Just wanted to thank Captain Jeff for inviting Mike to tour his ship. I am sure Mike learned a ton. No doubt he will share much with the Boat Friends. Thanks for everything you do Jeff for the shipping industry and helping spread knowledge and excitement. I can't wait until you return to Duluth!

[@DressyBessie]

[@mikegross6107]

I don't know WHY I get so emotional watching these great ships pass through this lock but I DO! Maybe it's because of my tour of Navy duty (1955-1959)! Age is preventing me to travel from Tucson to Duluth but watching this on my computer screen and hearing those great horn blasts on my hi-fi speakers will have to satisfy my longings! Thank you for your work and efforts and stay safe!

[@vibewithmike]

Mike, I will always thank you for your service and putting that uniform on! It means a lot to me and so many other people. Much respect. I know what you mean, though, there are emotions that get stirred up in all of us when we see these vessels and hear the horns. Sometimes it’s like the kid and us looking at a big ship go by and also I think it’s because these things arenon-controversial, it’s pure fun and entertainment and joy

[@skycvg]

Really enjoy how you bring the crews to life for all the Boatfriends. It's good to know that the captain and crews know how much we care by you being our ambassador for this great hobby of watching ships. As always, Fair Winds and Following Seas for Captain Jeff and crew of the John J Boland.

[@vibewithmike]

It was fun being able to show you things behind-the-scenes

[@Arizona-Sonoran-Desert-Guy]

It was a fine gathering and event of the boat friends and nerds. Captain Jeff gave a nice salute. It was pure Americana. I had to smile at your scorching 86-degree temperature. We've been well over 100 degrees here for several days now. I turn on the AC in my home when the temperature reaches above 86 degrees Fahrenheit and then set it to 82. On a humorous aside, my wife recently adopted a very talkative African Gray parrot. When my wife remarked that it was 108 outside, the parrot (Sammy) immediately responded, "Oh, I know, tell me about it." (No exaggeration or embellishment).

[@vibewithmike]

I knew I would get a lot of people going in the hot states, many people are at 100+ degrees and I said 86 is hot🤣🤣🤣🤣👍👍👍👍🥵🥵🥵🥵

[@jdoggmyersiii7254]

Great looking boat. Very unique boat horn! And we got a twofer one horn blast 💥. Thanks Captain Jeff for the great salute. Thanks to you Mike for bringing us another great video!

[@vibewithmike]

No, thank you! Thank you for being a Boat friend and taking a little extra time to leave a positive and fun comment for someone to read like this. I wish you the best. Thank you for your support and kind words.👍⛴️👋

Boat friends is that like "boat drinks", Jimmy Buffett (RIP). Love watching the big ships going in or out of Duluth MN . Saw them alot as kid.

[@vibewithmike]

Jimmy Buffett is synonymous with a beautiful day by the water! What a career! Make sure you turned up really loud. Here you go. kzbin.info/www/bejne/p3akgnqLedWaaLc

[@Kristina-rm8nx]

I enjoy hearing the Ship's Horn. Helps with my depression and Makes me think of my Mom, that died 5yrs ago from Cancer....

[@vibewithmike]

Thank you so much for sharing your experience. It means a lot to know that my ship videos have brought you some comfort and relief during such a challenging time. Losing a loved one, especially a parent, is incredibly hard, and it's touching to hear that my content can provide a moment of peace and distraction for you. Remember, it's okay to feel sad, and it's important to give yourself the grace to grieve. Your mom's memory will always be a part of you, and finding small joys, like watching videos that bring you comfort, is a wonderful way to honor her. Stay strong, and please know that you are not alone. We're all here with you, navigating life's ups and downs together. All of us boat friends are here for you!

[@vibewithmike]

I want you to check out this video kzbin.info/www/bejne/i6m2eGNvrr-rbbMsi=N9G66xYYrV4-e2Es

You are a fantastic ambassador for beautiful Duluth and Northern MN, Mike. Another great video that brought a smile to my day. You truly are a friend to all who “gather” here. Thanks so much for sharing the summer action at Canal Park today!

