- The 1013-foot ship Paul R. Tregurtha departed with a new sound record as it went under the Aerial Lift Bridge in Duluth, MN. The decibel meter recorded its horn blast at 125.3 decibels! The previous record holder was the ship James R. Barker. The Tregurtha is also the longest ship on the Great Lakes.

Gorgeous weather in Duluth. The PRT is carrying coal purchased by Detroit Edison from Spring Creek Mine, Montana. Under this contract BNSF Railway coal trains depart the mine three times per day. Train symbols are: C SCMSUD. The trains average 135 cars each. They are re-crewed in Glendive, MT; Mandan, ND & Dilworth, MN.
Great catch on the horn!
Bill, next level information brother. This is awesome. Never heard of this mine! Boat Friends, check it out here! navenergy.com/spring-creek/
@@vibewithmike new item I learned today. Thanks to the boat friends here.
Yeah, I know what you mean, I had no idea about that Spring Creek mine! So cool!
@@vibewithmike I did a bit more research-Detroit Edison is also buying coal now from the Antelope Mine near Gillette, WY. That’s longer transit however that would imply their price per ton at the mine is lower than Spring Creek. Train symbols for those coal trains: C ATMSUD.
Bill, I pinned your comment to the very top of the comment section. Super beneficial information for all of us.👍
Can you imagine standing on the deck, at the bow of this huge ship!?!? 125 record breaking decibels!! Heaven on earth! Thanks so much, Mike, for your videos and expertise on this vessel. All of your fans feel this way. ❤❤❤❤❤
This ship is one of the most incredible feats of human engineering. I love it so much. The PRT is so awesome.👋⛴️👍
Thanks for sharing from the UK 🇬🇧
@paultraynorbsc627 thanks Paul!
@@vibewithmike i once flew over superior and was amazed seeing those ships
@paultraynorbsc627 someday I will be able to fly over superior/Duluth. That would be very cool to see the ships from that perspective. Did you see the unexpected surprise ship departure last night? Take a look look at this video.

The PRT makes her presence known not by just her great size but also with her fantastic Horn / whistle / Klaxon. Safe trip Captain and crew!! Great video as always Mike , appreciate all of your posts!!
The PRT is the biggest and loudest ship now!!!!!📣👋👍⛴️
I think that you've turned us into "Boat Fiends" more so than "boat friends".
Thanks for all the videos, comments and information!
I never knew a thing about "Laker Boats" until I came across your channel. And now I'm an addicted fanatic for them!
Ha!!!!!!! Boat Fiends!!! I definitely would classify myself as an addict with these ships!!!!😂😂😂😂😂😂
@@vibewithmike XOXO 😻
That cat photo still gets me every time! Love that photo!
All hail The Queen. 😊❤😊
One of the most beautiful ships out there. I hope you subscribe (it’s free) and come back to my channel to watch more ship videos moving forward. It’s all about having fun with the ships!👍👍👍⛴️⛴️⛴️
Wow! The Queen of the Lake is close to a _quarter-mile long!_ Horn salutes never get old! 😊💜
I was preparing for the horn blast and still jumped out of my chair. It looked like some of the people weren't even phased by it. Great video Mike.
Katherine, should I have a sound warning label on the video? It really was that loud my friend. Wow! 📣👋👍⛴️
@@vibewithmike No- then that would ruin the surprise. Hearing the salutes between the ships and the bridge is a great part of your videos.
You got it! I’ll leave it be. Thanks!👋🙏
What an awesome lady of the lakes. Ethel merman would be proud how bellows out her song. Thanks as always Mike you are certainly able to make my day. Peace!!

@@vibewithmike Glad I can contribute.
Thanks Chuck!🙏
Wow, a huge salute! I can’t imagine how it sounded it person. It never gets old seeing the PRT. Thanks for sharing
Big House, it was the first horn noise. You hear that a eclipsed 125 db.📣
Another great video, Mike. I have watched several documentaries on the Tregurtha over the years. She really is a huge ship. I know that there is simply no way to put these ships into perspective by watching them on a TV.
