L'Union européenne, première puissance commerciale du monde, échange la presque totalité de ses produits par voie maritime. Notre industrie maritime est prospère. elle gère la plus grande flotte navale au monde. Paradoxalement, cette industrie souffre d'un manque de marins européens qualifiés. En 2002, il manquait environ 30.000 officiers de marine, soit un déficit de 30 % par rapport à la demande, pour les quelques 10.000 navires des pays de l'Union européenne. Les débouchés ne manquent donc pas et pour qui aime la mer, la carrière d'officier de marine offre des perspectives de vie et de travail enrichissantes et passionantes. Le film "Waves of Passion" illustre les différentes facettes de la carrière d'officier de la marine marchande et les possibilités de reconversion ultérieure à terre.

If you don't love the sea, don't stay home, do something else.
00:01:17
I am paid to do the thing I like the most in the world.
00:01:20
It's a great job.
00:01:24
For me it's the best job in the world.
00:01:25
I like to say that I am the woman of a sailor.
00:01:27

00:01:30
A friend of mine told me about one of his internships aboard a container ship during his studies.
00:01:49
He told me about this internship and it totally fascinated me.
00:01:56
I loved it. I worked, I travelled, I climbed stairs, I crossed canals.
00:02:00
I didn't have my baccalaureate.
00:02:06
That's exactly what I needed to enter the school of Merlin Marchand.
00:02:07
Background music playing.
00:02:11
It's a job that brings a lot of money.
00:02:17
That's a good point.
00:02:21
It allows you to travel, discover countries, cross storms.
00:02:24
Things like that that are out of the ordinary.
00:02:32
Background music playing.
00:02:37
I think that when I'll be at the bridge, at the helm of one of the biggest boats in the world,
00:02:41
when I'll give the order to leave the moorings,
00:02:50
I think I'll have achieved my goal and realized one of my biggest dreams,
00:02:53
to become captain of the Merlin Marchand.
00:02:58
Background music playing.
00:03:00
Let's go.
00:03:05
Of course, we remember the first time we gave the order to leave.
00:03:06
You received, in front, behind, you drop everything.
00:03:11
It's a moment when we find ourselves alone.
00:03:14
So we say to ourselves, well, we have to take the step and then we have to assume.
00:03:18
We don't really take responsibility.
00:03:24
When I was a kid, I spent a lot of years on the water,
00:03:28
and I saw boats passing by, I saw wet boats.
00:03:31
And with the tide, it changed from cape to mooring,
00:03:34
and it always intrigued me, I wanted to know what was going on.
00:03:39
And the opportunity presented itself to do studies, and I have been committed for 30 years.
00:03:42
Well, finish behind, in front of the Bosco Seudemont.
00:03:50

00:03:56
Labaretta zero.
00:03:59
A very slow wind.
00:04:01
I started by sailing on the African coast, where there were a lot of cliffs.
00:04:03
And then I did the northern ferries, where there were a lot of manoeuvres,
00:04:07
and the commanders were very interested in the manoeuvre,
00:04:11
when I was second captain, and it gave me the taste of the manoeuvre,
00:04:14
and that's why I naturally came to pilot,
00:04:17
because of this stress.
00:04:20
To the right 20.
00:04:22
To the right 20.
00:04:23
Labaretta 20 to the right.
00:04:26
When the ships make destinations on Panama, Brazil,
00:04:28
all these beautiful destinations that make you dream again,
00:04:31
yes, there we always have this little regret,
00:04:35
we would like to stay on board for another ten days to follow the commander.
00:04:38
What is fascinating is that when you get into this profession,
00:04:42
it's about discovering the environment,
00:04:46
also discovering the marine environment, the sea,
00:04:49
and then you don't get bored.
00:04:53
Even on boats as big as this one,
00:04:56
you don't get bored.
00:05:00
You don't get bored.
00:05:02
You don't get bored.
00:05:04
You don't get bored.
00:05:06
Even on boats as big as this one,
00:05:08
boats that move very, very fast,
00:05:12
you also take the time to look at the sea,
00:05:15
because the sea is changing.
00:05:18
You go to the same place, it's never the same colour,
00:05:20
it's never the same environment.
00:05:23
That's what's fascinating about the sea.
