Inside the Captain's Cabin on a $200M Container Ship (12 Decks Above Where 21 Sailors Sleep)

The captain's cabin on the largest container ship in the world is the size of a small apartment. Twelve decks below it, at the bottom of the same tower, is a room so narrow you can touch both walls. This is a tour of that tower from the top down: one captain, twenty one sailors, and the strange truth about who actually sleeps. You will see the safe that holds tens of thousands of dollars in cash, the bond store most of the crew never opens, the two dining rooms fed by the same galley, the ten square meter cabins where sailors spend nine months, and the telephone by the captain's bed that explains why the best cabin on the ship belongs to the person who uses it least. Crew Quarters takes you inside the places where working people sleep in the most extreme corners of the planet. Container ships, oil rigs, nuclear submarines, icebreakers, aircraft carriers, Antarctic stations. Where do they sleep? What do they eat? How do they shower? And why would most of them never trade it for a desk?
