Something that I have been wondering having not been on any cargo ships is what the crews are really like? I have this idea that some are very "hard" "sea dod" types but maybe this isn't really the case these days. Are they intimidating or generally easy to get on with?
I know quite a few commercial pilots and they seem to be very normal and friendly but professional at the same time. Also they seem to take a lot of pride in their job/work.
Also what is the general atmosphere on board usually like? (I'm talking more boxboats here that cruise). Is it professional but fun or are people gloomy, bored all the time? Is it usually a "big family" type atmosphere or do people tend to do their own things?
It's really quite hard to find any of this whats it really like stuff out other than on places like this forum.