00:05:25
The commander is the chief of the expedition.
00:05:28
We also call him the old man or the pasha.
00:05:32
He is responsible for everything,
00:05:35
and he is seconded by a second captain and a chief mechanic.
00:05:38
The big responsibility of the second captain
00:05:42
is the loading,
00:05:46
which is going to be very, very difficult.
00:05:48
It's going to be very, very difficult.
00:05:52
He is responsible for the loading
00:05:55
and for the stability of the boat.
00:05:58
On board the boat, I'm the chief mechanic.
00:06:01
I'm responsible for everything that is driving,
00:06:04
maintenance, painting, mechanics,
00:06:07
everything that is driving and maintenance of the ship.
00:06:09
There is a lieutenant essentially dedicated to navigation.
00:06:12
He traces the routes,
00:06:15
he takes care of the correction of the maps and documents.
00:06:17
It's a position that is quite important.
00:06:20
You have to be ready to be able to get down to the machine
00:06:26
at any time of day and night if necessary.
00:06:29
You have to be available.
00:06:31
You can't say, well, I've done my eight hours, that's it.
00:06:33
That's not the purpose of the job.
00:06:36
What I particularly like about this way of working
00:06:38
is that when you're on board, it's 100% work.
00:06:41
And in the same way, when you're on holiday, it's 100% holiday.
00:06:45
We sail one month for one month off.
00:06:49
Currently, on these boats,
00:06:52
we're on board for two months and at home for two months.
00:06:54
So this is my office, with the small office part.
00:07:01
A little corner in the living room to receive the colleagues.
00:07:06
As you can see, it's not something that lacks comfort.
00:07:10
We're well set up.
00:07:13
And next to the cabin, as you can see,
00:07:15
we don't sleep in hammocks.
00:07:18
PIANO PLAYS
00:07:22
I serve 10 years on cargo ships.
00:07:53
I went all around the world.
00:07:55
I met a lot of people.
00:07:57
It was exciting.
00:07:59
Then I decided that I had to move to the passenger ships
00:08:01
to meet more people, because you are coming close to the people
00:08:04
which are going to sail with you.
00:08:08
You can see more exciting things with the cruise ships,
00:08:10
because you are coming close to the people
00:08:14
which are going to sail with you.
00:08:17
You can see more exciting things with the cruise ships,
00:08:19
because you visit the most beautiful and exciting places around the world.
00:08:23
It's a very nice restaurant here.
00:08:28
We offer very good service and very good food.
00:08:30
Compared to five-star hotels.
00:08:33
Trust me, I try to behave, but it's not so easy.
00:08:36
You cannot sail directly with the passenger ships.
00:08:41
You need the experience which you get.
00:08:44
You learn travelling around the world,
00:08:46
and then, when you move, you can move to the passenger ships,
00:08:48
which is, let's say, the most important,
00:08:51
because you carry on passengers,
00:08:53
and it's very important to have good experience to sail with.
00:08:55
There is no cost for human life.
00:08:59
When you work, you work to express yourself.
00:09:04
Not to do the work because you have to, but because you like to do.
00:09:09
So that's the big deal.
00:09:13
If you don't like what you do, better don't do it.
00:09:15
Do something else, especially for this professional matter.
00:09:17
For me, it's not a job.
00:09:21
It's a passion.
00:09:23
I'm paid to do the thing I like the most in the world.
00:09:25
Actually, sometimes I feel a bit ashamed at the end of the month
00:09:28
when they give me my salary.
00:09:31
Sometimes I ask myself, why are they giving me my salary?
00:09:33
To have a man who does a job which is not common,
00:09:36
who is seen as a semi-hero.
00:09:41
It may seem very difficult,
00:09:48
seeing this relationship from the outside,
00:09:50
one day yes, one day no, almost.
00:09:52
But in my opinion, it's very beautiful
00:09:55
because you never get into the monotony of every day,
00:09:57
so you always experience a new emotion,
00:10:01
like the re-entry.
00:10:04
The first week starts,
00:10:06
where you have to put everything back in order.
00:10:08
It's a re-entry.
00:10:11
So it's something that always goes on,
00:10:13
almost always new.
00:10:16
When he comes back, he tells me.
