Smaller Ships = Bigger Problems

In this Video we sail a barge and take it to a very small ship. Sometimes a small ship can be more of a challange than a large ship.

Captain thank you for sharing. First off I would like to say this video is awesome and informative. The ship you are going alongside the Oleander. She runs a regular service between New York and Bermuda. The BCL on the side of the ship stands for Bermuda Container Line. This ship was purpose built for the run and conditions on the New York to Bermuda route. This ship and two others are quite literally the lifeline to my little island home. That is part of what makes this video so cool to watch, thank you for sharing and greetings from Bermuda

I live on a UK narrow boat 57' long 7' beam it has tiller steering and only one prop but its interesting to me the similarities in the way your barges behave and mine. I don't often venture on to tidal rivers and spend most of my time on canals so there is very little in the way of currents. The only force of nature I have to contend with is wind. Anyway more power to your elbow and may you have blue skies and fair winds. :-)
