    Tim, you are 100% correct. Friends are friends that does not equate to total agreement on all subjects, that is what keeps your friendship interesting.

      @@TimBatSea I hear most of the NY cops live in a particular long island suburb though I forgot the name, but I do figure a marine biologist would be motivated to prevent oil spills, my Israel comment was partly to break up partisan coalitions, Hamas vs abortion rights but also EVs vs nuclear power. Pride vs Palestine has clashed mildly now in both Philadelphia and Toronto. Full colonial Roe applied to Puerto Rico, but not the Dominican Republic or Haiti. Caribbean abortion rights vs anti-colonialism is fascinating, as in the Falklands, and not reflected in partisanship.

    Your thoughts are the same as mine. I have been tought by my father years ago that there is three arguments that you can never win is to discuss and try to change any one's minds on the choice of politics , religion , and your choice of women. I have lived with that credo for now 81 years and it has served me well.

    You would be a fun guy to learn from and work with, Tim.
    I have a friend who owned our local Piloting company and his son is a recently retired pilot.... tho he's still licenced for our local port, so he can stand in when needed.
    I worked for an employee of theirs a number of times over the years. He operated ocean going tugs. He recently passed. I have 3 books that he had written over his lifetime career operating a tug.
    The first family I mentioned, wrote a book on the local Piloting dating back to the late 1800's.
    The one thing that is easily seen in all of you, is your personality and demeanor. Calm, cool and collected. That must be a job requirement for your occupation.

    While I don't own a boat, I observed something fairly cool with some charter cats. E.g. the Lagoon 450 we chartered had its rudders forward of the propellers. I don't know the exact philosophy behind that but it comes in handy - when you're moving forward, you usually have a good water flow over the rudders, so you can steer just fine when sailing. When you're slow, you can just steer with differential power on the engines.
    But when you're docking, that configuration comes in handy: to walk the boat to the left, you steer to the left, then do a left twist. The prop wash of the engine going backwards pushes the stern to the left, the engine going forward pushes the bow to the left. Voila - walking to the left.

    • @TimBatSea
      @TimBatSea  12 дней назад +1

      Thank you very much for watching. Yes. In a typical configuration, you have no directional control of reverse thrust other than the way you make. But flanking rudders, or rudders in front of the wheels do the exact opposite. CUOTO

    • @VeganSurf
      @VeganSurf 12 дней назад

      IMO this is a terrible design that really shows the design decisions that go into charter cats - it is done to increase sailing speed / allow a smaller rudder (in combination with saildrives which are also ridiculously overcomplex and basically impossible to repair underway / in the water) but you end up with boats that can ONLY be controlled in close quarters/docking/low speeds if both engines are working... What's the point of 2 engines for redundancy if you can only steer the boat with both of them?

    • @realulli
      @realulli 12 дней назад

      @@VeganSurf I wouldn't be so sure about the small rudder. I think it's even somewhat larger than one aft of the screws, since it needs to control the boat under way without the engines running.
      I agree with you about the issue with the sail drives but I'd need to try out the feasibility of traveling on one engine for extended distances (partly also to save fuel after having a problem (e.g. losing your mast) in the middle of an ocean and trying to reach land before you run out of fuel).
      I think I'll post that question to a few cat cruisers with that configuration... 🙂

    Thank you for describing your thinking pattern (did I say that right?) when you are maneuvering. I've never been able to put it in words. Operating LCU's in the Army many years ago we faced similar situations daily. We received very little training and due to the Army using all it's Warrant ranks for helicopter pilots, we had very few on our heavy boats. As a result, the best crew-members operated the boats regardless of rank. We had at least one PFC and several Spec4's doing the job. We went through rolls of Tums like they were candy. My stomach is screwed up to this day over 50 years later. At least you had a beautiful day. Thanks again.

    The RUclips subscriber shenanaagins is their way of pruning dormant subscriptions..
    As I understand it, channels rating is improved by subscriber numbers. If those numbers are out of date with people that use to be interested in a channel, RUclips are "losing out".
    By pruning subscribers, those that are still interested (therefore bona fide subscribers) can resubscribe, those that are no longer interested just let it pass.
    Thats the benevolent version.
    The malevolent version is them trying to reduce their payments to you.

    Another great video Tim, It's nice to hear you talking about some other things, the little side track that was most interesting. We folks over in England will certainly be following events in the US later this year. I was thinking, let's say your boss phones you up. ''Hi Tim, how are you doing, your brand new tug boat arrives in a few days and we sold the one you are on now to a buyer in Amsterdam. We said we would get it to him so we'd like you to top up with diesel and sail across the Atlantic.'' Would that be feasible in a tug boat that size or would it be too risky?

    I always enjoy your channel Tim. I am familiar about the subscription issue lately. I think RUclips is unsubscribing people after one year and if the subscribers think they are subscribed continuously then they wont notice that. It has happened to me a few times. Kinda frustrating that RUclips is policing an annual subscription. At least that is what happened to me. I guess they are not notifying subscribers that their subscription is not continouss.

Never once did that interfere with the party. Not ever. The only hippie I ever got lippy with hadn't showered in about 3 weeks and in celebration, he was waving his shirt in a huge circle. This brought his shirt and his stench within an inch of my nose. The 4 people I was with and I convinced him to move along. I think we gave him a joint as a consolation prize.

    Dealing with different politics just comes down to wisdom and experience. It was never an issue with my friends who are now in their 50s and up but, it seems some younger folks think you can't be friends with somebody who's politics you disagree with.
    Personally, I respect the opinions of others and they are entitled to live their lives however they want. We don't have to agree but, I ask the same respect in return.
    It's really interesting when some of your friends are bikers (1%er type) and other friends are cops. But, somehow all of that wasn't an issue over the years. Wisdom and experience.