00:10:19
He tells me a lot.
00:10:22
We don't have the problem of staying up late for dinner,
00:10:24
we don't know what to talk about
00:10:27
after talking about work, about the day,
00:10:29
which is always the same,
00:10:32
stories, friends, meetings, landscapes, photos.
00:10:34
This photo shows that on board,
00:10:40
there is not only the ship,
00:10:43
we take care of everything that is around life.
00:10:45
This is an aperitif,
00:10:50
one of many aperitifs all together,
00:10:52
with the guitar.
00:10:54
This is beautiful because there was a Frenchman,
00:10:56
a Dutchman, an Italian and a Belgian,
00:10:58
so all different nationalities,
00:11:02
which with the guitar is very difficult
00:11:04
because to find the song to sing.
00:11:07
This ship was stuck for a couple of days
00:11:09
and he asked us to pass it in front of us,
00:11:12
here on the nose, to break the ice
00:11:15
to be able to let it pass,
00:11:17
to leave, to unlock it.
00:11:19
The first time I was alone was in the Baltic,
00:11:21
in the sunset, it was winter,
00:11:26
so there was sun, moon, sky,
00:11:29
you feel like a master of the world
00:11:32
because everything under your command,
00:11:35
everything passes from you,
00:11:38
but at the same time,
00:11:40
in the midst of all this,
00:11:42
you feel like a master of the world.
00:11:44
Everything passes from you,
00:11:47
but at the same time,
00:11:49
in the midst of all this scenery,
00:11:51
the sea, the sky, the sun,
00:11:53
you feel tiny, tiny, tiny.
00:11:55
The first time I had to manoeuvre
00:12:03
for a ship that had priority,
00:12:05
I called the commander,
00:12:07
I didn't know what to do,
00:12:09
I said, telephone, commander,
00:12:11
a dangerous ship, what should I do?
00:12:13
I felt like I was at school,
00:12:15
but it was so...
00:12:17
Zoe, you are the captain,
00:12:22
of course, don't forget,
00:12:24
we are always here,
00:12:26
we intervene if there is a problem.
00:12:28
One, you supervise everything
00:12:30
that happens at the gateway
00:12:32
at the navigation level.
00:12:34
Two, you give the bar codes,
00:12:36
the route codes,
00:12:38
based on the information
00:12:40
from the map and from the radar.
00:12:42
I have been a professor
00:12:44
at the Naval School in Versailles
00:12:46
for about three years.
00:12:48
In English, the bar codes, please.
00:12:50
I chose to do this
00:12:53
because my wife was pregnant
00:12:55
and as a sailor, it's not easy.
00:12:57
We were away from home
00:12:59
and I really wanted to participate
00:13:01
in the whole pregnancy,
00:13:03
the birth and certainly
00:13:05
the first years of our baby's life.
00:13:07
But three years away from the sea,
00:13:09
we are sailors,
00:13:11
and it's not possible,
00:13:14
it's really very difficult
00:13:16
to adapt to life on land.
00:13:18
For a sailor,
00:13:20
the freedom that we have
00:13:22
in our profession as sailors
00:13:24
is missing a lot.
00:13:26
There are a lot of people
00:13:28
who say,
00:13:30
oh yes, the romanticism
00:13:32
of navigation,
00:13:34
the romantic sailor,
00:13:36
it's over,
00:13:38
that's not true.
00:13:40
It's more than a discovery,
00:13:42
they get where they want to go.
00:13:44
On course, 040.
00:13:46
Thank you.
00:13:48
Steady as she goes.
00:13:50
Steady.
00:13:52
Steady.
00:13:54
Midships.
00:13:58
Midships.
00:14:00
Midships.
00:14:02
Today is the first time
00:14:04
that I'm sailing.
00:14:06
Midships.
00:14:08
It's exciting,
00:14:10
because you don't know
00:14:12
how the boat reacts,
00:14:14
how everything works,
00:14:16
where everything is.
00:14:18
After a while,
00:14:20
you get used to it
00:14:22
and it's not a problem anymore.
00:14:24
I chose this profession
00:14:36
because there are different facets,
00:14:38
you see different things.
00:14:40
I've always loved science,
00:14:42
but also languages.