What a beautiful place you live in, Mike. Glad to see you inching to 10K subs very shortly as well. You definitely deserve it and many more.
Cheers, from The Woodlands, Texas today!
Mitch
Honestly, I was stunned when I had one subscriber. This is all just fun for me. It’s just wonderful talking to people about ships. I’m having a blast.
Thanks for the great views. ❤❤❤❤❤the lakes. Proud and LOUD!
Hey Mike, 👋How's it going? What a great day to watch ships. 77 degrees. That pontoon driver has a perfect spot. She never gets old to me. I always enjoy seeing her. She is a hard working vessel that is for darn sure. WOW!! New Record!! It is well deserved for the Queen of the Lakes. 🏆Hey, I jumped too. I knew it was coming but you never know exactly when. Safe travels to the captain and crew to your next destination. Beautiful, Beautiful ship!!! You really need to get someone to take some photos of these ships and the gorgeous sky. Take care my friend and chat later. 🙋🚢
Karen, the ship is so huge! It’s so impressive! How funny is that where I knew completely there was about to be a horn at a certain point, but it’s still had me jump a few inches!😂 On the video playback that first loud blast was the record noise. Did you hear it in a St. Paul?👋⛴️👍📣
@@vibewithmike 😂😂. Very faintly!!! I just love that ship. She's so awesome. 😎😎 I very vaguely remember seeing a vessel when I was there years ago and it might have been her. No wonder I am so fond of her.
I’ll bet it WAS the PRT!!!!!!
@@vibewithmike It probably was. I can remember seeing a name on the bow but I don't know if it was the PRT or maybe the, JRB. I love all of them.
Thanks Mike, great job. Appreciate you sharing
Steve, thanks for watching my friend. Have an awesome Friday night.
Look forward to your detailed tours. A friend here in Menomonie, WI grew up in Duluth and tunes into your tours. I love the ships here. I grew up in New Haven CT on Long Island Sound and got to see a lot of freighters in my life. Watching your tours and seeing the water and boats helps me not feel so lonesome for the Ocean.
My daughter and I hope to spend a weekend in Duluth this summer and really hope to see you there. Take care and keep on with what you do so well.
Amazing ship. Thank you for what you do, Mike.
Johnny, yes it was. Thanks for watching bro. Have a great Friday.
Wow even with the warnings from y'all and turned down volume I still jumped too! Beautiful video Mike, as always, thanks. Awesome ship! 🚢🛳️
The beach looks pretty nice too! Great day for it 😎
Tammy, I’m telling you friend, that horn was no joke! I’ve listened to the video and it’s loud there too. That first horn blast you hear is the record. It hit 125 dB.📣👍⛴️👋
@@vibewithmike Mike, what time was this today? I was trying to find it on the live canal cam as well
@@vibewithmike Also, those waves were something else this afternoon!! Wow! Watched a speed boat leaving the harbor bouncing up and down heading into the waves
This was from the other day
Thank you, Mike! I'd have jumped too. It actually made me jump in my seat even though I knew to expect it. She's fabulous!
Shelley, I was expecting a horn blast but not that horn blast!👍📣👋
It's so great there are people out there sharing knowledge and even bits of history about all these ships. It makes the "ship chasing " community a total evperience!
I’m learning something new everyday from everyone! It’s so wonderful! Have a great weekend!
You are right Mike. It never-ever gets old! Always draws a huge crowd, and for good reason. If you start watching at 1:25, as you zoomed in you'll see what looks like 6 juvenile Herring gulls. It's easy to see their mottled brown color/pattern. It takes 4 years to become a full adult Herring gull. Adults loose all of their mottling and then change to have light-gray backs, black wingtips, and white heads and underparts.
Chuck, are these juvenile Herring gulls going to grow up and be part of the gull party that shows up after each ship?
