It's great to see you calmly giving him hints what to do, and especially giving him PRAISE , that goes a LONG way. Right on Tim !!!!!!!
Thank you very much for watching.. CUOTO
I love nautical things. Mostly sailing, but this is the first time I've seen anything like this. I am enjoying this
Thank you for watching and welcome to the channel Tim. CUOTO
I must say you are a great trainer. I just got released from training at my job and my first trainer was flat out awful but my last 2 were amazing. You eagerness to teach and show him how it is done the right way will go a long way with him when he is on his own.
Thank you for watching Scott. I appreciate your kind words. CUOTO
Azipod is a trademark for all kind of diesel electirc rudder propulsion ( SteerProp and general Azimuth propulsion ). It is a very responsive and powerful system. And yes, like Tim said, forget everything about traditional propeller / rudder sytems if you want to learn about Azipods. This summer, I am a skipper of a small 50 meters car ferry with two SteerProp units powered by four diesel electric generators and it is a comfortable ride. As long as there is no black outs... :)
😂😂😂 💯! Thank you very much for watching. CUOTO
As a guy that has been in the industry for almost 5 years, primarily doing shipdocking as a deckhand hawspiping, these videos are so helpful for mentally preparing (along side reading and talking with shipmates), about the intricacies of barge work. Thanks Tim.
That's fantastic! Thank you for watching and we all wish you the best of luck coming up through the Hawspipe. CUOTO
Explaining your training and communication style is so important. Sign of a good instructor.
Thank you very much. I appreciate that. CUOTO
Brother, you’re such a good teacher…you could probably have me doing that in three weeks…what’s up…let’s do it.😂
Thank you very much Sput. I'll teach you tugboating, you teach me how to fly a helo. CUOTO
Jack did a great job on the radio and boat handling. Smooth and calm and clear with his directions. Perfect weather for training since it isn't blowing 40 and thunderstorms like you have been dealing with lately. Tug and barge crew safety 1st. Camera control 3rd! We are so lucky to have your video to learn from. Stay safe Captain Tim and crew!!!
Thank you very much for watching Dean. I appreciate your kind words. CUOTO
Excellent job by Jack, he’s going to be great captain in no time. Tim, your teaching and guidance were stellar. Your expertise, knowledge of the industry & calmness in showing Jack was refreshing.
Thank you very much for watching Jim. I appreciate your kind words. CUOTO
Lots of action in this one! Great job, everyone.
Thank you very much for watching Al. CUOTO
Tim ... "some times the hardest part of this job is being patient". That observation can be applied to so many things in life but is definitely applicable in your vessel handling skill set. Excellent video as expected! Stay safe. CUOTO
Thank you for watching George. CUOTO
Aft deck lookin good, you guys just get a paint job, Tim? As always, buddy, thanks for what you're doing here! We love you for it, and all your guys on deck and the engine room that help make you look good! #CUOTO
Where have you been Casey? She's been in the yard for three hitches. 😂 Thank you very much for watching and noticing how good she looks. CUOTO
First: That was smartly done Jack, you are doing a fine job. Believe in your abilities. Second: eventhough I'm a retired throttle jockey on tugs, I would still enjoy being under your tutelage, Tim. COUTO.😊
Thank you very much for watching Jeffrey. CUOTO
See for me that was the fun part... the rigging and your explanations i really apricate all the details on how and why its done.. Love the sea...
Thank you for watching Paul. CUOTO
Nicely done as always! Those tractor tugs sure are impressive! Both Brats at Sea are in Castine… and now that the cat’s out of the bag, Big Sis is in charge of Toosh, Jr.’s basic training!! She’s the Company Officer in Charge of the “Midshipmen Under Guidance” or MUGs. 😂
Anyways, hope all is well with all the changes. #CUOTO and the Chief on Two!!!
😂😂😂😂 Thank you very much for Supporting the channels Ian! CUOTO
Years ago while still a deckhand I asked the captain how to transit a particular bridge with barge alongside. His answer? Just steer through the bridge opening. Saying it in another way, do what you have to do to do the job. Good deckhands make good captain/mates.
