Is she and the Roger blough still around layed up? What about the Phillip r Clarke?

Yes on the first two, and no re the Clarke. She's back sailing after a late start to the season.

Far too many shippers are opting for "cheaper" overseas shipbuilding. As a result too many US shipyards have closed, and those skills have been lost. It is so heartwarming to see one of our own building a laker again. Thank you for sharing this video with us.

I thought that this example of photography and video just excellent! The whole production was amazing. I love these boats and so enjoyed seeing them in winter layup. Also I’m not sure who hates KZbin music, but yours was beautiful and appropriate. Thank you for a terrific production!❤

Great EXCEPT for the music. Pls…NO MUSIC. This isn’t a feature film and polls on YT music attached to a good video all reveal it’s hated.

Why is music hated when it can be turned down and not heard?

Why do you complain about this genuine production of the Great Lakes fleet offered to you free of charge though the artist has put many hours of time and labor into it? Time and labor that can never be regained?

if your smart enough to click on the video you should be able to figure out how to turn the volume off if your not a fan of the FREE music that went with the great video.

Great video of this ship construction in Sturgeon Bay. This is a smaller ship at under 650 feet long. Put this next to an oceangoing bulk carrier taking iron ore from Port Hedland, Western Australia taking ore to India or China it looks very small. Those huge ocean going ore carriers are over 1,200 feet long, over 200 feet wide and draw near or over 60 feet of water. They can carry at least 5 to 8 times the amounts of iron ore than this new ship. Port Headland has ships coming in drawing near and over 60 feet of draft. They have to wait for high tide to allow these deep draft vessels into Port Headland.

Another freighter for the scrap yard. As a Little kid growing up on the shore of Lake Superior, I remember freighters sailing up and down the lake one after another. It was exciting to see them go by. Those days are long gone.

God bless the birth of a new laker. Much of the great lakes fleet is quite aged, even though still beautiful. These hard working vessels and crews seem to survive bounties and hardships for decade after decade keeping commerce going to benefit us all. Absolutely great video of a ship sure to become popular with ship watchers. So well done, thanks.

It's a shame knowing what would eventually happen with the Thompson. Hopefully a new barge can be found for the Laura, the Laura and Thompson were quite busy hauling ore the past few seasons.

Excellent work. Thank you. I'm still trying to understand, though, how these heavy-lift ships counterbalance such massive weights as they swing them out over the side. I suppose it must have to do with shifting ballast within the vessel???
@GaryCihlarPhotography Жыл бұрын
They must calculate the ballast for the lift, plus they are tethered to the dock.