@@karengausman1459 yes they will join the party when they get old enough!!
Great observation Chuck! Boat friends, take a look at the difference between Seagulls and Herring gulls! a-z-animals.com/blog/herring-gull-vs-seagull/
Karen, they were resting on the wall but I have a feeling that horn got them to move!😂📣
@@vibewithmike 😂😂. Yeah I think you're right about that!!
That ship is impressive front to back. What a horn
I agree-- the videos capture these ships beautifully, yet I still can't imagine the sheer size. Love those clouds.
Terri!!!! I’m telling you, the ships are absolutely enormous!!!!!!👋👋👍👍👍⛴️⛴️⛴️
Wow, love the PRT. Only wish I could see it in person. What a beautiful day in Duluth!
Glenn! The horn blew me away man! It was crazy loud. 📣📣📣📣📣
Make no mistake, the PRT is BIG in everyway! WOW! It is almost out of the canal before it goes under the bridge, and that horn, whew!!! Great video Mike, thanks for sharing it!
Corey, if you were with me after that ship went by I don’t think we could hear each other talk!😂😂😂😂😂😂
Thanks Mike!!! Happy weekend to you!!! ❤🌞🛳
Happy Friday Pam! I left the Twin Cities yesterday when it was 100° and arrived in Duluth when it was 71°. What a huge difference. I hope you have an awesome weekend my friend!⛴️👍🥳🎉👋
Absolutely awesome, thanks for sharing. I’d love to see that in person. Best to you
Hollywood, I hope you subscribe and come back to my channel to watch more ship videos moving forward. It’s all about having fun. No agenda, just chilling out with the ships!👍👍👍⛴️⛴️⛴️
Very nice! New subscriber here! Will be binge watching these when I get back to work!
Your ship videos are awesome. I love boats. have been into boats since i was young. When you see something that big and the way they handle the water is so cool
J W, I really appreciate that awesome comment my friend. I was never around many boats when I was younger, but I’ve always had a love for these big ships. It’s a dream for me to be able to see them in person and I still can’t believe that I have a RUclips channel documenting them. Serious, I can’t believe it. I would never believe it years ago.
Wow! Even on video, that salute was so loud, I jumped! Really impressed that you held the camera steady at that moment.😊
Ha! Yeah, you have a good point! That camera could have flew out of my hand! That first horn blast was a serious jolt.
Ahoy ! Paul R. Tregurtha !! Beauty , indeed !! 👋 Hey Mike , keep on keeping on boat friend !! 🌞
The PRT! Laura, does it get any better?
Amazing ship! Wow, thanks Mike! ❤
👍👍👍👍⛴️⛴️⛴️⛴️⛴️👋👋👋
I love the footage you get of them giants coming around the corner slowly revealing themselves
I always try to get them coming around the corner
Good old soaking up some sun day watching ships come in amazing
I love watching those ships. Did you see the wild weather in Duluth yesterday? Take a look at Lake superior getting angry. ruclips.net/video/qXRXlkxES5k/видео.htmlsi=ydJYAmNLUjjVARaw
Hey Mike, if you pause around the 6:15 mark when you are looking at the bridge, the 2 white dome shaped things on top of the poles are likely receivers for things like GPS, AIS, satellite internet, etc... Also, I have noticed some of the lakers with an aft pilothouse have an additional radar on the watch station on the bow, which makes sense as having close to 1000 feet of ship in front of the radar would likely block some of its visibility. Also, just above the radar there are some small instruments painted black sticking up. These are likely weather related. It looks like an anemometer for reading wind speed and direction. Absolutely crucial information when you are sailing on a ship that is essentially a floating wall. Also, sounds like the PRT is coming after the JRB in a big way.