Thank you very much for watching Fred. CUOTO
Hey tim new to your videos but really enjoying them. I’m a 2nd mate on general cargo ships over here in Europe. Really enjoying a deep educational dive into other aspects of the maritime industry. Keep up the good work and safe sailings
Thank you very much Brian. I really appreciate that. CUOTO
Safe and sound on the way! Good job Jack and Tim!
Thank you very much for watching Fred. CUOTO
You guys ,, the job is so nice and adventurous.😊
Thank you very much for watching all these years. CUOTO
Jack is cute. Lol.
I am new to this channel. You are an awesome trainer. I love how you explain things and you and show us how and what happens. Love it!
Thank you very much for watching Sarah. Jack's a good guy and going to be an outstanding boatman. CUOTO
excellent video Tim and good job Jack
Thank you very much for watching James. CUOTO
Good job Tim, enjoyed that👍🏼
Thank you very much for watching. CUOTO
I think I saw you in Narragansett Bay on 8.2.24. Great content Thank you!
Wasn't me. But thank you very much for watching. CUOTO
NEW HAVEN!!! My Home Harbor! Awesome that you're back in town. You gotta DoorDash in some excellent New Haven Pizza next time you're there. Bar, Modern, Pepe's, Sally's, Tolli's in East Haven, and many more, best pizza in the US.
Thank you for watching and welcome to the channel. CUOTO
Thanks, Tim. Jack did a great job. 👍
I'm working my way forward from the first video - nearly there!
Doing the same thing on SVP.
Loving it!
Outstanding! Thank you very much! I appreciate that. CUOTO
Thanks!
Woohoo!!!!! Thank you very very very much! Cheers! 🍻 CUOTO
Hard enough skippering for the first (dozen) times, with the "old man" giving you hints and pointing out your errors, but Tim has to go record the situation for millions and billions of people to watch! Poor Jack!
😂😂😂😂 Thank you very much for watching Tom. I make sure he is ok with it first. CUOTO
"On the other side of that buoy is like 2 feet of water."
That's exactly why the old Mississippi River Pilot always followed his Dad's advice who said "The buoys don't mark the start of safe water. They mark the start of danger. Stay the hell away!!"
Great video!
Thank you very much for watching and welcome to the channel. CUOTO
very interesting. A tour of the engine room would be cool.
Thank you for watching and welcome to the channel. I believe I have no less than three engine room videos here on the channel. CUOTO
Ahh, at 5:43, a Logitech M570 mouse. Been using them for 20 years, IMHO they're the best mice there is!
Tim, I always look forward to your videos, great job man, cheers.
Geoff
Thank you very much for watching Geoff. CUOTO
Tim I would suggest trying to get in touch with RUclipsr @tugboat Willy. He’s captain of the tug Brian McCallaster. If you want to see a tractor tug in operation.
Thank you very much for watching. I have reached out to him a few times, but for whatever reasons, he seems to not be interested. CUOTO
Tim
You and Jack did a vantastic job. You are deffinetly a great and patient teacher. The world needs more like you to pass the knowledge and wisdom to the young.
Thank you very much for watching and for the kind words Devon. CUOTO
Tim
You are welcome. I would love to be a student of yours. I would work on your boat anytime.
Its amazing how some people do not realise the accuracy of technical terms such as "woo woo".
😂😂😂😂 💯! Thank you very much for watching. CUOTO
You’re a good teacher
😂😂😂 Thank you very much for watching. CUOTO
Tractor tugs are amazing. I retired as engineer off of them. Started out with a conventional tug and worked my way up as the company updated things.
Thank you very much for watching Steve. Enjoy your time on the beach! CUOTO
Love the channel! Idk if you do the run into Providence often, but I'm a live-aboard at the marina directly on your port just before you enter the Providence river @ the wind turbines. I've probably been on one of the jetskis hopping your wake lol
Thank you for watching and welcome to the channel. We were enroute that day to PVD. Infact we should be back there on Wednesday. CUOTO
Great job, it’s always fun to teach someone who is not only capable but who actually wants to learn… good work.
Thank you very much for watching Wayne. CUOTO
Great video Tim 73
Thank you very much for watching Bill. CUOTO
Very new to the channel thanks l really enjoyed what you showed us regards Doc from Down Under in Australia
Thank you very much for watching and welcome to the channel Doc! CUOTO
That was great, cap'n Jack!
