- This one was pretty far from shore which makes the audio faint and the video was short due to rain. Kinda cool how they keep underway while taking on stores. The boat, one of ACBL’s largest boats on the Lower Mississippi, is a triple-screw towboat built in 1977 by the Nashville Bridge Company, and originally called the Miss Kae D. It was rebuilt in 2010. It is 195 feet by 54 feet and runs on three EMD 16-710G7C main engines providing a total of 11,100 hp. The boat has three 120-inch Sound SS five-blade propellers. Ship’s service power comes from two John Deere 6135 250 kw. gen sets
The ol" Miss Kae-D...rode this one as a kid in the late 70's early 80"s...my dad was the pilot on there back then.
Never saw this before.👍

Nice clean looking boat. And powerful !
big river keep rolling, up at the soo locks they take on stores in the channel, and detriot the usps delivers mail under way
oh snap, one of those big ol' triple screw jobs. These used to be the kings of the river basically, i wonder if they still are.
Yep; they still are.
Gotta have them vittles , 👍💯👍
What speed are they actually making here?
If you were on shore you could keep pace walking along the river walk with this northbound. So he was about 3 to 4 mph. Southbound is about 7 to 10 mph
Why did that small boat appear next to the pushboat?
Dropping off supplies and sometimes mail.
Great job. How’s water level in the Mississippi this year?
Currently no low water restrictions and the Ohio river was flooding so south of Cairo the river is big.
@@BowzerTowboats Good news👍
Tow boats with large amounts of tonnage are cool, but they are also super creepy in a way.
Where you at bowzer