Boat Friends! PLEASE READ Andrew’s Comment! Wow! Filled with so much detail and awesome information. Andrew, please, in the future it would be awesome for you to drop any comment. I can tell you know exactly what’s going on with things. I’m still learning a lot about the maritime industry. People like you can really help us. I can’t tell you how appreciative I am for such a great comment and I know others will feel the same way. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge with us and have a most excellent Friday night!👋👍🙏⛴️
Imagine steering a vehicle from such a long way back!
@@vibewithmike Anytime Mike! I grew up on lake Michigan and my grandmother worked at the Soo Locks so I have been watching these awesome ships for a very long time. Thanks for sharing them with us!
Wow! How awesome! You know man, that is a place I have still have not visited, the Soo Locks! I’ve read a lot about the place and watched many videos. However, having your grandmother work there is a legit family connect to the place! Again, I really appreciate your comment and getting to meet you! Have an awesome Saturday!!!!⛴️👋
Vicky! I have a tough enough time steering my SUV into a parking space at the store!😂😂😂😂👍👍👍
Nice video! I like that at 2:17 you use an implement to point things out, I do that at work too lol. Also really liked those specs and details at around 3:10, hadn’t heard of this ship (West coaster) so it was nice to get those details
Yes, I use a red laser pointer and work too!😂
I hope you subscribe and come back to my channel to watch more ship videos moving forward. It’s all about having fun. No agenda, just chilling out with the ships!👍👍👍⛴️⛴️⛴️
Thank you sir. Its a brilliant ship so huge!!!
This ship is absolutely enormous. You are totally right. I want you to see the live stream from this morning. This is a 1000 foot vessel. Let me know what you think. ruclips.net/user/liveWbehPxCUeBI?si=lvX58vB9qiOj7xjQ
Hi Mike I can't believe how tiny the two men were compared to the ship. It really gives you an idea of her size. Shocking! I saw her from the air in 2017 leaving Thunder Bay. I believe we were half way into our flight. I used to fly planes when I lived in Amarillo Texas working as a nurse. Love your voice, your commentary and your videos. I know you read our comments. Thank you. Maybe we will see you when I come to Duluth to see the Queen. Oh I just watched a video where you said to look for the blue light. Great! All the Best to you in the New Year. Gail Hanchar Ottawa, Ontario
You have beautiful weather. It's 96 here in Baltimore. I jumped when the horn blew.
The weather has been really good. We are lucky in Duluth! 👋⛴️👍
What, what, WHAT, were you saying something ??? OMG, that was one hellofa salute. a new record holder and you were there to record it. Great job as always !!! 😵😱😃
What?????👂👂👂👂👂📣📣📣📣📣📣
David, brother, it totally stunned me how loud it was. I must’ve been at the perfect angle next to the wall because it was louder than I’ve ever recorded it.
My fave... the PRT. That horn blast made me jump. 😂
It’s my favorite too! The PRT is waking Duluth up!📣👋👍⛴️
I went to Duluth in 2022 and unfortunately didn't see any ships that weekend. That's the closest you can get to these mighty ships. I can get relatively close in Pt Huron but it's still quite a ways away. Always a dream to ride on one of these ships.
Thanks for the videos.
Great Video Mike That Was A Great Salute It Scared Me PRT Rocks Weather Is Headed This Way Tonight be Safe. And Have a Great Friday Night😊
I know, even the playback you can tell it was super loud in person! 📣📣📣📣📣📣📣👂👂👂👂👂👂👂
Never gets old, love the PRT!!
Bring that PRT every day I say!!!!!’😂👍⛴️
Saw it come in on Sunday. What an awesome experience!!!
WOW! HOLY SMOKES! THAT WAS FRICKEN' AWESOME! 💯
You can’t beat the biggest ship on the Great Lakes. It’s such an awesome ship. I hope you’re doing great my friend.
I didn't know that symbol was to indicate the location of the thruster. I just thought it was a logo for Interlake Steamship.
Taofled, check this out. Here’s a good visual that shows the thrusters below the symbol. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Maneuvering_thruster
Interlake Steamship Company is the real deal!👋⛴️👍www.interlake-steamship.com/
@@vibewithmike Ah! Cool! thanks for showing that.
