Sailing Stories

Welcome to Sailing Stories.

I’m a Second Officer in the Merchant Navy, and this channel offers a first-hand look into life at sea — from daily routines and navigational watches to onboard challenges and the quiet beauty of the open ocean.

Whether you're an aspiring seafarer, a maritime enthusiast, or simply curious about what really happens aboard a cargo ship, Sailing Stories brings you real experiences from the bridge and beyond.

I upload at least one vlog every week while I’m on board. In the future, I also plan to include travel vlogs from my journeys around the world.

Subscribe for informative vlogs, life-at-sea insights, and tutorials that capture the reality of the merchant navy — unfiltered and professional.