Thank you very much for watching. CUOTO
In 1987 I sailed from Block island through the race on a 31’ sailboat to run down the CT coast , I remember those swells rolling through.
Thank you very much for watching and welcome to the channel. CUOTO
Love your videos Tim 👍
Thank you very much for watching Woody. CUOTO
You must be happy you've got your boat back I know you've had it for awhile the videos are not real time. The winch shack is on the port side pretty easy to tell if you have a 4200 or not 😉The azimuth drives on those tractor tugs are expensive, I used to work for a ferry fleet, some of the mid size double ender ro/ro use "POD" drive. One of the ships I worked with she is 308 feet long beam of 58 her draught 34 feet to the bottom of the wheel. She is a heavy pig, It was ice class rated. The new captains that were familiarized on her had troubles, she did not move easily, delayed reaction time was quite a bit. The drive repairs were on going she'd have one of 4 of her right angle drives changed out at least once a year. The technology of right angle drives probably have improved, they were known for not to fair well for long distances. I've seem some new coastal class tugs being built with pod drive, conventional shaft is still the commonly used propulsion system.
Thank you very much for watching. Agreed on all. CUOTO
One of your best videos! And good for Jack for taking a step up. Good luck with the new deck crew. If they come through the first 90 days alive, they'll probably make AB in no time.
Thank you very much for watching Ralph. CUOTO
LOL, different industry here but, yup, I may annoy my trainees reminding them of what they already should know. They remind me, but I say just testing all cool. Remember, Jack as a senior trainee, to do the same going forward when one day you are the trainer. Because 4 eyes are better than two at all times. We watch over each other so we stay out of trouble and things go well.
Thank you very much for watching James. CUOTO
Nice moves 👌
I got myself on a tug also. Bit bigger though, 10,000gt anchor handler 😅 not much flippin round to get on the wire for us.
You're an excellent mentor 👍
Thank you very much for watching and welcome to the channel. CUOTO
You're a good teacher, Awesome! Maybe in the future we can actually see you move some ships. So far I've seen you line up on a couple and ready for the tow but no movement 🤔
Thank you for watching. We very rarely assist ships. We mostly bunker ships and move products from terminal to terminal. CUOTO
Excellent video Tim. They are all great but this was exceptional. You’re a great teacher. The crew is lucky to have you.
Thank you very much for watching and I appreciate your kind words. CUOTO
Great work Jack!! All the Best to you Capt!!
Thank you very much Danny. CUOTO
Fantastic to see young people getting into real work!!
💯 Thank you very much for watching. CUOTO
Good job by all . Thanks Tim
Thank you for watching William. CUOTO
Man, those electric throttles are quiet. Nothing like air throttles! I miss ny and northeast close quarters tug boating.
Thank you for watching. It took a while to get used to not hearing the air dump, but I have learned to love them. CUOTO
Well done, you guys, so many things going on all at once !!
Thank you very much for watching all these years. CUOTO
Tim. This is the best instructional video in some time. Great video. See you next time Capt.
Thank you very much David? I appreciate that. CUOTO
Great job on training and teaching You Guys are the best
Thank you very much Gary. CUOTO
Great job, and good teacher, plus student. Be safe, God bless
Thank you very very much Elizabeth. CUOTO
Enjoyed this vid. You’re a good teacher. As always I learned a few things today. 😊
That's fantastic! Thank you very much for watching. CUOTO
awesome stuff. I am going to Patreon . Never sub'd to anything there but your channel is worth it
Thank you very very very much Rob! Please be aware that I have been having trouble DMing people on Patreon. So if you don't get a private note welcoming you, know it's a technical thing we are working on. Welcome aboard and thank you very very much. CUOTO
@@TimBatSea no worries there my friend. I subscribed because I love what you are doing with the content. just keep doing what you are doing. If I'm super lucky I'll get to work on a tug with you as captain one day.