I just learned about that myself a few months back. I’m still learning every day. It’s so fun. Always something new to check out.
Wow I learned alot from the conversation. Thanks for the link to the thrusters info.😂
I know this area so well. Spent a lot of time down there as a kid, even though I lived 40 miles from Duluth. It was cheap entertainment for a young kid.
Tom, Duluth really can capture a persons heart. How cool is that that you were able to enjoy this area as a kid. Lucky! I bet you saw a lot of ships as a kid to down there?
The great salute "I saw you see me see, me see you , see me see you! " LOL! Thanks!
This comment gave me a great laugh. I hope you’re having a fantastic Monday, my friend. Thank you for taking time out of your day to watch the ship and to drop a great, as well. All the best to you and your family. I hope you subscribe and come back to my channel to watch more ship videos moving forward. It’s all about having fun with the ships!👍👍👍⛴️⛴️⛴️
Great to see PRT back . There was definitely an echo from the horn . Great video Mike
I definitely thought there was an echo as well
This is fascinating. Just to experience this... Are you kidding this is wonderful❤❤... Is just to hear it in person..❤❤
Made it in your video! Was up from Chicago with one of my kids for a few days and was great to see this ship as well at the Block and Munson ships. Great city. Saw you filming and was going to stop by say hi afterwards but by time I walked your way you had left.
Darn! I’m sorry we missed each other! Let me know ahead of time if you make it to Duluth again. Check my email address on the about section here on RUclips. I have a treat if you haven’t seen it already. A video in Chicago. ruclips.net/video/m-z_uZcB4eg/видео.html
@@vibewithmikeThat Chicago video was one of the first videos I watched and commented on.
Chicago is great! The pizza!!! Wow!
I listened to the horn on my iPhone's little speaker. I thought "Wow". Then I put my ipods on with the volume way down. Blew my mind. I then turned up the volume...man !! Reminded me of the Tom Cruise movie "War of the Worlds".
It definitely had a lot of power. Check this video out that I posted today. They are going to scrap the ship. ruclips.net/video/gOm_IEw_30M/видео.html
I have to admit, I jumped too when I heard that horn. Nice!
Right? Even in the video you can tell it has a little extra sound too! 👋⛴️👍📣
Right, sitting at home watching on the big screen. The only way to really appreciate these wonderful boats.

I usually do the time but I should to the date as well Martin. Happy Friday friend!👋⛴️👍
Feels like 104 in Iowa. Impressive decibel level for sure. I'm hoping Mr.Barker comes back soon.
104 in Iowa! I’m really hoping it cools down for everybody. I hope you have a cooler weekend my friend.👋👍⛴️
Wow! What a record 125 db! Thats nuts! Almost heard it all the way here haha! The PRT is massively impressive! Hope your ears are okay Mike! Have a great day man! 🙂🙂🙂

Spent some fun summer nights at Bayfront Park in the early 90's, dancing to the likes of Coco Taylor, Kim Wilson, and Mick Fleetwood's Blues Whale. Always loved hanging out in Duluth and down at the lift bridge. Gotta get back there again someday.

Three Dog Night, I listened from the deck of the Irwin.
@Gail-oc7ow The Irwin is a beautiful ship.
Awesome horn!!!!!
Marcus! It’s was an awesome blast man!
Awesome for sure!!!❤
Kathy, the ship impresses me every time. Just another reason to love it. The loudest now.
Huge!!! Majestic! ❤️❤️❤️

Amazing ship, great horn. It looks lovely in Daluth. We're frying in New York. Thanks for the video.
Ellen, have you been hit by the wildfire smoke in New York at all this week?👋⛴️👍
I jumped like I was shot! Great salute!!
That’s exactly what happened to me as well. I knew it was coming, but it still got me, super loud horn.👋👍⛴️
Love all the lake freighters
There are quite a few of them, but each of them are distinct and unique in their own way. It makes them really cool.
