work properly. ----------------------WITH THANKS----------------------- ★ IMAGES Image of cargo vessel by Shaineast (Shutterstock) Image of sailing vessel by Alfazet Chronicles (Shutterstock) Image of world map by Ekler (Shutterstock) ★ Videos USCG videos in the public domain ★ Music & Sound Effects Music & Sounds Effects by Epidemic Sound (http://www.epidemicsound.com) -------------------------DISCLAIMER-------------------------- All content on this channel is provided for entertainment purposes only.

Left Handed Ships? - The Effect of Transverse Thrust on Ship Handling

Left Handed Ships? - The Effect of Transverse Thrust on Ship Handling

Strange as it sounds, ships can be described as either Right or Left Handed. It has nothing to do with which hand they naturally write with, but it actually tells us which way their propeller spins and the effect that it has on ship handling. You may have heard the terms propeller walk, or transverse thrust before. These both describe the effect itself. Right handed and left handed is just the terms we use to know what was a ship's propeller spins and consequently what she will do when you run astern.

Why is the command centre of a ship called a "BRIDGE"?

The bridge is the command centre of a ship. It is the location of all the controls as well as the navigational and communication equipment. Why did it become known as a bridge though? We all know about bridges that cross rivers. They bridge a gap. The etymology of the navigational bridge, however, is less clear. In this video, I explain where the term came from, as well as some of the features of a modern bridge. -------------------------DISCLAIMER-------------------------- All content on this channel is provided for entertainment purposes only.

Search & Rescue Transponders [SARTs] | Operation and Use of SARTs in emergency situations

SARTs, or Search and Rescue Transponders can be used to help rescuers pin point your location if you need to take to a liferaft. SARTs are active devices that transmit a signal which can be picked up by an x-band radar. The SART listens for radars, and only transmits once it has detected one. This video will show you how to operate a SART and how best to position one to ensure your detection. --------------------WITH THANKS TO--------------------- ★ KEVIN MACLEOD PERSPECTIVES, Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com) Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 3.0 License http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0/ -------------------------DISCLAIMER-------------------------- All content on this channel is provided for entertainment purposes only.

Controllable Pitch Propellers | How they are used to power ships

sB3rnfwNh30 | 26 Oct 2018

Controllable Pitch Propellers | How they are used to power ships

Controllable, or Variable Pitch Propellers are just one type of propulsion used on ships. Controllable pitch propellers vary the angle of each blade to control the amount on thrust produced by the propeller. They contrast fixed pitch propellers which vary their speed, keeping the angle of the blade fixed. This video explores the controllable pitch propeller and shows you how they vary their pitch to provide thrust to the vessel they are powering.

Hydrostatic Release Unit (HRU) | Rigging and Operation

Hydrostatic Release Units (HRUs) allow your liferafts to launch automatically should your vessel sink. They only work if they are fitted correctly. A correctly fitted hydrostatic release unit (HRU) will also allow you to quickly launch liferafts manually in an emergency using the senhouse slip. This video will show you the principles of fitting a hydrostatic release units (HRUs) correctly as well as their internal operation. Understanding how hyrdostatic releases work helps you to fit them correctly and, ultimately, to keep yourself safe on the water.

Why do big ships float? [Buoyancy and flotation explained]

Why do big ships float? [Buoyancy and flotation explained]

Do you look at enormous ships out at sea and wonder how it is possible that they can float? This video explains how big ships float, giving an introduction to both buoyancy and flotation. The basic concept is quite simple. Ships need to displace enough water to counter their own weight. If they weigh more than they displace, they will sink. If they displace the same as they weigh, they will float.
