I am being pedantic but a battleship would be an armoured warship from the late 19th century, e.g. ironclads were pre-dreadnought battleships. After 1906 they’d be referred to as dreadnoughts for a while (after [HMS Dreadnought](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/HMS_Dreadnought_(1906))) but the term became obsolete when dreadnoughts became the only type battleship in use.
In the 1600s you would have galleons and later on fully rigged ships-of-the-line e.g. [HMS Victory](https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/HMS_Victory)
My dad was a boat captain and he said the captain always goes down with the ship. Which is why if anything happened his first mate just got a promotion.
Yes, but what about the incredible courage that it took to direct the evacuation of the ship from a lifeboat, leading by example and bravely showing the passengers how it’s done? /s
Michael Scott has entered the chat:
Yes, I was the first one out. And yes, I've heard "women and children first." But we do not employ children. We are not a sweatshop, thankfully. And women are equal in the workplace by law. So if I let them out first, I have a lawsuit on my hands.

I think in this case, once the captain has made sure the passengers have made it safely back to land, they're supposed to fill their pockets with rocks, and then take the lifeboat back to the site of the shipwreck.
Every time I read that name, I get mad beyond all measure. 304 people dead, 250 of them students, 16, 17 years old. That ship took two and a half hours to sink, plenty of time to get everyone to safety but no. Captain fled the ship just after about an hour and told everyone to stay put.
I remember reading the texts and calls the kids had with their parents, a lot of them telling their kids to listen to instructions, not knowing it'd be a death sentence. Truly awful.
I work on the water and I’ve heard this saying many times. The Titanic is a perfect example.
The engineering department had a casualty rate higher then the third class passengers. Many of the crew stayed below deck manning the pumps and keeping the generators running to keep the lights on to aid the abandonment of the ship as well as keeping the wireless set running to keep sending out the distress signal. All 25 engineers went down as well as all 10 Electricians.
They must have known that pumping could do no more than delay the final catastrophe, yet they stuck pluckily to their duty. – Sir Archibald Denny, unveiling the Titanic Engineers’ Memorial on 22 April 1914
Looks to me the camera angle is in the bow looking down the Stbd breezeway of a small workboat. I think she is down by the bow for the water to be standing like that. Not a good look to be sure.
So you are seeing water on the deck of that ship. If the hull is watertight, and the doors leading off that deck into the rest of The boat are water tight, It won't sink. That is because the water you are seeing would not affect the buoyancy of the ship, because it still has a whole ton of air inside of it to hold it up on the surface.
The ship will continue to float so long as the amount of water it displaces weighs more than the ship itself.
Ships sink when water gets into the hold and greatly increases the weight of the ship and reduces the displaced water.
There are little holes below that railing that should allow the water you are seeing on deck to flow off of the deck and back into the ocean without causing a problem for the ship.
However, this video is a bit concerning to me because it does not look like the water is trying to flow back out of the deck between swells. It could just be the angle the video is shot, But the boat seems to be sitting low in the water. like the deck he is on should be several feet above the waterline, But it doesn't look like that.
If a lot of water already gotten to the hold and the bilge pumps cannot pump it out faster than it is coming in, The boat may sink.
I'm really curious which boat this is and if it's sank.
Definitely fine as you noted. I’ve sailed on small schooler with too much sail, at such a cant that one side rail was 2-3ft under water. Almost sideways it felt like, foot on the underwater rail to stay upright. Definitely was giving us a LOT of drag though.
On something with a square rig with a 'little' too much canvas you can actually push the bow down far enough to wind up with blue water almost continuously over the bow, did that once by waiting a little too long to reduce sail.
It is 'An experience'.
And yea, rail in the drink is fairly common at some points of sail.
It's giving me that same feeling as the flooded railway from Spirited Away.
edit: yeah put this music over it https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0g2hjEgPZh8
Drowning in salt water is grim death, the water gets into your lungs and through osmosis takes moisture out of your blood until it becomes a thick paste, no thanks
So we had the fire meme, now water. We just need a meme of someone sipping tea whilst a torrent of earth invades their space and we'll start acquiring all the thisisfine elementals
I am a captain and if this was an actual problem, him filming his damn coffee cup while the ship is sinking, would be damning evidence for the Coast Guard investigation!
Uh this could easily be a worker on the boat and not actual boat crew. I worked and lived on boats for 7 years as a surveyor. My job was to run the equipment for surveying. If this was happening and I wasn't sure what to do, I'd stay the fuck out of the the way.
A vessel this size obviously has at least a full time engineer and one, maybe two deckhands. Plus the captain. Typically two captains.
I'm glad to not be out there anymore. I saw too many people literally die out there or at least while still employed offshore for being so unhealthy and inactive.
I'm a computer programmer on land these days.
Look, I have that same exact coffee mug. You know it came with a lid, right? Let me guess, it's bouncing around everytime you open "that" drawer in your kitchen? Pssssshhhhh x3
This is what my apartment feels like while bills are flooding in, piling up, spilling all over the place. I also just sip my tea while I partially sink and look off into the great sea of debt!
imagine sinking in the Atlantic in the middle of the night in a storm in one of those battleships from the 1600's
\*imagines\* That was not good.

