After having a pretty crappy summer, decided to take a little working vacation. One of the best trips I've ever taken!

What a fantastic storyteller you are. You could be working in a pitch black coal mine and still make fascinating content. Good luck on your next adventure!

Back in 2006 I worked for an airport maintenance company out of NY. My employer won a contract to provide maintenance at Hawaiian airports. By chance I was selected to go to Kauai. I was in my early twenties, single, and all I heard was that Kauai was for the "newlyweds, or nearly dead's"!!! Kauai turned out to be one of the most incredible experiences of my life. Kauai brought me a moment of calm I never knew possible growing up in Queens, NYC!!!!
All the best to you my friend!!! Safe travels!

I lived in Hawaii for 3 years in the late 1960's (I'm an old dude) and when we left, our Hawaiian friends and neighbors gave us an Hawaiian farewell at the airport. Your shipmate's farewell brought tears to my eyes and I don't cry for much. Like many others of your viewers, I am in awe of your story telling and editing skills.

The transition from above deck to below might have been the greatest shot yet.

I believe that this excellent video from Joe has done more for the cruise line industry than any Love Boat episode ever did. Joe not only is a great storyteller but was able to show how the crew members are really great people!

I was on Pride of America last week. It was a lovely experience and I am aware that the crew works so hard to make the passengers/guests have an amazing experience. We appreciate you! My family visited Lahaina and spoke with locals, and blessed them directly. My wish is that the island land is returned to locals, and that the state helps locals rebuild. 🙏

This is something I wanted SO much to do with my life! When I was maybe 14 or 15, I bought a book about jobs on cruise ships. I studied that book so much that the pages were well worn. But, unfortunately, life had other plans for me. So, here I am, almost 70 years young, and I've yet to step foot on a ship. sigh Thank you for sharing your wonderful journey. It made my day/life. ❤ Mahalo

I appreciate how you always make the video about the people you're with as much as the job you do. Thank you.

It also has no casino which means it does not stink of tobacco smoke. Smoking is only permitted on the starboard quarter, It also has blue exterior lighting because of migratory birds. Very unique. Highly recommended.

Hi Joe. I thoroughly enjoyed this video, which I stumbled onto tonight.
I spent 3 years in Hawaii in the late 60s when my father was stationed there with the Navy. I absolutely fell in love with the Islands and her People.
And so I returned in 94 to work on the SS Constitution and a month later, the SS Independence until March 2000. I worked as a cocktail waitress, then an Assistant Jr Purser, and for the last 3 years, in the Gift Shops. It was a dream come true.
Watching your story brought back so many wonderful memories. I was fortunate to have enjoyed many shore excursions.... helicopter rides horseback riding, snorkeling, kayaking, bicycling down Haleakala, and riding in a bi-plane. Our itinerary was quite different than yours. We were able to sail past the lava flowing into the ocean on Thursday night as we sailed from Hilo to Kona. Absolutely breathtaking.
I'm so glad you enjoyed your time with your Pride of America Ohana and that you shared those experiences with your viewers.
Safe travels to you!

Your story telling skills continue to get better with every video,my brother. You have a way of putting us all on board with you. Thank you from a person who will never get to have these experiences for sharing this with us. Safe travels.

Wow Joe you have turned into one of the greatest occupational video producers on YouTube. Very well done. Never really had an interest in the mariner life, but your vids have me fully engaged bro! Keep up the great work! Always looking forward to your next adventure....

I don't think I could go back to doing cargo ships after this. Great video as always, but this one, I think, is my favorite so far.

Sir you nailed it. I worked on the Pride of America for two contracts 2011-2012. Your video describes my memories perfectly. From “Kona Day”. The color of the water to living two lives. A work life and a social life. Everything you filmed was still the same. The bunk curtain. The hallways. The uniforms from hotel to bar. Coming into port. All of them. Drill day. I was a vice captain on a tender boat. Some parts were hard. But so many amazing memories I will never forget. Thank you for this.
And Yes the bbq on the back!

This was an absolutely GREAT video tour of a beautiful cruise ship and parts of Hawaii. Once it began to play I had to listen to it until the very end. Joe you are very lucky to have experienced this cruise from a workers perspective. Your video expressed how the terrific crew shared love and friendship with each other. It was like a big family that embraced one for all and all for one. There were some very touching moments.

I'm working as a deckhand for a smaller line of cruise ship and so far it has been just like that lots of friends and new adventures all the way from Alaska to the Puget sound but now reaching the end of my contract 6 months in of 12h days and no days off I'm really starting to feel burned out. But watching this really gave me the motivation I needed to finish this contract and finally head home. Awesome job! And Fair weather to you!

The Pride of America has a very interesting history, and being the only U.S. flagged cruise ship, it has a unique set of challenges. You gave your viewers a great look behind the scenes, with a great speaking voice, and a great presentation. Simply an excellent video! There's nothing like being out in the beautiful Hawaiian islands. They are truly touched by the gods.

This video actually choked me up a little. I worked this exact same itinerary onboard the beautiful SS Constitution and the SS Independence ‘84-‘92. I was on the entertainment staff and sailed 4 months on/two months off, but seeing the ports, the “crew only” deck (if they only knew…hehe), Kalapaki beach on Kauai, the excitement, the sadness, and the emotions of “Aloha week” and the breathtaking vistas upon sail away as the Hawaiian musicians performed Honolulu City Lights on deck, etc., brought the memories flooding back. Well done sir,
and my hat’s off to you. Aloha malama pono! 🍻

Discussing your lifeboat duties along with the song, 'Nearer My God, To Thee'. Dude. That is Titanic detailed and creative. Well done.

I love all of your videos but this one hits different for me. I was a resident of Kauai and watched this ship come and go in and out of Nawiliwili so many times but have never stepped foot on it. You are a hell of a story teller and filmmaker. Thanks for sharing!
