#006 - The Dry Dock, The Cook & $10 Million Lawsuit

We talk about the recent video from the Amels Booth at the Monaco Yacht Show where the marketing Manager kicked us out! But more about how social media fares in the Super yacht industry, and how the industry 'press' and I use that word loosely cover real world topics from within the eindustry.

A long overdue podcast. Sorry to anyone who waits for a new one to drop. We will try to bring them more regular from now on. How we get access to some of the most exclusive marinas plus, the cost of the road trips to Europe when we take a vehicle with us. You'll be shocked at the cost!

The Cook Vs UNITED STATES OF AMERICA, UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF THE NAVY, In this podcast we talk about the incident that happened in a dry dock facility in Scotland last year, where a ship owned by the US Navy fell over in that dry dock injuring 35 people onboard at the time. The video also ties in with our latest video just released on the eSysman Superyachts channel on YouTube about AIS. How Ships Violate International AIS Laws | Definitive AIS https://youtu.be/MxUfMKGyRrQ As there are some critical errors in the case by the plaintiff (the cook), after misreading the AIS data from Marine Traffic. Case Details Mr. Caballero is a seaman employed by Oceaneering International, Inc., a maritime contracting company based in Houston, Texas. He has worked for Oceaneering International for twenty-two years. He is an assistant cook. On March 22, 2023, the Vessel was secured in a drydock in Leith, Edinburg. But Defendant’s agents and/or servants failed to properly secure the Vessel in drydock. Around 8:35 a.m., strong winds dislodged the Vessel from its holding, causing the Vessel to topple over.

Is there such a thing as a Superyacht Blacklist? What's it like attempting to get employed on a superyacht? What happens when you get a job, what is the process? What happens once you join, where do you get your uniform from? Also how can a superyacht crew employed by a billionaire have to wait 4-6 months for their salary? Especially when he's spending millions on his yacht?