[@vibewithmike]

It’s a wonderful summer day out there in Duluth

[@chucke4294]

Hey Mike, and all the Boat Friend Nation! Missed this feed as was in Medora, ND with my son and his family. Get this Mike, it was 105 degrees with high humidity there, and big storms just missed but went on to hammer the Twin cites later on that nite. Medora is a cowboy town, and puts on a fantastic family musical every nite in the summer that is great entertainment for everyone. Fantastic shots of this vessel that got to visit which I know you enjoyed. This ship being part of the ASC line is in great condition for a hard working vessel, and the Captain as a true boat friend enjoying his job and loves to blow the carbon out of the horn. With that high bow which makes it look even more powerful, and would help go thru those storm waves as well. Looks like a beautiful day in Dtown as well. Fair winds and calm seas to this beautiful ship and crew. Later Man,…..,

[@MargaretStewart-jz9em]

Thank you, Mike! You brightened up a glum Eastern Shore day no end! 30 miles to the west I have Chesapeake Bay and the Atlantic 30 miles east, but nothing can match our Great Lakes! Cleveland rocks!

I think it’s hilarious that I was telling everybody how hot it is in Duluth and then all of our friends in Arizona, Texas and other places, they’re like at 110°. They would think it’s cold in Duluth. They must think I’m silly.👍👍👍👍👍🤣🤣🤣🥵🥵🥵🥵🔥🔥🔥⛴️⛴️⛴️⛴️

Boland with Captain Jeff, his greeting us from the Bridge with TWO Salutes and you being able to talk with a long time viewer. Those videos and pictures on the Boland are supreme, I almost said “Superior”. What a Day. Fair Winds and Following Seas to Captain and Crew. Enjoy your time in the BFB this Evening, Mike. Always looking for more from Duluth. It’s too crowded here to even try to get to the Water.

[@vibewithmike]

Carl, I have a lot of respect for you and your fellow truckers! It’s no easy job and you just like many of these folks in the Maritime industry are away from your family providing a service to the entire country. I’m trying to think which restaurant you might have visited. There are a few that have good trucks parking areas. Did you make it to Duluth during the winter or summer? That makes a big difference with the roads because they can get quite icy going up the hills here. Again, thank you so much for being part of this channel and being about friend.

Sorry I missed the live stream, but I just finished watching it. Beautiful ship! Oh, and I went out today at 3PM (ET), got in my SUV and the internal temp was 104F and the O/S temp was 95. Supposed to be 98 Sat and 99 Sun!

[@vibewithmike]

I feel so silly for even mentioning how hot it isn’t Duluth! All of our friends in Arizona, Nevada, and everywhere else, 86° is like air conditioning. Even for you 99° in the sun. That’s no joke.👍⛴️

Such a fun video! Thanks for all your hard work. 😊

The people on the ship work hard

I Miss going to Duluth with my Mom every summer 😢 watching the Ships. Are you the same guy, that has done the famous Cemeteries of children?? Your voice sounds the same.

[@christophernix8003]

Love your content. Keep the commentary.

[@vibewithmike]

Thanks Chris, I hope you’re having a wonderful Friday night so far

[@thomasrussojr4603]

Thanks!

[@vibewithmike]

I want to say thank you SO MUCH! You are very generous! I can’t tell you how much I appreciate you. These ships are more than objects that move by us. There’s a lot going on in the world. However, these ships allow us to relax for a moment and think about something that is very pure and noncontroversial. I love these ships! I can tell you love the ships too. I’m lucky to live by this Lift Bridge here in Duluth, so the least I can do is post fun videos documenting the ships into peoples living rooms, on phones, or any other way they consume KZbin. Again, I want to thank you so much. Have a wonderful night my friend!⛴️🙏👍

[@timlabell]

Hello you are the boat friend.. I'm a boat friend myself. However here in mesquite Nevada we got a sudden rush of Duluth humidity and now 110° feels like 130° and it's not comfortable at all. So " cool " 😎 👌 you are.

[@vibewithmike]

Oh my goodness! 130°! You can cook a full Thanksgiving meal in that type of heat. It’s warm but windy in Duluth today.

[@cuummie]

Thanks Mike for youre answer....the temperature here is about 20 Celsius, and every day its raining...last tuesday it was like i was in Florida, one day with temperature above 30 Celsius, but afterwards massive thunder and huge rain....that ship is a beauty ...its a big company here with lots of ships...thanks again and have a great weekend !
