Awesome stuff, man. My dad used to operate a 75 foot Vietnam era landing craft, tug & barge. From the age of 11, I could dock her by myself. Watching this brought back some good memories from the old days. I’m a pilot now, airplanes, but my heart still yearns for the sea. Godspeed and calm seas to you. -Dallas
As someone who's been looking into working on a tug thanks to your videos, I was wondering what your work schedule is like. Do you have times that you're "active" each day, of is it purely a "when needed" sort of thing? Sorry for the dumb question, I'm still learning a lot!
Just another day at the office
Rhode Island 🏝 Here . Tasha looked just like yours . 🐶🐶🤙Injoy the Holiday Team Willy ,
Hey now! Good morning Capt ☀️ Enjoy the holiday as well my friend! I’ll be thinking about you
Hey now ❤
Hey now!
That's so pretty dog
Hey now! Thank you! She’s a handful 😁
the view is awesome. It like being in the cockpit of some spaceship.
It really is! Thanks for watching 🫡
Nice night views! Do you get to see lots of stars? What was happening with the water when Carlos was out there, was it windy? Oh I see, what's going on with that ship? 😂
Hey now! It was really windy. Not really a lot of stars. The city light are really bright. Thanks for watching as always 🫡
Morning Skipper! another great video. Those winch lines are they that dyneema stuff? Very smooth and can take the equivalent of the same diameter wire rope. it was just coming in when I left. Some of the old boats I worked on where direct acting ( no gear boxes) and starting was done well moored up and hold on tight. After 15 mins the chief would bring them back to stop then it was time to go to work. Fair winds skipper!
Hey now! Spectra is what they are calling it but it’s like the same stuff. Very strong! Thanks for watching as always Capt 🫡
Can we hear the tug boat horn?
I can definitely do that for ya 🫡
Rainbow master
🌈
Hey now! Safety first
Hey now! You know it 🫡
My cousin is a tug boat captain, but i never get to see this stuff.
Hey now! Glad you get to now. Thanks for watching 🫡
Hey now: thx for the early morning BayWay video. Why is all that water coming off the ship thru the hawsepipe? See that on S.F. Bay but always curious. Also, when you’re attached to the port bow, are you helping with turns? Or slowing the ship down? Always interested in what you do.
Hey now! That’s water to help run the hydraulics for the winches. We are mostly just slowing the ship down but we can help turn if necessary. Thanks for watching 🫡
Which tug do you normally use? I work at Port Liberty NY (Howland hook), would love to wave and say hi if I ever see you
Hey now! Good morning my friend! I’m on the Capt Brian. I don’t get back on till next Wednesday. Would love to say hi! 🫡
Must feel like flying a Starship lol ... Sure is a lot of vibration when you start pulling, amazing and so cool! 🙂
Hey now! It’s amazing! If I ever get a chance to fly a Star Ship I’m gonna! Thanks for watching 🫡
What an absolutely beautiful morning. LOVE days like this on the harbor. I haven't even been there is years, but mornings like this will always be special.
Hey now! Glad you enjoyed it! 🫡 It really is the best!
Hey Will, can you break down some of the costs? Not asking for exact numbers but generally how much these ships pay. Is it by the hour? Is it flat rate? Just curious. Nice video with the sunrise. If you ever head down to Norfolk, let me know. I live on Fort Story at the mouth of the Chesapeake. I would love to provide an outside shot of your tugboat.
HeyNow , you are allowing me to feel like a real tug captain in my warm computer room. Thanks for doing these videos!! Mike(captnmike).
Hey now! Captain Mike thank you my friend and I’m glad you enjoy them! 🫡
Wish you would wear a mike so we can hear what's going on better.
I’ll do better. Thanks for watching 🫡
Is this a tanker?
Yes it is!
Personally, I enjoy the nighttime part of the video. :) The lights look all pretty.
Hey now! It never gets old!
New sub thumbsup 👍
Hey now! Welcome aboard! 🫡
Who up Tuggin' they Willy?