00:14:44
I love to learn
00:14:46
new things,
00:14:48
but preferably a lot of different things.
00:14:50
It's in the guts.
00:14:52
I think that...
00:14:54
I really consider it
00:14:56
as a lifestyle
00:14:58
and not as a job.
00:15:00
Because if you consider it as a job,
00:15:02
you don't last long,
00:15:04
there are a lot of sacrifices to make.
00:15:06
If you consider it as a lifestyle,
00:15:08
you make the sacrifices
00:15:10
and you're ready to make them,
00:15:12
so it goes much better.
00:15:14
Zoé?
00:15:16
If the next cup is 2-3-0,
00:15:18
the peniche is in the way.
00:15:20
So we're going to change.
00:15:22
2-4-0 is better?
00:15:26
We live in a confined environment.
00:15:28
2-7-0.
00:15:30
You have to accept
00:15:32
everyone's character and behavior.
00:15:34
It's like a school of life.
00:15:36
It's not just
00:15:38
learning theory or practice.
00:15:40
You have to learn
00:15:42
and take on yourself
00:15:44
when there are remarks that don't please you.
00:15:46
It's the lifestyle that suits me best.
00:15:48
For me, it's the best job in the world.
00:15:50
There's nothing comparable.
00:15:52
And I'm proud to be able to tell people
00:15:54
that I'm at the Marine Merchant School
00:15:56
and later I'll be proud to say I'm a sailor
00:15:58
because I know that
00:16:00
comparing all the jobs in the world to being a sailor
00:16:02
is something unique and exceptional.
00:16:04
The students who enroll here
00:16:12
know in hindsight
00:16:14
that they're going to sail,
00:16:16
that they're going to do practical things
00:16:18
on board a ship compared to other courses,
00:16:20
like law or engineering.
00:16:22
Those are more general things.
00:16:26
They're more specific
00:16:30
in the direction of sailing.
00:16:32
That's why our students are very motivated.
00:16:34
I had my last exam on the 27th of June.
00:16:44
I had the results on the 5th of July.
00:16:48
On the 1st of June,
00:16:52
I already had a job
00:16:54
and I had rejected others
00:16:56
You have the opportunity
00:16:59
to make a lot of money
00:17:01
from the very first day,
00:17:04
which is very important,
00:17:06
especially for young people
00:17:08
to get paid so good
00:17:10
because on land,
00:17:12
it takes a long time
00:17:14
to make some good money.
00:17:16
So you have the opportunity to make good money here.
00:17:18
Of course, good money doesn't mean
00:17:20
that it's not so easy to make all this money.
00:17:22
In the future, it's no longer possible
00:17:28
to sail with a pension.
00:17:30
So a solution has to be found
00:17:32
to start a career on a ship.
00:17:34
It used to be less well-organized.
00:17:36
Now the students are being prepared for that.
00:17:38
A career in itself
00:17:40
gives people a lot of opportunities.
00:17:42
They become real decision-makers.
00:17:44
And that makes it easy
00:17:46
to find people like that
00:17:48
in boards of directors
00:17:50
or companies on the ship.
00:17:52
Comfordai is responsible for 90%
00:17:55
of the shipped goods in the world.
00:17:57
That's a sector in full expansion.
00:17:59
As long as the economy grows,
00:18:01
there is a growth in transport.
00:18:03
And as long as there is a growth in transport,
00:18:05
you have more and more shipping.
00:18:07
You have to consider that 40%
00:18:09
of the world's shipping
00:18:11
is controlled by European companies.
00:18:13
It's up to us to decide
00:18:21
if we want to do
00:18:23
economics or marine science.
00:18:25
You have to be sure
00:18:27
that you like the world,
00:18:29
the sea,
00:18:31
because then you become
00:18:33
a second wife.
00:18:35
You have to be sure
00:18:37
that you want to do it
00:18:39
and to come
00:18:41
because it's the most beautiful thing
00:18:43
in the world.
00:18:45
It's the most beautiful job.
00:18:47
Midships!
00:18:53
Midships!
00:18:55
OK, Bollaris,
00:18:57
what's your destination, please?
00:18:59
Yes, our destination is Jibotar Point.
00:19:01
OK. What kind of ship are you, over?
00:19:03
Gas tankers.
00:19:05