Fantastic,breathtaking. I don’t have words ! What an experience to see such a huge ship!! This is a coal ship? Where do they get the coal?
It’s such a powerful ship
I was expecting the horn but still it startled me haha
I know what you mean, even though I’ve heard these horns 1 million times, they catch you out of nowhere. I’ve been startled many times.
Barker may need to upgrade his bark. 😊 great video as always
Nice job 👍🏼
Mike, serious, thanks for taking a moment on Saturday morning to drop this comment. You could’ve easily rolled to the next video and watch something but you stopped. I really appreciate you man. Thank you.
@@vibewithmike Paul R. Tregurtha, my favorite laker, next time will check out the whole thing. Love checking out camel park when the wife and I visit Duluth, live down in the cities so not always up there, thank god for you guys filming the ships, again thanks, really enjoy them.
The PRT is a beast!!!!!
Mike,you make the Great lakes! I have to get up there. As a kid we traveled from Nebraska up thru the Twin cities and up along lake superior drive or hiway I think it was referred to. We went to Canada and to a huge lake that was Canadas largest. I have seen the lite houses and the smoke houses selling fish and cheese and at nite my brother and I would listen to some goofball DJ that played weird songs from his house that was filled and garage from California(cant remember his name) Every time I see your videos it takes me back to that!! Thanks man! We camped at some place that had a little store/museum that had a stuffed two headed calf and baby bear cub that was hit by a car on the hiway in front of the campground. Anybody remember the name of that place?? Thanks.
Troy, I read your comment twice. There’s nothing like someone leaving a comment that tells a story that I could almost put myself in that situation. I love the detail about the music and the DJ. This is such a fun to read. I hope you have an awesome weekend brother!👍👋⛴️
@@vibewithmike You to my friend! Thank you.
I havent been on the aerial lift bridge since 1972. I was 6.
I love that place.
Check this out, I just posted this a few few hours ago, a tour on 1000 foot ship ruclips.net/video/f4fZFdiTHW4/видео.htmlsi=Wom5p_Op6S1nFJJP
Back when I was growing up in Superior my friend Mike Reed and I, we swam out to the ship in Frazier shipyard sat in the bow thruster smoking cigarette and talking about things we would do once we grew up. Mike grew up to be a wheelsman on the Cort retired in 2019 ? My brother from another mother RIP Mike I miss you.
Now that is awesome! I can’t picture you right now in the thruster! People fish over in that area I see a lot too! Did you ever go to Anchor Bar or was that later. That’s such a great place. Check this wild weather ship video out from last night.

Holy crap! Almost 10k views in a day! You rock buddy 😁👍
Ralphy! How’s it going man? Anything good planned tonight? I actually rewatched your last live with Jason. Missing seeing you out there brother.
@@vibewithmike I kinda miss being out too... but Jason is a busy guy. Nothing really new on my end. Just enjoying your hobby 😁

Look how huge that cruise ship is on the Mississippi River. That’s crazy!⛴️⛴️⛴️
Impressive
that horn made me jump....lol
Bill, many times I know the horn will blast, but it still gets me to jump. Did you see the video last night of the ship in the sunset? Take a look. ruclips.net/user/liveHYWQi62uKIk?si=bCiwU6GU1gEIFdvo
Now, that’s a horn!!
Jim, I was totally shocked how loud it was. It really had me stunned but I knew it was going to register high on the decibel meter.
Fun fact. The PRT (1,013) is only 5 feet longer than the second largest ship on the lakes. And there at several at plus 1,000 feet. Including a passenger cruise ship.
The PRT is such a beast of a ship
Thats a hulk of a vessel for sure
Is that interstate bridge off the east of Rices point move, or is it high enough for the big freighters to pass under?
