More ships - first video attempts

I’ve enjoyed all of the ship videos posted, so wanted to offer my own.
You were very lucky to get to see a semi-submersible heavylift ship in action.
It's on its way to Russia.s far east, just west of Japan now.

You’re absolutely right, the Odyssey is an old drilling platform that was converted to a launch platform.

I generally work on about 4-5 semi-submersible heavy lift operations each year. It was these projects that sparked my interest in picking up a drone.

At least the commander vessel made a cameo appearance in Captain America The Winter Soldier

Beautiful footage.
