    On this video, I ill take you for a ride into Hamilton Harbour that is located on the West end of Lake Ontario.
    It was a good day to have a look around as there were plenty of ships to see here in Hamilton.
    Join me as I take to the waters on the Sea Doo and take you all for a closer look at these great vessels, two of the Salty Vessels were unloading what looked to be like Steel Rolls.

    I live in Buffalo and every time I cross the bridge on the QEW, I look and wonder of what Buffalo must have been like during its age of shipping. Gone are the big industries like Bethlehem Steel, Republic steel and all those grain elevators that are empty. Thankful for General Mills and ADM still operating. A comment below about not swimming and drinking the water was a definite problem here back then.
    Great video to share. Thanks.

      I have visions in my head of Buffalo being similar to that of Liverpool and Manchester back in the 60's before shipping stopped going up the Manchester Ship Canal.
      A lot of the old buildings in Buffalo remind me of both cities in it's current look

    At 7:02. HMCS Haida. Some of you will remember the Haida was docked inside Ontario Place in Toronto for decades. You could takes tours of the ship back then. My friend's brother was stationed to a sister ship of the Haida during WWII.

      On the lake around 22-25km/h (14-16mph) from what I've witnessed on Lake Erie and speeds on Marine Traffic.
      Though I think the overall top speed is 15/16 knots about 30kmh

    Great video,my shop is right next to the Fed Nav dock where the Barnacle was docked. This is an offloading dock where the mostly imported steel comes in. Its the steel that hurts Canada steel, mostly from Asia. I have lots of content of this dock and Ontario shipyards but it is nice to see your quality content from the water.

    Steel "coils". Used to make innumerable number of different products. If a steel product is not cast or forged(or extruded maybe?), it started life in a steel coil and was stamped or roll formed, or some other process I'm not familiar with. And yes there are things like thick plate, beams or rail that might fit into that category.
    Nice video. Lots of interesting ships. Busy harbor.

    Hamiltonian here, nice to see the harbour from your point of view though the ships do look banged up. Warning! Do not drink or swim in the water.

    Federal series of ships at 8:12. One day in Hamilton there were three Federal ships from the same Montreal company.

    • @NigelHay

      I've seen several Federal Ships anchored in the Harbour before, I think it was towards the end of the season before they all head out to the St Lawrence and Atlantic for the winter

      HMCS Haida. Took part in more sinkings than 99% of all ships on both sides during WW2.
