Beautiful day. You certainly didn’t let it go to waste. Fantastic piece.
Very sing-songsy announcer on this day! Love it.
LOL, Nice!
👍
She does look pretty good for an ASC boat, she'll probably get painted when she has her 5 year. But nice to see the silver and red bands on her stacks. Thanks for the vid, Paul!
Right on, either that or the lighting made her look good! In reality, she does look well kept.
I get a kick out of people who complain about the paint jobs on these lakers. These are "Working" vessels. For one thing, they never sit around long enough to get painted. For another, the loss of revenue, if they were to sit still for a paint job, would far outweigh the benefit of looking pretty. Oh, yeah! Add the cost of the gallons of paint needed to paint a laker, and the pencil pushers, up at corporate, would be having hissy fits. Besides, she's beautiful just as she is!
Valid point, keep in mind the paint does protect the steel, keeps its life longer.
Was that her horn at the end? A distant sound...
ASC and paint?
Yeah, that's not a good combo 😂
Wondering how much traffic builds up while bridge is up ?
Thanks for posting brother
A lot, I'll try to sneak a video of that into one of the videos, during the summer tourist months the traffic on the Point is backed up for at least a mile on a 20 minute lift. Not as bad early morning or late at night.
Well sure it is, it's made from the finest materials in the entire Galactic Empire
lol, I expected no less from you!
Their fleet is starting to look so bad I'm beginning to think ASC stands for Almost Seems Canadian. 😁😂 🍁🍁🍁
Ouch, catchy though. 😁
Yeah, Algoma ran those older boats on a death march to the scrap yard
They don't waste money on paint
I believe no paint is low maintenance, which leads to other issues. Aside from aesthetics, it is a useful cost.
