    'Get her up on plane, ready to go'. Is that a tug captain's version of a Dad Joke? Very droll.😁
  • @andrewtschramm
    Thanks for narrating things like “port ahead, starboard astern, right rudder”! Very helpful to learn about this.
  • @SamWhitlock
    There is something so satisfying watching folks like yourself doing such critical jobs, where screwing up is expensive and dangerous, with such precision! So glad you're uploading here!
  • @rickbullock4331
    It’s almost as if you know what you’re doing. You guys make it look easy. 👍👍🇨🇦
  • Tim ... "cool down for a bit!" LOL Excellent demonstration of the maneuvering needed to complete this job successfully! Stay safe. CUOTO

    Give the chief a chest cam, so we can see what's happening shipside. It'll give you more editing work but would be a great enhancement.
  • I laughed at that too "get her up on plane" lol. I love watching your videos. I worked on a Navy tug in the '80s. So different.
  • @bettygilmore611
    You are in a wonderful place. So close to so much. NY and NJ. Love it.
  • Many thanks Captain Tim for an interesting vlog. Enjoy listening to your explanation of what you're doing as you proceed. Have a wonderful time with your Dad. Blessings. Sherry 🥰 🙏 ⚓
  • Grew up on the Chesapeake Bay between the Great Wicomica River and Smith Point.My father was a waterman (crabs& oysters)Enjoy watching your videos. Use to see the tugs and barges going up down the bay. My uncle was a menhaden boat captain. Went with him from Reedville Va up thru the East River into the sound to Groton

    Thanks for lining us up with the mast on the bow, makes it so easy to track your heading and turn rates.
