Reminds me of my Navy days USS New York City SSN 696 we sailed up past Ambrose lite to the GW bridge and turned around could not dock in NYC because we were Nuclear powered. A Tug came bye tied up for 20 minutes maybe less and we transferred sone crew off. Long time ago.

I helped build that barge along with some of the best ship fitters, pipe fitters, welders, and painters (DS-305) in 2013 - 2014 in Orange Texas. It was designed by Bristol Harbor Group in Rhode Island. That is a 35,000 barrel (1,470,000 Gallon) Bunker Barge. It is built using 2,654,000 lbs of steel. Not only does the tug crew live on board, the barge crew lives on their vessel as well. It has living quarters in the deck house on the starboard side of the stern. Thanks Captain Tim. The boat is obviously designed by Entech, and was likely built in Florida by a company called St. Johns Shipyard.

Enjoyed your video Capt Tim. I served for 3.5 years on the US Army FS 313 moored at Pier 23 Tacoma, WA from Nov 1971 to Apr 1975. I was a 61B20, which a Senior Seaman. I was part of the helmsman rotation. The FS was 176 ft, twin GM V6 diesels making 500 hp each and she cruised at 13 knots. Before I mustered out of the WA Army National Guard I requested a letter documenting my time of service on the FS. I took that letter to the USCG in Seattle and obtained Z card as they were called back in the day. Never used my credentials for employment. 45 years later after receiving my Ordinary Seaman's credit I spent four months and more than $500 successfully renewing my OS credentials. I was going to get a deck hands job on a Hells Canyon tour boat but the regs had been changed removing the USCG certified crew. So only the skipper was required to be certified. Then I applied for a job on board the Alaska Marine Highway System out of Ketecikan. I was invited to be considered for a Steward's position on one of their boats but declined because it is a very remote area. I felt a bit homesick watching your video. It brought back many good memories. Many Thanks.

I always loved that they are named after the tributaries of the Chesapeake; I have sailed many of those rivers on the family sailboat when I was a kid. Thank you for taking the time to share this with us. Aside from seeing the boat and the people who operate it, it brings joy to this person who misses the East Coast and its rivers.

I've always been fascinated by the maritime industry. Being from Michigan, I've occasionally seen some decent freighters moving on along the Detroit River, and the Great Lakes. Also got to see a freighter navigate through the locks of Sault Ste. Marie. I probably could work in that industry, but I'll just stick with my little boat instead.

Wow, I’m glad I found this! I always had a interest in NY Harbor shipping, I even track some of Vanes boats. It’s amazing that some of these local tugs go around the horn of Florida to pick up oil in Texas, then haul it all the way back to NY. Good stuff!

Awesome and interesting video! I'm just curious about what the benefits are of a bunkering barge + tug instead of just having a bunkering ship that doesn't need a tug. Loved the video, would be great with more tugboat videos! Cheers from Sweden!
@TimBatSea4 жыл бұрын
So there are a few reasons why a barge is preferable to a smaller ship. It mostly comes down to money. A ship will have different Manning requirements than a barge. For example, a ship will need an entire crew and a barge needs none (fulltime). There are unmanned barges that have shore side tankermen that will only come in for the load or discharge. Most of our barges have two tankermen and although they do need a tankermen endorsement, they don't need a Captain's license or Engineer's license. Another advantage is that it make take 12 hours or more to pump off a load to a ship, and we can leave one barge at the ship working and go do two or three other jobs while that one is still discharging.