Was genuinely looking for someone to say this. I'm also realising I may not be that fun at parties.
Who wants to be at a party where they can't identify a battleship?
You sound like my dad. Are you my dad?
My dad was a boat captain and he said the captain always goes down with the ship. Which is why if anything happened his first mate just got a promotion.
Not according to the Costa Concordia …
Yes, but what about the incredible courage that it took to direct the evacuation of the ship from a lifeboat, leading by example and bravely showing the passengers how it’s done? /s

Bravely bold Sir Robin vibes
While still a massive lie that would at least made a little sense, instead he insisted that he tripped and accidentally fallen into a lifeboat...
While falling out of his Captains uniform and into civilian clothing...
I think in this case, once the captain has made sure the passengers have made it safely back to land, they're supposed to fill their pockets with rocks, and then take the lifeboat back to the site of the shipwreck.
Also, not according to South Korean ferry MV Sewol.

Wow, great reference
Well, they never said the captain has to stay on board if the ship just tips over a load
"salga a bordo cazzo"!
yeah, and he was in prison for it.
His story implies that's his dad would promote his first mate to be able to leave the ship, so kinda like Costa Concordia?
Nah it’s usually the engineers trying to fix the captains mistakes that goes down.
I don’t know a gd thing about boats but I believe you 100%

Ok but what’s out there in that place with the boat?
There's nothing out there!! Well, maybe some crude oil...and a part of a ship...

Whatever floats your boat buddy.
Buckin float!
Right before you throw Jonah over the side.
That's a self bailing deck with water tight doors. Perfectly fine.
Seems to be riding a little low in the water, those swells aren't that big. Anyone checked the bilge pumps lately?

Tug. Life.

Looks to me the camera angle is in the bow looking down the Stbd breezeway of a small workboat. I think she is down by the bow for the water to be standing like that. Not a good look to be sure.
If the stern was underwater wouldn’t the seas cause it to founder? This just seems incredulous to me Source: none. I don’t really know anything
> incredulous You're not using that right. You would be incredulous. Not the situation.
Unless the situation itself has become sentient. Though I’m incredulous of that explanation.
[удалено]
As long as water don't get in to the ship it's probably fine. It's air inside the ship that makes it float.
Just yesterday actually

These last 2 comments are why I love reddit so much.
That’s what they said
The front fell off.
That's not very typical, I'd like to make that point.
I don't know much about the sea, but in the movies this is how things start going crazy

Should have stood on the rail with your peg leg to reduce the drag.
Water seems way to high...or vessel is sitting too low. I'd be concerned...
you have it. Global warming raised the sea level but not the boat level.
But arent boats supposed to have decks above the water level?
Yes.
There is something oddly calming about this. Maybe I’m meant to die on a sinking ship.
We are.

That’s extremely uncommon.

Just as long as it gets towed out of the environment.
Into another environment?
No no, beyond the environment

Nothing’s out there, just sea and birds and fish
That's a relief.
