Tim you probably will never see this but I want to write this anyway. I have NO experience as a commercial mariner....I DID get my "6-pack" license in 1984 and owned boats for 35 years. I love your channel. I grew up on the Elizabeth,NJ and Carteret,NJ waterfronts . I worked on the docks and worked with gasoline barges. I just want to thank you for a great channel. There is no such thing as dead air my friend. Stay safe. Mike

Tim I paused at 4.00 because you carefully explained why more professional mariners do not post. I am extremely grateful for you and more grateful for your employer who allows you to present a line of work I have always been fascinated by. I grew up around a location where numerous tugboats worked and climbing aboard to experience what they do just does not exist on KZbin. Thank you and your employer for filling an interest gap. Happy New Year.

@@GrifFungin No sir, he works for a company that tolerates his postings. The gist of the message Tim is asking is for viewers to respect the anonymity of his employer so he can continue to offer his productions. If I owned a towboat company, Tim would be a first choice to captain any boats in the fleet. If I had a need of a towboat, Tim's employer would be my first choice because of the tolerance. You can search KZbin and will not find these types of videos anywhere but here. Several creators have tried, but Tim posts on a regular basis. If you want to see another pro who has latitude with their employer, check out TheCrewChef, who is the executive chef on a charter yacht. Warning, you will be in the galley and not on the helm.😀 However, she is a cutie. 👍 (Sorry Tim).

Cavitation is a fascinating subject with serious physics behind it. I am a hydraulics engineer, and have seen valves and piping eroded away from the inside from the energy created by the tiny bubbles collapsing. There is another interesting phenomenon called “sono-luminescence” where when the bubbles collapse, they give off a purplish glow. Have some colleagues who ran an experiment showing this with a hydraulic circuit in a Lexan body and the glow is visible. I think they put the video on KZbin somewhere. They brag about creating their hydraulic lightbulb. Really enjoy everything you share with us. Happy Holidays

Frequent watcher, first time commenter here. Tim, I just wanted to take a second to say how much I appreciate you and your work on this channel. I have a small (to you) 35 foot twin engine vessel I keep on Lake Michigan. I have found the way you talk through your thought processes as you are underway, give helpful tips on VHF etiquette, explain how little guys can stay out of the big guys way SO INCREDIBLY useful. Not to mention all of the tips you give on handling in tight quarters (without having to scream at any of your crew--which my wife has come to appreciate) as, really, although the stakes are bigger for you--the forces on the boat remain largely the same. Thank you for doing what you do. Keep it up and maybe we'll catch up to you out there somewhere. :)

I had one of the coldest night cargo watches ever and I still remember the sound of the ice cakes going by in the river to this day. Now a (retired) Master Mariner and pilot, this took me back to memories of days long gone. Thanks for the memories and Happy New Year.

Hi Tim. Good to see you at sea again. I like the rear-facing camera. Hey, if the vid is too long, I'll skip forward looking for action. If it's not on the video, I can't see it, so longer is better than shorter for me. The turn was nicely done. You steadied up right on the desired bearing. We used some of the same twin-screw techniques on Navy destroyers back in the day. Only thing, we'd have been yelled at for leaving those hatches open underway. :D

Great video thanks Tim. Hope you had a good Christmas (albeit working) and all the best for the New Year. Re video length, I'd say you've historically got it about right. But if you want to fulfill other's wishes and make them longer then it is always possible for some to fast forward through the slower bits, as long as there isn't your chat during them which would be missed. Perhaps even say if there's going to be anything more exciting at the end and at what timestamp (might need to be a caption). Thanks again for your hard work. It's much appreciated here in the UK.

Just want to wish you a Happy New Year and many more. I grew up in NYC, my father worked in Bush Terminal in Brooklyn when Brooklyn had a commercial waterfront, hence I knew about tugs and barges, especially railroad floats, back in those days every RR serving the city had a fleet of steam tugs. Remember riding the Erie ferry to Hoboken and the Staten Island Ferry from Brooklyn where we lived. I was a Coast Guard officer based on Staten Island and Governor's Island, later I taught at NY Maritime, maybe you should draw attention to the state Maritime academies in NY, Mass, Maine, Texas, and CA, these offer good educational opportunities and often are free or almost free and unlike a lot of schools, most all grads end up with a job. I am always in awe of your docking skills, yeah, I can dock a twin screw ship with CS props and a bow thruster that weights 2500 tons but you have a barge ten times that size and handle it like a baby carriage, wow!

Docking, undocking, and traveling. Three elements without fail in your videos, which are great. Your dialogue is so engaging and informative but when you don't have anything to say it's not dead air. It's traveling. Always a pleasure and I look forward to these every week. Plus an added benefit: if you're filming you always have an alibi if you need it. LOL Danny will be missed for sure.

Wow these are great videos, thank you captain! I live in this area and love the Hudson and Mohawk rivers. I miss seeing the barges and tugs on the Mohawk River and the ones that used to ply the waters of the Champlain canal and lake. I should have pursued a maritime career, especially on inland waters as I think it would have been a good fit as I am not a 9 to 5 guy. Thanks to these videos I can live a little vicariously through these great Mariners lol. Stay safe on the waters, and thank you for bringing us the goods we need 👍🇺🇸

I've seen these fuel barges going up and down the Hudson River from one of my stopping points at Tivoli, NY. Now it will mean a lot more to me, and I'll get out the binoculars to catch the name of the tug to see if maybe it's your tug. Viewer feedback; YES on the aft-facing camera. I can go either way on the "dead air" issue. Maybe if, as you sometimes do, acted as tour guide and pointed out things of interest along the way the dead air wouldn't be so....dead, and, if you "cut to the chase" that would be fine too. Be all that as it may, I am never, ever, bored watching Tim B at Sea. Happy New Year, everybody!

I worked as a musician aboard an RCCL ship Jewel of the Seas in 2005. When we docked at Georgetown, Bermuda, the captain had to navigate between two jetties and then turn around. Anyway, in the turnaround process the cap turned that boat 962 feet long between those jetties with no more than 50 feet clearance fore and aft. That was massively impressive. Guys holding laser rangefinders on the bow & stern. Ship had azipods, not regular propeller(s), and of course bow thrusters. I always wondered if the nav system had some kind of turn-in-place routine they could call up to spin the boat on a dime. They did this a lot, but never more dramatic than Bermuda. They never wanted to back out of a port on departure.

You were about 10 miles south of me, in Troy, NY, Rensselaer county. Jet fuel is probably destined for the local International Airport, just a few miles to the NW of the port of Rensselaer. Those power, lines seen ahead crossing the river, come from the power plant, on the West side of the river and feed the East Greenbush substation, on the East side and a mile or so from the river. This electrical substation is one of two electric feeds for the Hospital across the street from where I live. With this in mind I can see, on maps the turning basin you will use.

Tim some thoughts for you. I would not ever want to put your channel in jeopardy, so thanks for telling me the 'rules'. As for the loss of Danny you never know what happens in life and your advice, kindly given, means more than you could ever know. I would not be where I am without kind people offering me their best counsel, and me be willing to hear it. Good on YOU for passing the wisdom along. Tim you constantly remind me that with age, comes wisdom, and passing that wisdom along to all of US makes US better. God bless and keep you good captain. May your crews never tire until the work is done! Merry Christmas and Happy new year to the best YT skipper I can think of !
