LAST SECTION OF GOLDEN RAY LEAVES SITE!!! on October 25, 2021

[@bobbue8166]

As always, great video, and awesome drone work……. Thanks Capt Andy

[@johnbrossack3791]

Captain Andy, as Paul Harvey used to say, we're looking forward to "the rest of the story". Keep up the great work.

[@redevil7081]

Long time coming. Hope nothing like this stains your river and estuary again. Thanks for your efforts and extremely timely reporting to keep us all informed. Again, thanks for your visual timeline of a costly mistake.

[@kenhull1245]

Outstanding coverage Capt Andy! I'm sure I'm not alone in wondering how MARS will be doing the disassembly of the last two sections in port. The same is true for how they'll clean up the seabed of all the parts and pieces left behind (parts of the sections and auto parts and pieces). Beautiful to see nothing but water now! Thank you Capt Andy! Be safe and stay healthy!

[@joegilkey4664]

Now just the cleanup. Hoping it get done properly. Thanks for all the updates Capt Andy. You sir be safe.

[@waltermomma3415]

*** Nervous?*** Lucky They Had Calm Seas Cap ! Key West Dave. Just Amazing Close Up Overhead Drone Shots. Breathtaking. LET'S DANCE CAP.

[@mastercj59]

Mon/26Oct2021 - Just got to view the video. What a Joyous day to see this happening. THIS chapter is closed but now we have to wait for the rest of the book.

[@TheTacktishion]

Really Close to 10,000 subscribers.... Great Job, Capt. Andy....! Great Job with the drone also....

[@MinorcanMullet]

So close! MM

[@MrBonkit]

The MM10K

[@elizabethrunge8154]

A happy dance is needed for sure. It seems like it was about this time last year, GA/FL week, that they began making the first cut. Captain Andy thanks for this awesome footage! I loved how close you were in giving us a look from the top as section 4 passed beneath. I’ll be with you to the end of this operation.

[@stancass1063]

Thanks for the great drone shots , especially the one at the end with the tugs and barge going under very close up. The best!!!!!

[@MinorcanMullet]

Glad you like them! MM

[@daviddrysdale8523]

Captain Andy, it has been an exciting journey, and quite a story you have brought to us over the past year or so. Thanks a mil, you did a great job! I was mesmerized following the story all the way from Jamaica in the Caribbean.

[@MinorcanMullet]

Many thanks!!!! MM

[@MegaEaglelover]

A HUGE SALUTE TO U ANDY AND ALL THOSE FELLAS DOIN THIS WORK 🤠🤘🏼🤠🤘🏼🤠🤘🏼🤠🤘🏼

[@johnszurek5209]

I am so happy for you and the residents of St Simon Sound! Thank you ever so much sharing this story with us.

[@cmartin_ok]

Two sections, that's about a quarter of the ship, have left their "sides" on the sea bed along with numerous vehicles, so this operation is far from over

[@williamlloyd3769]

Since salvage team just removed final section 4 of the wreck, I decided to rewatch your earlier video that started the series. It’s interesting to see how the (in theory) illustration became fact with all the bumps along the way!

[@henryjones6923]

Hey Captain Andy. After they get everything cleaned up and the barriers are all gone your sign off video should be you doing donuts over the sight. 🤣

[@godslove7708]

Good day and no Human deaths.

[@NancySimonds]

Outstanding video, Andy! Now the really dirty job begins. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👍🏻👍🏻

[@GWM9930]

Captain Andy, what a great day! Seeing the final section being towed into port is a great site sight to see! There's still lots of important cleanup work to be done, but this is a monumental day!! Thanks for the video, drone shots, and your commentary!!! You're the best. Go ahead and "dance" Captain!!

[@MinorcanMullet]

Thanks 👍. MM

[@dennisarellano8817]

Thanks for the update and staying on for the cleanup.

[@rona-husky9019]

Happy day, congratulations to one and all for job well done getting those giant chunks out of the sound , now for phase 2 , thanks Capt. Andy 👍😎

[@MinorcanMullet]

That's the plan! MM

[@mwrcrft]

Great video ushering the last section off the wreck site. Thanks for sharing your experience.

[@donalddodson7365]

Happy day! Wonder how soon the next RORO or mega-container ship will be in the same situation, somewhere on the globe. Be safe. Thank you for your coverage.

[@chrismallory5953]

Very, very enjoyable to watch. I learned a great deal. Chris

[@FlashGeiger]

I wonder if they can insulate the leads enough and provide enough electrical current out there to use a big electromagnet on a crane to clean up the sea bed.

[@allanharris4492]

Hey Andy, if you are looking for something to do this winter you should do a book with an accompanying DVD on this story . Suggested titles please.

[@mikemc7704]

Andy always an Awsome job with the filming and the information. I enjoyed all the coverage!

[@vanshields7145]

Your a Great Captain keep it coming with the final clean up

[@rhDozer]

Ya baby! So happy for these people that end is near, the noise, pollution, smoke from the fire. Sad for me , it’s been interesting, thanks to you Capt.