Great job. All good both training each other
Thank you very much for watching. CUOTO
Hope to see more of Jack. He seems like a great dude all around! Thanks for the great vid tim
Woohoo!!! Thank you very very very much! Cheers 🍻 CUOTO
Erm, that was quite intensive....Thank you Tim and Jack
Thank you very much for watching and welcome to the channel Ken. CUOTO
I like Tractor Tugs as much as the next guy, but time and time again i am amazed at how agile the tugs are that you run, Cap.
They seem to handle pretty darn good! Especially given there size and weight.
Love the content, Cap, CYOTO!
Thank you very much for watching and for the kind words Ed. CUOTO
Nice job Jack, and you too Tim!!!
Thank you very much for watching Milan. CUOTO
Perhaps lash the 'chafing gear' to the cleat? What a PITA...
Thank you very much for watching and welcome to the channel. CUOTO
Nice Job AB! Not being a seafarer, it would be interesting to hear what goes on to get every crew gets paid like that tug that helped to get you away from the dock. I'm sure there is a business office somewhere.
Thank you for watching Donald. Yes. You are correct. The home office handles all the billing and accounts payable. CUOTO
Good morning to you and Jack.
Excellent video!
Thank you very much for watching John. Good morning to you as well
CUOTO
Hey Tim, I found the most difficult job when training someone is trying to stop my hands grabbing the wheel, so I kept them in my pocket or arms folded. Then I'd get riddled for looking like a bossy housewife standing on the doorstep yelling at people.
The thing about asking people what there doing, is to take the "I assume" bit away.
I just glad you take us along and juggle camera work with the real job. Stay safe out there and thanks.
Thank you very much for watching! It is very hard to stand back and let someone fail (slightly) but give them the opportunity to dig themselves out. CUOTO
Everyone is safe & the changeover is complete. Good job, even if it was not pretty. Thank you for another Great video. CUOTO
Thank you for watching Steven. CUOTO
On the wire? Is that a mooring line? Thanks for your work, just found your channel. I grew up in Westchester and fished from City Island to New Haven all the time. Brings back memories of my youth. Never knew how much industry was done from the waters .
Oh , you are bringing it somewhere else?
Thank you for watching and welcome to the channel. Yes. On the wire means instead of pushing the barge, we tow it, and it will be towed on a long heavy wire. CUOTO
I still like the round forward house on the older style tugs. Function is more important at the end of the day though. The nicest looking tug my dad ran was the Earnest M. An old Mc Callister boat the dredge co. bought. The Taurus from Packer Marine was a nice small tug he ran to supply Nantucket and Marthas Vineyard.
Thank you for watching Bob. CUOTO
I can attest to this, I spent over 9 years on conventional tugs, and recently made the switch to ASD tugs. Believe me, it's more than a challenge. They say the hardest guys to teach z-drive or tractors are experienced conventional tug boaters.
I am sure! Thank you very much for watching. CUOTO
That was a great video TIm, I'm certainly one of those that was questioning about how you were made up...this covered everything...awesome
Thank you for watching! Glad you liked it. CUOTO
good job by all next time wait until you get to new haven to order pizza good to see you back in new haven by the way i live in west haven
Thank you very much for watching Wayne. New Haven does have my favorite pizza. CUOTO
That was a good video. You kept fighting in pretty ideal conditions.
Thank you very much for watching. CUOTO
i subscribed.. This is an awesome video!
Thank you very much for watching and a big Thank You for subscribing! CUOTO
I realize your motivation is to demonstrate ship and barge handling challenges and techniques, but sometimes your videos are wonderful travelogues. I was very excited when you mentioned voyaging to Providence. (My former in-laws lived these.) I look forward to seeing a transit of Narragansett Bay sometime. Just as I was pleased to see shots of Cape Cod Canal, Mystic River (I grew up in Charlestown) and the Hudson in prior videos. As I landlubber, I appreciate seeing familiar sights from the waterside. Keep up the work.
Thank you for watching Jim. CUOTO
good pizzia in old new haven!!!
The best! But hard to get off the tug and through the gate there. Thank you for watching. CUOTO
Fantastic work Captain! 👍🏽
Thank you very much for watching Matt. CUOTO
All is good But my heart skiped a beat when the new guy starddled the wire 😮😮
I think we all did. Thank you very much for watching. CUOTO
Another great video Tim! CUOTO!
