NEW 349m CONTAINER SHIP ANE MAERSK LEAVES THE PORT OF HAMBURG GERMANY - 4K SHIPSPOTTING MARCH 2024

As a former mariner, the Bow accomodition is not comfortable it's going to be a DISCO party for all the crew during rough weather . 😂

got to say with that vertical bow and the bridge that far in the front she really looks similar to the lakers in US..

The reason for the superstructure up front was that this was necessary to compensate for the loss of cargo space due to the larger tanks required. Methanol only got half the energi compared to fossil oil so the tanks had to be double size..

Everything up front is not comfortable for the crew in rough seas

There is an article on The New York Times today about the dozens of important bridges in the US alone, where large ships pass under, without any kind of protection for its pillars, like the Key bridge in Baltimore. With this superstructure right over the bow, the crew better pray nothing like the Dali/Key event happens to them. Regardless, ship design should not be based on unsafe bridge structures, and this boat design is awesome. I traveled for 29 days in a bulk carrier, where the superstructure was on the very back, above the engine, and it was very uncomfortable, with the constant vibration, and the view from the bridge was a bunch of containers almost eyelevel.

That’s a great shot of ANE MAERSK as she coming towards you. Awesome video!

Yeehaw a house forward ship. I wonder how well the crew will become intimately acquainted with Ralph and Huey when the weather is snotty. Makes also wonder how much replacement glass they will keep on the ship for all the windows that will get blown out by water from wave hitting them in rough seas.

Always love those little plane slide-ins on the marine vids. Nice work!

I bet the crew really enjoys the ride in rough weather with the superstructure so far forward.

Rusty VENTA MAERSK looks impressive too🤩🤩!!

Fantastic this video, and thanks for the ship specifications in the video, you see here the ocean Giants and the smaller vessels.

Tug supervision - helps avoid colliding with bridges etc. when one has engine failure.

At least some of the crew get a cabin window not looking out at containers

This ship is almost the length 4 US foot ball fields. Wow!! That is really a big ship!!!

Another Excellent Video !!!

The living area and bridge are placed at the front. Although they are far away from the noise of the engine, it is more likely to cause seasickness to the crew when encountering big waves.😅

Looks very organized

That's an very interesting design they chose to go with.

Looks pretty good.

The bridge and accommodations at the very bow? That’s going to be a real rodeo for the crew in any weather at all. But, hey if Maersk can squeeze out a few more dollars, let them complain. Put some motion sickness meds in the soft ice cream machine.
