that wheelhouse looks like it would take a lot of effort to keep clean with all that wood trim. saw some harbor pilots transported by helicopter, probably columbia oregon. that's expensive. your the only tug i've seen doing so. makes sense, save a couple of boat trips.

Do you ever work cruise ships? Just curious as I’m an avid cruiser. I stumbled upon your videos and have been enjoying them.
@tugboatwilly843Ай бұрын
Hey now! Thank you! We don’t really do too many cruise ships. They have big thrusters and dock and sail themselves. Every now and then when it’s really windy we will help one. Thanks for watching 🤙

ive never really thought about it how do containerships like load an unload? do they unload some, then load some like ping ponging from port to port or do they stay at one port unload all then get reloaded an sent off to their destination port unload all an reload?

Gave it a thumbs up cause I like your videos but for me it wasn't your best. Not as much explanation of what was going on kinda left us in the dark on a lot of it. Sorry, Capt.
