🤙 This is a great way to be an indirect mentor for the new kids on shore who are not sure what they want to do. Options, options, options. General Dynamics electric boat grabbed me right out of college. I was a engineering major in electronics, radio, radar, communications. This was back during the Vietnam conflict. I spent two year at sea on the USS Coral Sea CV-43 as a contractor. I did not wear the uniform. Keep up the great videos and interviews. ✌

That's super cool though, and I wish companies like that did more recruiting on high school and college campuses for skilled trades positions. (Or professional engineering positions for that matter).

Those Cat engines can run upwards of 2MW each. That's way more power and volume than I expected to see. These tugs are a lot bigger than I thought

@tugboatwilly843 Ай бұрын

They are pretty big boats. They just don’t seam so next to the giant ships. Thanks for watching 🤙

That boat is in capable hands

He’s a great dude! Thanks for watching 🤙

Pretty cool. I'm confident I could be productive in that role. Need some training on the electrical (specifically redundancies and switching). Everything else is bit like wearing an old hat. You pay attention to the machine. A new vibration, a change in frequency, deviation in loads and consumption.. everything has causation. Mike appreciate taking the time to show us around.

Do it! It really is a cool industry with lots of things to keep you busy down there. Thanks for watching 🤙