Thank you for watching Ronnie. CUOTO
@@TimBatSea always!
Gee, that was fun!
Thanks!
Thank you very much for watching. CUOTO
Great Video, looks like the work of very professionals. CUOTO..
Thank you for watching James. CUOTO
Watching you in the dog house, I was thinking, "Why doesn't he ever take off the parking brake" :-)
😂😂😂 Thank you very much for watching. CUOTO
Great job.
Thank you for watching Walter. CUOTO
The usharbors site has charts very similar to what your plotter shows.. And yes... there is only 2 ft of water on the east side of that nun. I do like to follow your adventures Tim..
Outstanding. Welcome aboard. CUOTO
43:55 that still *looks* sketchy to me but i auppose it's a matter of perspective. These operatorations are so fascinating though!
Thank you very much for watching and welcome to the channel. CUOTO
Well done boys
💯!! Thank you very much for watching. CUOTO
This was the best move I've seen on your channel since we started to be fans. Take care here. Now let's chesl S/C Paquita. CUOTO.
Thank you very much for watching! SVP is back in the water. New video just released. CUOTO
Well, it sure makes perfect sense that a man who knows the deck & all the in's/out's of how that works would be almost a
prerequisite for moving into the wheelhouse although I'm sure there are exceptions to any rule. Everybody has to have as
much knowledge of everyone else's responsibility in an environment like this. Ohh, thanks for showing us the notch where
the barge comes into contact, I'd never known how you connected not about the long strands connect to the winch. peace
Thank you very much for watching and welcome to the channel. CUOTO
Great video as always
Thank you very much for watching Alain. CUOTO
Thx for another interesting/informative vid.
Thank you very much for watching. CUOTO
I've been waiting for a vid showing you dropping and making up. Very entertaining. Any thoughts about the tug that got whacked and flipped in the Houston ship channel? Definitely a lower draft boat. "We're off like a dirty shirt". Classic.
Thank you very much for watching Bob. My thoughts and prayers are for all involved, live or dead. I really only know what I have seen on Dr Sal's channel, so it's really not right for me to comment. CUOTO
Killer video, Sir! Looking forward to learning to drive that baby myself, however with only a 25T license it’s gonna be a long road! Either way, it’s always a great feeling to be out on the water and under way! See ya!
Thank you very much for watching Shane. If I can do it, I am sure you can too. CUOTO
@@TimBatSea Thank you, Tim!
Great job guys. If it was an exact route or path it would be a railroad
Right? Thank you very much for watching Jim. CUOTO
Interesting stuff. I've worked on tugs when they were at shipyards but I've never seen a first person view like this. Very cool videos.
One thing I notice is that I never see any push tugs in your videos, are they less common in that area? Being for South Louisiana all I see is pushers, rarely see a traditional tugboat where I'm at.
It'd be interesting to hear about the different types of tugs/pushers and there pros/cons/differences.
Thank you very much for watching. In general, pushboats are used in inland waters (rivers) because they do a great job pushing but don't handle an offshore swell very well. So boats in exposed harbors and coastwise trade are usually traditional or "model bow" tugs. CUOTO
Great video Tim, l'm a bit new to your channel and rather than bombard you with questions l preferred to take a look at your video library which is impressive l must say .
Thank you for watching and welcome to the channel. I wish all my new viewers were as considerate as you. CUOTO
I've just started watching your videos. Great content and I like how you explain everything. I can imagine it gets quite stressful at times.
Can you explain the pros and cons of push/pull and being on the wire.
Do you change to wire for the longer trips, or are there other reasons.
If I had watched this video a bit longer before asking my question, I would have got the answer lol.
Thank you very much for watching and welcome to the channel. We have more control of the barge in push gear. But push gear has it's limitations. We can't push in much more than a foot or two of swell without tearing things up. CUOTO
Ah ha! that notch explains a LOT! I can see how having AB on training allows you to show parts you cannot show on your own.
There you go. Thank you very much for watching. CUOTO
Making him nervous Cap😂
No. Not Jack. He's as cool as a cucumber. Thank you for watching. CUOTO
Two trips to Providence in a week? Wow!
😂😂😂 Thank you very much for watching. And soon we will be on our way to Albany. CUOTO