Hey now!! 😎🫡
Why is it water coming out of the ship?
Hey now! That’s use for the hydraulics for the winches. Thanks for watching 🫡
Love the night time/early morning videos. Different, relaxing vibe!
Hey now! That’s what I was going for and I’m so glad that you like it! 🫡
Thanks for the ride along, Will. Now is a regular part of my morning coffee I bring up a vessel finder and keep track of where the boat is and what it's doing.
Hey now!! That’s awesome!! Thank you my friend 🫡 Happy Monday
I cant find one that lists tug boats .
Another fun watch. The night to day was excellent. Thanks. From the Tugs POV, is there any difference between handling a tanker vs cargo? It seemed like the tanker was a bit more compliant to the tugs maneuvering.
Hey now! Good morning my friend! You just have to go slower with the Tankers. They are definitely easier to work from a tugs point tho. Thanks as always 🫡
Rhode Island 🏝 Saying Hi Team Willy 😊 Definitely needed a boat ride this morning 😅 , Thanks For asking about the doggie issue, Mare says Hi 👋 😊
Hey now! Good morning Capt! Please tell Mare I say hi as well 👋 Happy Monday my friend !
Hey Now! Love the early morning video! Quick question what engines are you running in the tug you are on? My favorite engines were EMDs. Before you started them you had to open each cylinder to blow the condensation out then secure the cylinders back for each engine. Then when you started them you had to wait to let them get to a safe operating temperature usually about 30 to 45 minutes. Of course this was back in the 80s. Thanks again and safe travels.
Hey now! CATS! I have worked on boats with EMDs. We still have some. A little easier on this boat 😁 Thanks for watching!
@ ok yes I have worked with cats, gms, and emds. Thank for letting me know. Save travels and Happy Thanksgiving to you and your crew.
Hey now, liked seeing the night view of nyc.
Hey now! It never gets old!!
Hey now!!! Sunday morning wakeup.
Hey now!! Hell yeah!! Thank you 🫡
reminds me of the Army with the red lights.
Hey now! Good morning Capt! Thanks for watching as always 🫡
Leggs crossed…..All in a days work. I got into the wrong business!! What a peaceful way to make a living!!
Hey now! I love it! Thanks for watching 🫡
Cool video. I work in the refineries down in Houston. Didn’t recognize any of the scenery so I was able to look it up. That’s the Bayonne bridge, so New York / Jersey area.
Hey now! That’s right! Thanks for watching! You got a pretty cool job yourself 🫡
@ I shoulda waited, further on in the video you talked about the landmarks and even spun us around for a look! I always see the action from the docks, this is a cool perspective. Keep it up bro. 💪🏻
Excellent Team Willy 😊😊 ❤
Hey now! Happy Sunday Capt! Hope y’all enjoying the weekend 🫡
THE ONLY GUYS THAT WILL RUN IN TO YOU INTENTIONALLY
Right! Thanks for watching 🫡
Great looking tug! One thing I have learned if your boat looks good inside and out the captain and crew care about their boat.
Hey now! That’s very true and thanks for watching!! 🫡
🤙
💯🫡
Is this Savannah?
NYC! Thanks for watching 🫡
Team Willy ,Injoy , Hope you have the weekend , im going to relax 🍺🤙
Hey now! Enjoy the weekend my friend!! Appreciate you 💯🫡
Have a Great Day!
Hey now! You too!
Can you teach an older (82) sea dog new tricks? With your video, I boarded the 21st C. Seeing BOTH of your hands at work, understanding the center of each controller indicates direction of thrust was an epiphany! Many, many thanks.
Hey now! So glad that you enjoyed it Capt! That means a lot 🫡
Rhode Island Saying Injoy 🤙🤙🤙 Team Willy
Hey now! Good morning Capt! Happy Thursday my friend 💯🫡
why in hell is the pilot boarding the cargo ship from the tug????
That’s the docking pilot. They always board this way. Thanks for watching 🫡
