A fine film tribute to the men who manned the Rescue Tugs during both World Wars in truth very little footage of these men was taken as the London Government thought the sight of battered ships would be bad for morale but then the London Government never has had a good understanding of its own people.

Well, he did say he was going to get a feel for the old girl, didn't he? He's seeing how well the engine room crew responds to the EOT, and how fast the rudder can respond to the helm. If I remember this film right, this tug's used for recovering ships that are stranded way out to sea in the atlantic during WWII, where the threat of getting torpedoed was a very real one, so these maneuvers could be critical in an emergency.

Though Shipwright has a good point, he's probably testing how quickly and precisely the crew responds to orders.

He had to do that, because the ship was already at full ahead when he wanted more steam.

Malcolm Arnold composed the score of this 1958 film only one year after 'The Bridge on the River Kwai,' and his style is clearly recognisable, for he kept copying himself. Anyone watching one of his films (including 'The Inn of the Sixth Happiness', 1958 as well) can soon exclaim: "That music is so familiar... Arnold's?" Mind you, this is not necessarily a critical remark on my part, I actually like him. 'Tunes of Glory', (1960) in particular.

How can you reverse those engines so quick like that without bringing the steam pressure down first? (Like what we see in the Titanic film)
@Shipwright1918 Жыл бұрын
It's really best to shut off steam first, but with a smaller engine it's less of a jolt than with the 4-story tall monsters in the Titanic, so you can get away with it. In this context it's what's called a "crash stop" so you need to reverse as quickly as possible.

@@ryantimm9748 Crash stops were possible on the Olympic Class liners but were only done in an absolute emergency since that’s a lot of wear on your engines and running gear. It also puts wear on the propellers since suddenly going from full ahead to full astern causes a lot of water cavitation around the props which translates to a lot of vibration. Olympic apparently performed a crash stop during the incident where she accidentally rammed and sank the Nantucket light ship. Titanic performed a crash stop test during her sea trials and I assume the other two Olympic Class liners did the same. It’s also worth noting that when Titanic was leaving Southampton, her wake broke the moorings of the liner SS New York. Captain Smith had the engines on Titanic quickly thrown into reverse to prevent the New York from being sucked into Titanic’s side, narrowly avoiding an early end to the voyage. I assume that would have been done as a crash stop type maneuver.

Yes! It's disgraceful that it isn't taught in all of the history books, but from 1939 to 1941 many Americans volunteered to serve when the fate of Britain, and the cause of freedom hung in the balance. We could have never gotten on without them. The best mariners in the world. All fine chaps, and good stout fighting men, to the man. Wouldn't have been able to win the war without them, and the guidance and support they provided. All of Britain owes a great debt to the United States. One which we could sadly never repay....