[@rhDozer]

Hey Capt, I read that someone mentioned T-shirts! Go for it, make some gas money! I’ll take 2 - XL Please!!!

[@flowerpeddler8306]

Yeah, that was me wanting the shirts, but the noise pollution and constant horn honking are still here. They've overgrown this tiny island, a shame.

[@yasnac7576]

Great day! Captain Andy thanks so much for your video production of this ship being removed. Hopefully the remaining junk on the sea bed will be cleaned up. Will you be covering that portion of this removal? Again great job!

[@vincentwesolowski459]

Great aerial photography!

[@billmoran3812]

I think it will still be some time before what’s left on the bottom is cleaned up. It’s got to be pretty substantial, especially the way section 4 looked when it was out of the water. I’ll bet there’s quite a number of cars down there too.

[@yasminwilson7420]

The day I’ve been waiting for glad to see this thing gone now for the fun part car fishing Might try and catch my girlfriend a Cadillac Escalade 😂😂

[@JoeLinux2000]

Amazing coverage. You had a very busy day today.

[@garygivler3918]

Awesome to see that final section removed!!

[@conantdog]

Incredible drone work 👀👍

[@MrBoaterman]

That Yamaha sounds sweet, Andy!

[@1rembo69]

1, 2, 5, 10 years from now will there still be pieces of vehicles washing up on shore from this disaster ship wreck? Take your guess!!! Then what day will the VB 10000 be leaving for the last time from Brunswick, GA.

[@patchmack4469]

yahoo - Capitan Andy sounds a happy bunny - now its just a quick clear up on the sea bed and bug out all the barrier etc some great shots of the barge etc passing under your drone epic finish i cant wait to see your future film, Golden Ray re-enacted haha - should take you 2 years to make ??

[@MinorcanMullet]

Sounds great! MM

[@susanromsiewicz4128]

Captain Andy, Keep those stories coming!! Last section. Doesn't seem.possible. Like à story book.

[@MinorcanMullet]

That's the plan! MM

[@richardcrawford8047]

I wonder when they will start the sea floor clean up. Keep us posted.

[@williamplonty5924]

Captain Andy, Is that mud coming up at 11:45?

[@harrisonhunter7512]

This has been one hell of a journey.

[@AKIPOPOPOPOOON]

What a beautiful sight!

[@cmartin_ok]

Any idea if the VB will go into port (Brunswick or nearby?) for maintenance etc before moving away, or is it likely to get towed from where it is to its next job?

[@MinorcanMullet]

Won't fit under the bridge, so Brunswick is out. It did stop in Fernandina, Fl. before coming to the wreck. SOOOOOO ???? (i dont know). :). MM

[@cornfieldvideo]

I am curious why the blue paint on the hull went away. Just a few spots where it is still showing. four years old and it's all faded??? Cheap paint? Great Job, Cap'n Andy.

[@cmartin_ok]

A number of factors, the marine environment is tough on paint, heat damage and/or effects of paint strippers from when the lifting brackets were welded on, the effects of the fire etc etc

[@bladewiper]

I am guessing the Kurt J. stayed connected to the barge while the section was being lowered on to it.

[@MinorcanMullet]

yes it did. MM

[@jasonharper2601]

be intresting to see underwater video of any debris on the ocean bottom

[@danielsmith-ze3wy]

Thanks for the video

[@johnblesch9379]

Capt. Andy you have done a great job with the reports and thank you for your efforts. Is the V B self propelled or tug assisted? Thanks!

[@MinorcanMullet]

It had the ability to move with a propulsion system, but for a long haul, it’s towed. MM

[@MrBonkit]

How long until the VB10K ships out ?

[@w.jamesschill8910]

Captain Andy all the pieces in Brunswick will stay in port and be dismantled there? Great work Captain

[@MinorcanMullet]

Yes. The pieces left in Brunswick will be broken into smaller pieces for transit. MM

[@webaileyjr]

Woo hoo! About time.

[@vincentwesolowski459]

Hmmmm……. Having been in the USN and the USCG Auxiliary, my guess is the gentleman in the dungarees, lime shirt, white hard hat and sitting in a white chair is supposed to be on lookout duty and not playing on his phone?

[@MinorcanMullet]

May have been checking weather or tide stage? They seemed to have the reigns secured. MM

[@vincentwesolowski459]

@@MinorcanMullet Good Try. I would think that work would be done on the bridge. This is how a tug pushing a barge up the Delaware River ran over a disabled Duck boat. The captain was on his cell phone and the barge watch stander wasn’t in position.

[@MichaelRickman]

Looks like the Crosby Leader is coming for the VB to take her to Mexico

[@davidjustice5905]

good job

[@quest2outdoors]

👍👍👍

[@marydegenkolb9603]

party time!

[@tomwilliam5118]

Have you sold your house boat yet

[@MinorcanMullet]

Yes. Been gone awhile now. MM

[@davidarnette327]

Good bye and adios don't like you I think you're gross. That's to section 4 of course. We appreciate all the videos since day 1. I am giving my guess now, 30 cars still underwater.

[@webaileyjr]

Woo hoo! About time.
