I have always loved Tugboats ever since I was a little kid. Definitely the hardest working boat in the harbor. Sturdy and strong.

You are not fooling me you just didn’t want to walk up all theses steps to the bridge. I really enjoyed that tour.

Love the "technicals" and by no means "boring".

Looks like a little city at sea ! Just about everything you could possibly need while you were gone for any length of time. Thanks for sharing your ship with us Tim !

Complexity matched to competence. Way too cool Cap Tim!

You're the man, thanks for these videos. And sharing your knowledge and experience with us.

"I'm not shrinking...I'm settling." Ha! So true for all of us. May you continue settling for many years to come. :) :) :)

I remember “Tug boat Anne”! That’s old.

Tim. Not boring not boring. For you I’m sure, but I love all these details. Thanks and CUOTO.

THANKS TIM FOR EXPLAINING ABOUT YOUR TUG, AND THE PROP NOZZLE AND WHY THEY ARE DESIGNED THE WAY THEY ARE AND IT GIVES YOU BETTER PULLING POWER

Thank you! Loved the tour👍 It never stops fascinating me how complex boats are, with all their different systems. All the best wishes for your new position!

Hey Tim you da man even though you can't get alongside a car ship your vids are AAA+ content thanks for showing the world what we do.

Thanks for the tour, and many thanks to your company for allowing you to show us your office!

Fascinating stuff! I often see the different Types of tugs in the Sany Hook and Philly areas but always wondered about the mechanics and what was involved with making the run. Great job explaining things. Better than any show on TV, Thanks!

Thanks!

New Sub. I worked on a pilot boat back in 90’s.(Port Royal, S.C.) After I dropped the Pilot off I would hang around, and, go out on the tug (1960’s)for extra wage. Extra wage would most always workout except for times when the Custom Agents would show up to inspect a “Bulk” hauling concrete mix from South America.(looking for Kakain). That would be a long day of sitting around. Love your Channel.

There's a definite change of 'feel' with the Puerto Rico operations - you are now an offshore vessel, ready to be at sea for weeks without resupply (and needing to handle whatever the weather throws at you). On the 'spontaneous combustion' - really worth reminding people that some paints (e.g. using linseed oil) harden by a chemical reaction with oxygen - not just the solvent evaporating. That reaction makes heat, and goes faster when hot. Thus piles of paint covered rags have large surface area (more heat) - insulate each other (more heat) - get hot (react faster - more heat). And that can progress to fire. Add in some tropical sunshine on the locker and that extinguisher is a really good idea (as is an external paint locker) Please thank your bosses for permitting these videos - I doubt any viewers will contract your company to tow them, but I'd bet there will be suitable people apply to work at sea because you showed what it's like.[For the bean counters - that's a direct reduction in recruitment costs due to Tim's videos🙂] You take a pride in running a safe happy ship - it shows - and it reflects well on your company. Fair weather - good luck in the 2022 hurricane season

A wonderful tour of your tug, very enjoable and informative. Thank you Capt.

Recently found your channel. It was great to see around the inside of a tug. Thanks for showing it

“The wire cuts people in half…. And that’s kinda awful!” 🤣🤣🤣 Fun video!! #CUOTO

Tanks for the tour

A GREAT INFORMATIVE VIDEO... A WONDERFUL TEACHER THANK YOU FOR SHARING!

Good morning Captain Tim, I couldn't help but laugh when you forgot what you were talking about right after you explained slippage,, we all have a little slippage as we age, I also seem to have the shrinking and widening thing happening. Thanks for the great tour, when I was in the Navy they always said there is nothing that salt water and sailors can't F**k up. so I understand about the light rust you had. I have been spending some time watching tow boats on the Mississippi river,, they get mad if you call them tugs.lol. Again thank you for taking the time to make and edit these videos. CUOTO

Really interesting. Man I wished that more people would interested in really technical videos. Getting the technical part together with the practical impact from someone that’s got all of your experience is a real treat.

Cold and rain in NY harbor today. I bet you don’t miss it!

Lucky you, the Caribbean. Woohoo.

Thanks Tim it's never boring, always learning.

Gorgeous new boat Congrats 😊

Great tour, and amazing. Thank you!

Thank you .. Thats a big badass tugboat 👍

Thanks for the tour! I really enjoyed it and learned a lot!.... Thanks for taking the time to educate all of us!

The biggest benefit to a nasal is helps to keep stuff out of the wheels

Boring!?!? Are you kidding!? I was hanging on Every.Single.Word. This is absolutely fascinating! Thank you so much for the tour and explanations!

Excellent and informative video. Appreciate you taking the time for the tour.

Tim, thanks very much for showing us the new boat. I really appreciate how you explain things and always take the time to define things that we may not know or might have forgotten. Thanks to your advice, I have gotten my MMC (o/s, wiper, steward) and one day will take the leap into the hawsepipe.

Tim always broadcasting great and instructive videos. Great work captn.

Thanks for the great tour. Always interesting. Havagudun Cap.

thanks for the tour...

I saw a large Norwegian stern trawler in Mallaig years ago that had stuffed the bow into a big wave. It bent in the steel below the bridge windows and broke them too. My friend Alister MacDonald worked for the ship yard there that fixed up the local fishing fleet. He said they'd lost all the bridge electronics and also took tons of water down the companionway and flooded the galley and damaged the equipment there too.

Man Alive! The sheer complexities of it all! A self sufficient ship and crew at sea.....nice.

Great ship Excellent video

Great explaination Tim, thanks for the clear information.

Thanks for the tour Skipper. Haven't been aboard ship in quite a few years and this was very interesting.

Very informative! Thank you very much.

Great to see below deck. tks

Fantastic tour really enjoyed the video. I bet with a good crew 3 weeks out just flies by. Thanks for showing us around.

Very interesting tour thank you

Very good. Always enjoy a full boat tour.

Another great video capt. Tim .

Now this, this is the kind of tech video i've been waiting for! Being a systems guy, this was awesome to see the tools you have to perfect your craft. Thanks Tim!

Thanks Tim for showing us your new boat!

It's called hardfacing when they weld to save the metal

Very nice wheelhouse Tim,nothing can beat real timber joinery in the wheelhouse.

That was awesome Capt! Thank you so much for the tour. I can't believe you get paid for this type of work. What a cool job, and tug. Be safe!

Very cool Tim. Loved watching NYC waters that I rode in with my dad in our 16 ft. 85 hp runabout when I was a kid (1972 ish) but these just as good if not better because of the change of scenery. I'll be here every Tuesday.

Great video Tim! CUOTO!

Super interesting will be checking back in used to work in a plant that made crankshaft for marine use they were EMD motors

Hey Tim, your videos are always educational, interesting and informative. Keep making them. Greetings from Barbados.

Only from the outside it's clear how huge the barge is. Thank you for the tour!

I can relate to the settling and getting wider theory.

Thank you! That was a fantastic tour. I liked the part about Kort Nozzles.

Went fishing with your old ship mate yesterday in the Gulf of Mexico Tony McFarland. He is about crew change and go thur the Panama Canal to California.

Thank you Tim!

Very interesting. Thank you!!!!