Bike Star, great question friend! Go to 7:49 in this video and you’ll see the bridge firsthand. Ship can go under. ruclips.net/video/jcL08yL1pns/видео.html
Impressive vessel

Good evening. That was loud even on video. We had a beautiful sunny day with a Fahrenheit of 80 plus. We had heavy rain for a few hours during the evening
A lot of people would love that rain Bob. It’s hot and dry in a lot of places.
@vibewithmike It's still warm here with a temp of 21, feels like 25. Another hot day with a temp 25 with the humidity going to feel like 30. Next week temperature will be in the low 20s and cooler. I don't like fishing in this heat anymore. When I was younger the heat didn't bother me
Yeah, that heat can make it tough for catching fish too. I prefer sunrise fishing. Cool in the morning and you still have the whole afternoon after a few hours of fishing in the morn. 🐟🐠🎣🎣🎣🎣
@vibewithmike I like fishing in afternoon and early evening. Here in Fredericton we have the Saint John River that flows into the Bay of Fundy. Every six hours the Bay of Fundy changes tidal directions. In Saint John city they have the reversing falls. In coming tide it pushing the river back up over falls into the Saint John River to Fredericton. The Bay Of Fundy has the highest tides in the world from the Atlantic Ocean. High and low tide are different each day. I have a app that has the time for high and low tide. During tide changes I don't fish ever. High tide starts time might be 2pm for six hours or 5pm same thing with low tide it can be anytime. Good night, have a great weekend
Interesting about those highest tides! Here in Minnesota I fish a lot for Northern Pikes. I use a Daredevle lure. Whatever you catch with this lure will require a net. I love it! Check it out here. www.scheels.com/p/dardevle-imp-spoon/43332-2.html
You my friend, are the Garrison Keillor of the Deluth inlet ship traffic ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Maybe the “Lift Bridge Home Companion”
Tregurtha is a good Cornish name, the small hamlet of Tregurtha, and Tregurtha (tin) Mine are not far from here, near the village of Marazion in the far South West of the UK
What app do you loose for tracking ships?
The app I use is called “MarineTraffic” and it has a blue ship for the logo. You will really enjoy it! You can research vessel names and follow ships all over the world. I hope you subscribe and come back to my channel to watch more ship videos moving forward. It’s all about having fun with the ships!👍👍👍⛴️⛴️⛴️
Did you ever measure the horn on the Ryerson? I only ask because the only time I heard that I felt like I was being pushed backwards it was so loud.
Great question Jeffrey. I’ve never been lucky enough to see the Ryerson sailing. I hope you’re having a wonderful Wednesday night my friend!⛴️⛴️⛴️
Seen her move through the locks at SSt.M about 10 years ago. So big it's hard to imagine it's man made.
My friend, you’re able to see this ship in a place that I hope to visit someday. I have to get to those locks. That ship is such a huge beast. It’s hard to describe the people how huge it is. It’s amazing it floats. I hope you subscribe (it’s free) and come back to my channel to watch more ship videos moving forward. It’s all about having fun with the ships!👍👍👍⛴️⛴️⛴️
By the way, am I a boat buddy now. I have subscribed while watching on my tablet. It's much harder to subscribe on U Tube on tv.
I’m glad you were able to watch this huge ship. I got really emotional with this live broadcast other night. Take a look. ruclips.net/user/liveZaFsAPzyeKc?si=m_s2cJ6mQFTQ6Lr8
Curious about the turnout on the north pier. Are they there because of the PRT or is that a normal amount because it is a pier?
Great question, that turnout is very typical during the summer months. A lot of people come down because they’re on vacation.
Here in Alabama it is 98 degrees with 75% humidity, what a difference !!!
Paul, we have to figure out a way for me to trade some of my winter air for some of your summer air! Let’s make a deal!👍👍👍😂😂😂👋👋👋
we`ll do!!@@vibewithmike
🥵 🥶
Imagine it on a choppy day with high wind blowing 🙂
That ship will battle through any storm I have a feeling.
