tim ur dad is the definition of a true professional driver nice to see some of those guys are still around

[@fuzzybutkus8970]

I don’t get the dynamic there. How did pops get below son in the pecking order?? He’s obviously a good ole school driver. I’m retired out of a big truck. I know a lot of us old drivers had some problems away from the truck. I know I’d hire him in a heart beat.

[@georged1085]

@@fuzzybutkus8970I believe his dad and another family member worked for another company but told Tim if he could get things rolling they’d quit and work for him

[@Boomhauer333]

I thought the 5 troopers was gonna be excessive and overkill but they put in work and looks like they were very helpful. Bucket truck came in very handy too. Good job boys!

[@thomasdragosr.841]

Once you leave NYC the Northeast is very congested and the drivers tend to be aggressive so the troopers were well worth it.

[@chuckparson6712]

I bet that bucket truck operator gets him a fiberglass pole to lift them small wires with. It would of saved him a lot of time and energy 🤣. Awesome video and man I like that black Peterbilt truck, super sharp rig right there 👍👍

[@kendixon6926]

This is what we watch the channel for

[@marshall0792]

I remember watching another Heavy Haul Driver on YT a couple 3 years ago explain permits and how much of a pain in the butt they are and the costs. This boat is a “Super Load” I estimate the cost of the permits(paper work, surveys, pilot cars, police escort, damn boom truck) you looking at 10s of thousands of dollars. And the boat owner said “Do It” Owner must really love that boat.

[@craigdawson1749]

I'm pretty sure $50-$100k was mentioned

[@johnlove5715]

my butt was drawed most of the trip, thanks for taking along.

How cool is that!! The boat is called Free Bird!! Rockin!

That's a bada** boat. Everyone did a fantastic job. Pilot cars, State Troopers, Finis, bucket truck man. Love the complete trip with this boat. God Bless You and your family ❤

[@Easterwood67]

Power lines are on top bro, i thought everyone knew that. Those are phone and cable lines

[@rayweeks4018]

You are correct.

[@producerk8247]

You should really invest in an oversized load mirror extension package to help the driver see around the sides when hauling oversized loads. (Just a suggestion) Anything to help situational awareness.

[@mikeshultz1007]

Panorama view remote cameras would be better

[@robertesposito9871]

Sometimes those extended mirrors cause more problems than there worth, sometimes you have to hug the curb and you windup taking out the mirrors on a sign or pole or prevent from hugging the curb to make a turn

[@billywhite3020]

Way to go tim you got a great bunch of people who help you

[@dennisbelles9236]

Whew, I'm relieved that thing is delivered. I know you guys must feel the same way

[@GRANITEMONUMENT]

There is just no way this could have been a better option than just driving the boat up the coast.. it’s plenty big enough to safely make it, and not so big that fuel would make it cost prohibitive

[@mikebonnett7730]

anyone else hearing the Jerry Reed song eastbound and down loaded up and truckin RIP Jerry and CW McCall they both had great old trucker songs I used too listen too them while driving late at night too help me stay awake

[@danielseelye6005]

I still love "Six Days on the Road" by Dave Dudley and will break down hearing Red Sovine's "Giddy Up Go".

[@williamfrederick3849]

Don't forget Minnie Peal and Red Sovine... and teddybear

[@robertesposito9871]

I ran oversized for years and there’s no better feeling than when you get those tall loads off your trailers and safely delivered, I didn’t mind wide heavy or long but I hated those tall loads

[@elijahdane4121]

Keep your deddy in the truck. The content for trucking is with him. Put him in some nice sht. Let the camera follow him. There’s your advertisement for your direction.

Tim I would have to saw your Dad did a very awesome job pulling that boat

[@georgelukemire5743]

I want to start by saying I’m not a trucker and I know nothing about the trucking industry. I’ve been a subscriber since you first appeared on Bruces channel. Your videos are always interesting and positive. This video is by far the best video you have ever posted. Great job showing the challenges you faced along the way. I’d be shocked if this doesn’t get the most views you’ve ever gotten. Great job. I was on the edge of my seat the whole time.

[@neilmcintosh1200]

Finis's neat efficient driving in that clean running black truck with the monster load is your best advert ever for your company. Absolutely excellent.

