They can be one of the most frustrating ships to bring a bunker barge along side of.

I helped a friend find and purchase another friends cabin cruiser. I took care of the maintenance and operated the vessel for him. He never learned how to operate his boat and passed several years ago. I have been friends with the owner of the where we kept her. He was always amazed at how I could maneuver her, single screw with no thrusters. Patience and years of experience. We've enjoyed the Chesapeake, with family property in the lower eastern shore, lake Erie, with family property on Catawba and the Ashtabula/ conneaut area, lake Michigan, and both coasts. Love the water and seafood!

It was pretty cool because she was a caregiver and Shaver lived in a penthouse apartment in the West hills overlooking the Willamette River. You can walk over to the window and look at the river and see the barges. 🇺🇲👍⛵

Was privileged to be aboard USS NEW JERSEY on the transit from the former Philadelphia Naval Shipyard drydock 3 to Paulsboro NJ abt 10 days ago to allow for dewatering prior to return to our home port of Camden NJ. While underway with tug assist (the US Navy rightfully has opinions about firing up our boilers) the knowledge to bring us out, up the Delaware river, and to out mooring in Paulsboro without any sense of moving is a testament to the skills of the profession. Was even a little disappointed to feel ZERO sense of movement in the entire transit. Of course part of that is ~47,000 tons of mass, but MOST of that is due to the training, skills and knowledge of those in your trade. Bravo Zulu to Tim and your peers.

I was stationed Long B and watched them bring in Herman the German to work on the Jersey turrets. It was a good view of the battle wagon from pier 7. Because I was on a Perry doing antenna maintenance. But we got underway when the actual lift was done. Depending on the captains confidence of the helmsman we did not use a tug. Then there was Tommy Two Tugs. Yes that Perry had thrusters. Also no real need for the LM2500s inside the port. They always fired up the turbines along side the pier. I guess that was the naval version of 4 wheel drive and 4 wheel steering. It also was a better ride than a Knox. But not as good as a Sprue Can.

I think this is fascinating channel. I live in the Finger Lakes Region of NYS, we simply do not have huge ship or tug boats that are bigger than our village. Gridlock in my town is having to wait 2 light changes. Yet you move around on the trackless water, find your "customer" and with a boat that is longer than most of our village blocks, put it exactly where it is intended. And that tug has more stuff on it than our entire fire department carries on their dozen rigs.

We often have fuel barges leave their screws turning for long periods of time while they’re already along side and tied up. As a crane operator it makes it unsafe for cargo operations at times because it moves the ship along side the dock. Moving the ship unexpectedly makes us no longer centered on the hatch. This can be dangerous. As a crane operator I hope that any tug boat captains reading this try to reduce this as much as possible if container cargo operations are under way.

Never tried precision ship handling at 400'. Seems you have to be quite a bit ahead of where the tow is at any given time. Most I've ever done is 104' stern in at a dock with about a 2kt tidal flow away from the dock. 3 big screws and a deckhand who understood the task made it look like I was an expert. I was sweating bullets. Up till then the biggest I'd handed was a twin screw 83'er on an end tie. I miss my teen years on the Santa Monica Bay handling other people's yachts. (I had an old Wheeler. The Pink Panther. She was sister ship to Hemingway's Pilar.)

Another stupid question from a Welsh sheep farmer , What is the short wide ladder thingy with rows of what look like old fashioned shed lights ? every fuel barge seams to have one . Found your last trip on goggle earth , I had no idea that New York's harbour system was so vast , endless docks and container terminals . AWESOME .

Hi Tim, really like the content. One thing you can do if you have the software to get past these slow channel passages; speed up the footage. You can add music or more likely, some narration as to what your doing and compress a long slow journey into a quick one.

Interesting thing I’ve noticed in my commercial fishing boat marina is a lack of flags or wind indicators. You mentioned using dryer steam. Would you ever mount a flag or sock on the barge to help you manage your charge. I mounted a flag on my dock piling. I have big sail for a 50’. It sure helps.

Stumbled in...staying. Subscribed, white bell and thumbs up. Most enjoyable to see you close up, working where the business gets done. Really enjoyed your narrative and explanations of the how and the why as you manoeuvre. Watching how you backed out of King's Point was very interesting. No problem visualising rudder position and the effects of the port and starboard engines as they are being used thanks to your explanations. Keeping the bow mast centre of shot is much appreciated since it gives an excellent visual reference. The interplay between you and the Chief was fascinating. I'd love to be able to hear the Chief as plainly as you, maybe mike up his speaker somehow because that would complete the picture of the interplay as the barge is controlled. Cheers from the Great White North, E. Ont.

Be great to get an overhead view of boat. Can’t imagine size of tug and what overall we are dealing with. From this view looks huge like you are pushing a barge in front of you. Need more cameras to get better understanding. But I love how careful you are and doing everything slowly. Really like views of that disaster bridge collapse you slowly navigated Thur at such a slow speed not to effect those guys hanging up there cutting up bridge.
