Thank you folks very much. Its Ben a few days since we've been graced by one of you troubadour's telling us some history. Thank you for everything you have done and continue to do.
LOVE your channel! Living here in AZ for 10 years and enjoy your history channel! So interesting! We are thankful for people like you keeping our very important history alive!
Thanks Hank for a juicy tale that floats my boat! Really, great job. Picturesque video that captivates. Always glad when a new one comes out. Lvya guys much
To be correct; the engines you are referring to are 6-71 Detroit Diesels. They produce 200hp each and were widely used throughout the marine industry. Excellent channel!
Great story, I spent my childhood at canyon lake. Side note: the reason it was called Mormon flats, before the dam was built there was a Mormon settlement there.
Ah! My favorite story teller! Thanks for sharing these nautical tidbits. I've been to Canyon lake, it is beautiful and so is the drive there. With one exception though, I would have enjoyed it MUCH better if my husband wasn't trying to scare the bejesus out of me around those sharp corners! Sheesh!! Happy Easter, to you and yours!
No ocean front property yet ... Back in the 60's they swore California was going to fall into the ocean making Arizona the west coast . still waiting .
A bald eagle at Canyon Lake. Incredible. I never knew they liked bass. I've only seen them eat trout and salmon. If I brought in that stern wheeler, think I would have named her the "Cactus Queen."
In some states a float tube (basically an inner tube) needs to be registered. It only has to be registered in California if it has a motor; gas or electric. I do not know about Arizona. .
has anyone seen the i found the priest video ? from the peralta stone maps , apparently it can only be seen has a shadow from rocks in black and white ..... anything & everything youtube channel
More boats than Florida!!? I'm thinking that's Arizona mythology! Now the Detroit 671 Diesel, is a six cylinder, and each cylinder has a cubic inch displacement, of "71 cubic inches." Hence, the "671 detroit Diesel." And the 671 is a 'two stroke engine.' Meaning it has only 2 strokes for each cylinder. A compression stroke and then and exhaust and recharge stroke. The 671 has a 'blower,' on the side of the engine block, where it compresses air and blows it into the intake ports, just as the piston comes up for the next compression stroke. At the time I served, they didn't have turbochargers. Just the good ole screaming blower! But the '671,' is not in reference to horsepower. Just how many cylinders and cubic inches for each cylinder. They generated approx., 500 HP, giver or take. The '871,' Detroit, has 8 cylinders... I worked on these engines in the Navy, they were called 'Detroit Grey Marine,' engines. I'd almost bet that's what you had in that tug boat!. There's videos on the Detroit 671s on YT!
@Hank Sheffer Well buddy, All I can say is, after 22 years, it felt good to finally offload some info on the 671 Detroit diesel, that no one would have EVER asked for otherwise! So... You welcome!
Hank tells a great story. Entertaining and educational
Another true treasure of the superstitions is both Hank and Larry and their guest with the great legends of the superstition mountains
Awesome!!!
Awesome history told by our favorite spell-binder, Mr. Hank.

Correct Craig. Thank You Hank for all that you do, great job I really enjoy your channel.

Great Video TY!
Great story
Glad you enjoyed it
Good story !
Thank you. I learned something, that two propellers turn in opposite directions.
I got $3 so I'll be going for a coffee, now.🙂
A 6-71 Detroit, is 71 cubic inches per cylinder; 6 times; it is about 283 hp

What year did they fill Canyon Lake with water?
Good story.
No ocean front property yet ... Back in the 60's they swore California was going to fall into the ocean making Arizona the west coast . still waiting .
No luck yet. Many still hold out hope though.
It did fall into a shit hole.
Still hoping!
@@rtopalovich well if it ever does (very doubtful) the resulting tsunami would wash most of Arizona and Nevada clean also.
I will happen… Half of Arizona might be flooded though…
I was born in Tucson Arizona 6- 2- 1951
A bald eagle at Canyon Lake. Incredible. I never knew they liked bass. I've only seen them eat trout and salmon.
If I brought in that stern wheeler, think I would have named her the "Cactus Queen."
Or....."Canyon Queen."
a boat 10 ft. or under with no motor doesn't need to be registered.
In some states a float tube (basically an inner tube) needs to be registered. It only has to be registered in California if it has a motor; gas or electric. I do not know about Arizona.
.
I heard when i was a kid that Az has the most shore line but the water is never in the rivers and creeks.
Just a thought does it still have water in it . If so guard it carefully or someone try pump all the water elsewhere
Innertubes have to be registered?
helps in their recovery when stolen and resold in Florida.
You mean to say that wooden plank I used for 2 mins of fun when a wash was flowing has to be registered?
A buck and a quarter won't get you any coffee at starbucks.
671 Detroit diesel means it has 6 cylinders 71 cubic inches per cylinder, it doesn't mean 671 horsepower
Thanks men !!! I hope all of yoy are still flinging bullets !! ( :
Great story but the GM 6-71 does not indicate horse power. It designate 6 cylinders at 71 cubic inches per cylinder
Thanks, Dee. I've always wondered what that stood for.

So... You welcome!
You do not have to register man powers craft. Canoes, kayaks and such.
Folks from AZ love to tout the boats per capita fable. Complete nonsense of course.
inner tubes count as boats here. Salt River Armada!
So.....