[@thomasstone313]

Your dad is a true gentleman trucker always dressed nice and clean cut.

[@mpaqman285]

Job well done, hats off to your dad, hes a hell of a driver.

[@craigheavyhaul3988]

Talk about stressful. Wouldn’t it have been easier to just captain the boat up from Florida?

[@haroldholt8682]

Amazing video, throughly enjoyed it! Great job!

[@JoshA85]

Only issue I see with the new channel is Tims wife seems insecure at times and is really quick to be done with KZbin over the smallest things like for example negative FEEDBACK and it will absolutely be necessary to be all dolled up with tons of makeup or she ain’t gonna have it.. I super excited to see how it all plays out. Poor ol’ Timmy could just take his negative feedback and fix it and he could be a successful KZbinr, he knows a lot of successful people in the KZbin industry I just think he’s to damn hard headed to listen to his viewers and change some of the things he’s doing.

[@ernestbrothers1298]

Why should he change except in unsafe ways. Haters watching the channel also help build channel

[@juansalinas6927]

How about just keep your opinion to yourself you don’t like what he’s doing or running his channel don’t watch the videos it’s that simple keyboard warrior

[@thanors2]

Maybe she just doesn't like youtube it's not for everybody and that's ok beside you like a troll just trying to bother Tim... Plus, he already is a successful youtuber you're here watching trying to get some attention.

[@joebarillaro8089]

They definitely sent you guys on the worst possible route. If you had stayed straight when the pilot car kept going and you had to wait for him to turn around, it would have brought you on a main road CT66 straight to RT9 right to Saybrook instead of going on the back roads through Wallingford and Durham awesome job getting it there.

[@clintendicott2950]

You have to stay on route that the state approves. That's why they had to back up on the road.

[@mikeshultz1007]

It would have been faster and cheaper transporting the boat to Connecticut via water and it wouldn't have been any hassles. Anytime a boat is being relocated and the destination can be reached by water it is usually the best option for any larger boat. From Ft Lauderdale to Old Saybrook Connecticut is 1150 miles via water and a formula 45 with twin 435hp volvo d6 propulsion a good cruising speed is 25 mph with a 35 gph fuel burn. Non stop that would be around 45 hrs over water and it would take 1,700 gallons of Diesel fuel for the trip and there wouldn't be any haul out expenses or disassembly related expenses. The trip would have taken $7000 in diesel fuel plus whatever a captain wanted to charge for the trip which wouldn't have been more than $10,000. That boat could have reached it's destination for $17,000 via water with only one person involved. Compare that to the cost of the trip over land via truck.

[@gerijohnson-lv6oc]

Mikeshultz1007 The ocean in March is snotty, including all the winter debris and heavy downpours from the rivers into the ocean. Also. The boat is not new, and not under warrenty. There were some unresolved motor issues. Imagine getting stuck, pulling into some marina and wait for parts, and unknown people to fix, while paying 2 people to captain it each and every day. The owner is fussy about who touches his engines. Either way was a crapshoot.

[@user-xl7rt1tc6o]

2nd request of why trucking when the Atlantic Ocean would be far easier? Boats float and motor.

[@Lloyd973]

These boats travel about 8-10 knots. If the owner isn’t a qualified captain then hiring one your insurance carrier approves of becomes an issue. Fuel consumption is a very real item with diesel costs averaging $4.50 per gal. Marine diesel would be more expensive. Boats this size probably hold 300-600 gals minimum. Don’t know fuel consumption on his engines but it’s probably high. Then you have lodging and fuel stops to plan. Lots goes into a trip this far.

[@robpeters5204]

Because rich people love to be difficult. They could have put the dam thing on a barge with others boats going north and got a way better deal than sailing it up with some special licensed captain. There is the railway system also which I’m sure would have been easy as well.

[@krisknight7258]

He said the customer didn’t want to transport via water because of it being spring and didn’t want the possibility of damage from floating debris

[@thefunatnight]

@@krisknight7258 That’s what insurance is for.

The fact that Tim made his customer whole is proof that he is an honorable businessman. Too many businesses in the same situation would tell their customer they need to deal with the subcontractor directly.
