Thanks Tamas. I'm pleased those bits get spotted.

Also the sound mixing, whenever shore or land is shown, there are bird sounds. and animated graphics with corresponding sound fx feels more grounded. The music fits well and has the right volume so it doesn't distract, which astounds me how often it's done wrong on youtube.

I think good content attracts entusiasts, but good direction and writing creates new entusiasts. It is my case, I know nothing about navigation and I doesn't even have plans to go on a cruise, but the way the information is presented is enjoyful and I learn as a result

Thanks Matheus.

That and the flag seamlessly transitioning from land to being on the back of the ship. So satisfying

With surprising and confusing exceptions all over the place. A country is not required to enforce it's laws under those circumstances and some won't even if the vessel parties voluntarily submit to the receiving port's authority. For a long time, the most prominent example of that was Spain, if it was not on a Spanish flagged ship and not in Spanish waters, Spanish courts would not hear it. You also get confusing exceptions from the fact that submitting to the receiving port's authority is almost always technically at the discretion of the ship's master. Thus some smaller cruise lines (and maybe big ones, I'm not sure) have it in the fine print that passengers will be held accountable to law enforcement at the next port of call, crew are only accountable to the flag country's law when in international waters. The Ship's master's discretion has also been used to prevent incident's embarrassing to the operator from becoming matters of public record. "Laws that apply on cruise ships" can be a really complicated topic.

@Todd m The only cruise ship with an American registry is _Pride of America,_ which is part of NCL. All of their other 16 ships are registered in the Bahamas. Either the captain doesn't know what he's talking about or there was more to the conversation that you (understandably) didn't share. If it were the case of a Florida resident committing a crime against another Florida resident, then the case would take place in Florida. Otherwise, it wouldn't. _Case in point:_ *"Case 4:* Victims were U.S. citizens. The alleged assaulter was a foreign crewmember employed by the cruise ship at the time of the assault. The incident took place in international waters on a foreign flagged vessel. Assaulter entered 5 different staterooms, sexually assaulting 5 women in the same night. Crewmember was caught by a victim’s cabin mate and was severely beaten by cruise ship security while trying to jump ship. At the next port, Bermuda police came on board to collect evidence and statements. Trial was held in Bermuda as it was the governing jurisdiction and law applied." _As well as:_ “Currently, U.S. federal law enforcement agencies, including the FBI, Navy, and Coast Guard, must obtain permission from a cruise ship's flag country before beginning a criminal investigation; U.S. agents cannot even board a cruise ship that may be the scene of a crime committed by or against an American citizen if the ship is located beyond U.S. waters” Both can be found here: www.cruiseresearch.org/Legal%20Issues%20Relevant%20to%20Cruise%20Ships.html

Well it does make sense, however it is probable a coincidence as with ICBM's and things it makes range a moot point in modern warfare when attacking a fixed land target.

If the coincidence requires 12 *plus* 12, then it's probably just a coincidence. The number 12 itself came before UNCLOS. I wonder how that came about. UNCLOS endorsed it because of a compromise between US and some others not wanting more and China and many others wanting more. 12+12 was more for practicality given the 12.

To be fair, if missiles fails old fashion cannons will never fail to amaze and destroy the opposition.

@@ev6558 So let's say i register a ship in switzerland. I'd need the swiss police to investigate any illegal goods manufactured/grown/refined on board right? How would that work, provided i'd never reenter any port while still carrying said goods?

@@munqsy2931 Well if your home authorities wanted to investigate you I'm sure they'd have any number of ways of compelling you under threat of penalty to submit to that investigation. I guess if nobody reported the crime and the authorities didn't notice it then you would get away with it, but of course that's how it works on land too lol. However I believe If your criminal activity is effecting another nation, like if you are processing drugs on the boat and then they are being smuggled into a country without you docking in port, that country could still claim jurisdiction to go after you.

@@munqsy2931 if you're referring to drugs expect to be scuttled by the first naval ship to come across you.

@@FoxDren not scuttled. He would get it boarded, seized and forfeited as well as charged under the laws of the naval vessel that caught him.

International law doesn't expressly solve that interesting matter. However, its nationality must be recognized anyway. For instance, Hong Kong isn't a sovereign State, but it has its own ships, whose nationality isn't disputed by sovereign States. None of the Law of the Sea conventions obliges ships to be registered in a country recognized by UN. They just need to be registered in a State which (in theory) exercises effective control over its ships.

Im in shipping and containers specifically. Most countries have their own shipping lines. The biggest is Maersk/Hamburg SUD (Dutch) MED (Italy) HapagLoyd/UASC hapag bought United Arab. (Germany) CMA/CMG/APL (france) China Shipping and OOCL are COSCO (china) Yang Ming and Evergreen (Taiwan ) ONE is Kline NYK and MOL (japan) Hyundai and SK are Korean. Then there are a hole mess of Leasing companies for all the other boxes. 2 in Hong Kong and at least 3 in the US and one per country so pay attention to those double stack trains as they bring stuff to and fro.

@@argenisjrg Same would count for the EU if they would decide to build up a navy. They are legaly not a country (but a union of countries).

Well technically if they are not recognized as a country they haven't signt treaties on ABC weapon ban and their usage or war crimes either. That gives them some powerful options to defend their ships if necessary and use weapons others may not use. They pretty much are outlaws and can than retaliate like an outlaw by intercepting their boats.

@@CasualNavigation you should also do the difference and distinction between a countries flag and maritime flag .... such as in a court of law one sees a flag of a country with gold bunting or tassles ... that is a maritime flag and it uses martial law and maritime law as its rules ...

Cabotage is generally not permitted by countries, with the European Union being a notable exception, with all member states granting Cabotage rights to each other.

@@AlexandarHullRichter Cabotage is the transporting of people or goods between two points within a country, often used in relation to the law or policy preventing foreign vessels from competing with local vessels in a country’s own waters

Wouldn't work. To be a viable nation, you'd have to be recognized by the U.N. They do not recognize artificial "islands" as nations. I'm certain there are plenty of viable countries to choose from. Even Mongolia, which is a land-locked country, has ships registered to it. It also will depend on what type of vessel you're registering, if it's a cargo vessel, cruise ship, or luxury yacht.

the flag the ship is registered under makes if sovereign territory of THAT country ... and as such subject to ALL of it's rules .... they dont get to pick and choose what rules they are going to follow they must follow all the rules as set out by the flag of the country they are registered with ...

If the ship is just sailing through their territorial sea, no. However, there is a thing called "Port State Control". If a "Zulu" flagged ship is docked in a port of "Yankee" State, the authorities of the latter can survey the ship; and if they find out that the labour conditions are precarious, they are entitled prevent the ship from sailing until the workers have better conditions on board. Most countries do that based on the Maritime Labour Convention. Sailing is often prevented because of other reasons too, for instance, the ship is not properly manned or maintained, its certificates have expired, etc. Those circumstances (including bad labour conditions) make a ship unseaworthy.
