Judging from the size of the chain, someone has a death wish.

Yeah 5000lb. Rated for lifting. I just can't control these guys. Then they get mad when I say something about it.

Also got this big boy at work yesterday too.

Why are they so high in the water? I heard that they were all full, sitting around, storing oil.

There are a lot of tankers full sitting around at anchor thanks to the price war between Saudi Arabia and Russia. However the majority of those are ULCC/VLCC so much bigger than the one in the picture. There are thousands of tankers around the world so the number that are sitting full at idle is relatively small. As for the ones in this picture, I would surmise they are waiting to load having traveled in ballast from wherever they discharged their previous cargo.

And just to stop some killjoy from giving me a negcat, here is an obligatory picture.

shear ignorance is not a good way to relieve the bosses tension

Those people are nuts if they think that overrated performance will elevate anything, let alone their positions in the chain of command.
