My ship caught fire in the engine room, major damage that runs into the millions, and a 9 month set back to our program.

 

Next to that moving back in with the olds or some old skool breakdown is minor.

:sad::sad::sad::sad::sad::sad::sad::sad::sad::sad::sad:

 

Still, glad to see someone is still knickerless :D

jesus, i think you win!

 

what do you do then?

 

wha ship was it?

 

I'm a Marine Engineer, I work as Chief Engineer for a shipyard that builds superyachts, my role is to work with the design and production staff who have little or no sea going experience, assist them in producing the final product, then take them to sea and put them through their paces. This particular project has been ongoing for some 6 years, and has cost in excess of £100 million. We were at sea working her up to power (she has some 40'000 horse power, fancy that under the bonnet of an OSF?) then it all went Pete Tong.

 

No it isn't mine, but after that length of time and so much blood sweat and tears gone into to it you get kind of attached.

 

Still there were no casualties (I was the only one that came close) thank god.

You're lucky to have an option to move back to your parents.Some people don't have that. I'd be happy to move back home. I'd have my brekky, dinner and tea all ready for me. Washing would be done. Come and go as I please. No arguments..............Sheer bliss. I had my Mum look after me all last week, while I was off work sick.

 

The only bad day's I've had is Dad and a 17 month old Niece dying.

 

Everything else can be replaced with insurance

Pip your not quite getting the point as of why i've had to move back in! So yes really, it is a bad day!

 

And your well lucky, my mum hasn't done any of that washing stuff for me n my bro or cooking for me for a few years now!

It is indeed a cool job and I enjoy it very much, but as with testing any untried machine it has its risks.

 

It's a privately owned 50 metre motor yacht that is extremely fast very powerful and very expensive. A comparison we sometimes make is that she is to sea going ships, what Concorde was (and still should be in my mind) to aviation. I'd love to be able to post a pic, but being bound by a confidentiality agreement what I've said already is probably too much.
