This tugboat is Escambia County’s newest artificial reef and expected to be a popular offshore fishing and diving destination. FWC provided funded the cleaning, preparation, towing and deployment costs for the project as well as provided expertise on location and methods of deployment.
I Captained this vessel for 6 years, she was a beauty, sad to see her go, I hope to get to dive the site someday....
She was part of Inland River Transportation Corp IRTC / General Marine Inc GMI, Correct? Robert Lashay old company??
Check out the rainbow appearing in the spray at 0.44-0.52.
looks like it hit bottom before the bow went under
*me and the boys going in and raising it after everyone leaves* laughs in michigan
"Down goes Frazier!"
awesome ! 😎😎
Crazy scary
I wonder what TUG The port of Pensacola is using now to do the docking for the very very few ships the port gets. The Port of Pensacola could have been bigger than Mobile.
But there have always been certain powers that be in Pensacola that didn’t want it to grow. They didn’t want good paying blue collar jobs because they felt it brings dirty type companies.
They would rather have condominiums and cheap as paying jobs at work in restaurants and hotels. Anything to do with tourism flat out sucks because it produces nothing but low paying jobs.
incomplete story as usual with a lot of them.. why noet showing how the boat is positioned under water?
RIP to all those who were lost!🙏🙏🙏😢😢

@@calvinw8470 it’s a controlled sink, it was done on purpose, it was sank to make an artificial reef, it’s been abandoned for 3 years. Idiot

She was part of Inland River Transportation Corp IRTC / General Marine Inc GMI, Correct? Robert Lashay old company?? I believe she was. They also owned these Deep Sea Tugs.
OCEAN STAR OCEAN VOYAGER / OCEAN SUN If it’s a tug that I’m thinking of her and the company that I know I should say I knew it pretty well at one time many years ago in Pensacola.
It was a good company and I really hated to see what happened to it. Although, I’m sure a lot of what I’ve heard was either made up or flat out lies
