Edwin H. Gott - The Strongest Laker Flexes Her Muscles

I have been wishing for this view at Two Harbors. You even caught a train in the background. Absolutely loved it!❤

[@1Long2Short]

Thanks! Glad to hear some like the Two Harbors footage. With any luck I’ll return there again before the season is over. 🙂

[@SkeeterA]

@1Long2Short That would be great. I watch the people walk out there and wonder what the view from there is, and thanks to you now, I know. Plus the train was a bonus .

[@BL-jt3qt]

A beautiful day for Ship Watching! I'm still always amazed at the seeming ease of the maneuverability of these huge vessels. An interesting addition of the Clean-up boat and it's purpose. These monsters do look better with a fresh coat of paint. Great catch and info as always - thank you.

[@1Long2Short]

This is the first time I’ve ever seen the clean-up boat, so I was happy to see it in action!

[@robertbate5790]

What an informative video. By sight and description. Thank you 👍👍👍👍 You also captured an iron ore train on the hillside above the dock, passing the stern as she pulls away. 🇬🇧

[@cris_261]

I noticed that too. Lots of "Easter eggs" in this video!

[@1Long2Short]

Thank you! Yes, I meant to mention the train in my video description, but overlooked it. A lot was happening in this departure! 🙂

[@danielmorris3687]

I watch the Two Harbors live cam a lot and it always amazes me to watch a footer pivot to dock there. Appreciate you capuring these videos up there. 👍✌️🇨🇦

[@1Long2Short]

Glad you like the Two Harbors footage. I try to capture ships there when I make trips to Duluth, but the timing often doesn’t work out.

[@ricdale7813]

As a long time fan of Great Lakes freighters and vessels in general I find these last couple years highly exciting. With the introductions of many more Modern design vessels and modern technology arriving its a Wonderful Time and Age for Sail.

[@adriaanboogaard8571]

Fantastic video. I especially like the part with the Railway in the background.

[@1Long2Short]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@henryhawk978]

Very nice. Beautiful scenery and the shot of the loading docks. Two Harbors is beautiful scenery . Enjoyed the video and BE SAFE OUT THERE!

[@1Long2Short]

Yes, the harbor there is quite scenic… one of the few places on the lakes where the public can watch a ship dock right in front of them.

[@bradleyjanes2949]

Great video thanks

[@theolewell7535]

wonderful channel. these lake ships are so impressive ...

[@alaricdogface]

Beautiful video, including the dock shower! One small note, the description states that the Gott is departing Duluth. I hope you caught them in Duluth yesterday (or the day before I'm not sure).

[@1Long2Short]

Thanks for catching that mistake. I just fixed it. I didn’t catch the Gott in Duluth, but I did catch 25 ship passages last week on Sunday, Monday, and Tuesday. Now the fun of editing that begins. 😆 Wish I could have caught the Leitch today.

[@alaricdogface]

@@1Long2Short for once it wasn't me making the error! 🤣 Have fun editing, I didn't catch the Leitch either. 🤬

[@1Long2Short]

At least I didn’t put the error in the video itself. It’s only a matter of time before that happens! 🤣

[@alaricdogface]

@@1Long2Short I have misspelled a boat's name in the title of the video and put the wrong date at the end of the video. Why does the year keep changing? 🤷‍♂️🤣

[@railroadingrambler218]

Terrific videography!

[@1Long2Short]

Thank you! 😊

[@cris_261]

I like how the Gott's new paint even makes the dock stand out. And that's a biiiiiigggg boat!

[@1Long2Short]

When one gets that full-on side view, her true length is pretty impressive! 😮

[@graffzepplin9511]

The Gott is my favorite.

[@gregmctevia5087]

Lovely.

[@waynesell3681]

Mighty fine ship

[@TOTALCAMARO]

She makes those train ore cars look small as they’re going down the tracks. She looks sharp all painted up.

[@realityjunky]

She must feel solid as a rock out there. Probably cruises like a dream..

[@ddawg3230]

Felt peak sibling energy from the guy trying to block the other guy's camera lol

[@1Long2Short]

I was waiting for someone to notice that! 😆

[@carljones3515]

👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

[@voxfan7403]

Why does she have three radar antennae?

[@1Long2Short]

Most have at least two, for long range and short range. Perhaps the third is a backup, but I'm only guessing!

[@robertwarsinski345]

What is she have in order for her manifest

[@1Long2Short]

See the video description for details. 🙂

[@tylermcintyre1454]

Tyler Mac yeah Miami marlins tanker ship colors

[@treeandaturd]

that’s like the supreme insult. you leave and then they disinfect the area where you were.

[@1Long2Short]

Ever stay in a hotel? 😁

[@edwardhugus2772]

It's from 1 long 2 short....... It's "Gott" to be good!

[@1Long2Short]

Thank you! ☺️

[@blauer2551]

Turn and burn

[@mattharper588]

2:00 time stamp she has her engine door hatch open

[@1Long2Short]

Most of the lake freighters will run with the engine room door open in warmer weather when seas are calm. It gets pretty warm in there, so the extra ventilation is nice to have. 😅

[@david92797]

Impresionante el tamaño de ese barco

[@adriaanboogaard8571]

Fantastic video. I especially like the part with the Railway in the background.
