Test Your Knowledge! - The Great Lakes Ship Horn Quiz

[@1Long2Short]

I just noticed I didn't include a ranking for getting 12 questions correct. Let's call that "Chief Cook." The cook is the second most important position on the ship, after all!

[@markfleser]

That’s what I got! I’ll call it 12.5 because I knew it was one of the VanEnkevorts, but guessed the opposite one. 🤓

[@1Long2Short]

Yeah, the VanEnkevorts have some odd horns.

[@1Long2Short]

@@ILikeGT_101 I had planned on doing more of these, but they take so long to make and the first one didn’t get that many views. 😕

[@grandmabiscuits]

only got 7 of them, but for someone who only recently got into it and just more so likes the fact that “ooh loud noise” i’m pretty satisfied.

I Got All Of The Boat Horn Questions Right!

I ACED IT, but I think I have an addiction

[@1Long2Short]

A good addiction, apparently!

[@hunterdaenzer]

15/15! To easy!!

[@1Long2Short]

Too easy for some, too difficult for others. So maybe just right!

[@BlueWaterRailfan]

I got all 15! I kinda lucked out since I've heard salutes from most of these ships myself! I would really love to see you make more of these!

[@april906outdoors3]

This was fun!! First officer here. 😊

[@cris_261]

8/15 Ashamed to admit that I missed the Anderson. Good thing you didn't include the Wilfred Sykes, because if I missed that one..... 🫢😁 But on the upside, I got the Alpena, the Oberstar, and the Clarke, so I'm not totally useless.😄 Fun quiz! Thanks for putting it all together, and I'll have to pay more attention to your videos.

[@1Long2Short]

I nearly included the Sykes, but decided not to make the quiz too long. If I wanted to be tricky, I could have included a single horn salute and a double horn salute from the Sykes. 😉

[@leehanna4929]

My wonderful wife thinks I’m a boatnerd because I like to watch these videos. Got 4 with 3 guesses. Now I can tell her that I’m far from a nerd! 😁

[@1Long2Short]

Glad to be of service! 😆

[@northstarstatepolitics1652]

I got 15 of 15. I think I have problems.

[@oceansoul3694]

Best comment ever~ hilarious!

[@1Long2Short]

Not if your problem is watching too many of my videos! 😉

[@tabriff3832]

I’ve finished coiling the lines, hand me the mop… It was all worthwhile, because I did get the Alpena, and was rewarded with a warm fuzzy feeling. She’s a classic in every way.

[@1Long2Short]

That’s the best one to get correct! Some would say it’s the only one worth knowing. 😆

[@tabriff3832]

Just realised it seems like I only got one… I think I got four, but to be honest with myself, I’ll say two. I got the Barker, of course, and I’ll say the other two were educated guesses. Hats off to the Captains. It would be easier if the horns matched, but some heavyweights sing soprano😉

[@waynesell3681]

Fun stuff! Really like the way you put the video together!

[@1Long2Short]

Thanks! I struggled with how to format this. Glad it turned out ok.

[@waynesell3681]

@@1Long2Short Nailed it! Alot of guessing on my end!!

[@BL-jt3qt]

Aaaargh...... I 'guessed' at 5 right with the Barker being the only one I knew for sure. A fun post with a great selection of clips. Thank you

[@1Long2Short]

I figured the Barker would be most people’s easiest guess! Can’t mistake that one for anything else. 🙂

[@raeisthe41]

I managed to second guess myself into thinking it was his sister the Miner lmao

[@danielmorris3687]

😱I only got 7 right and to be honest a couple were guesses 😁 The Anderson fooled me because like the Clarke I usually expect to hear Masters from her. This was a cool and fun diversion from the norm. 👍✌

[@1Long2Short]

That’s a decent score! Yeah, maybe I should have included a master salute from the Anderson. 🙂

[@logandavis1154]

12👍👍👍

[@oceansoul3694]

I am embarrassed, I thought I knew something but no, what arrogance and ignorance...I'm a land lover and boatnerd cross...humbly saluting@northstarstatepolitics and genuflecting to our esteemed Leader, 1long2short. I'm going to hide under my rock now and replay ALL your videos. Twice. This has to be the bestest quiz ever!!!

[@1Long2Short]

I wouldn’t be embarrassed at all. I knew the answers up front (obviously), but then started second-guessing myself why I heard the salutes without seeing the ships. 🙂

[@nomadictraveller8580]

I got 14 only missed one guess I’m the captain now

[@1Long2Short]

Still pretty good!

[@haileblonigen]

11/15, I got some studying to do!

[@1Long2Short]

That's not bad at all!

[@bettygilmore611]

I can't believe I know some of the shios horns😂. Thanks so much for that . Lovevthe horns and the ships

[@1Long2Short]

I’m not too surprised, since you watch a lot of my videos. 🙂 And I’m grateful that you do!

[@bettygilmore611]

@1Long2Short I find your video and sound a great way to wind down at night. I love ships, the sounds, the birds et all. Navy brat and it stayed in my soul.

[@GreatLakesStateProductions6708]

This is fun you should do more of these lol. I only got 2 wrong so I’m a captain! 😂

[@1Long2Short]

Nice job! I’ll probably make another in the future.

[@genefogarty5395]

Yikes, I failed miserably. 4/15, I'll try and do better Captain!

[@1Long2Short]

Don’t worry… it means you are normal! 😆

[@MultiPurposeReviewer]

Wow, I did terrible. Barely broke 50% with 8 correct, and I even missed two that I saw in person (CSL Assiniboine and the Clarke)! My defense is that the Assiniboine's horn was almost a ship's length away from me when they sounded it, so I heard a much more muffled, deeper sound rather than the full brunt; and your video of the Clarke was taken from the other side of the canal, with a much more pronounced echo that I didn't experience, which made it sound much more like a 1000 footer (to me at least). I should have known from the master salute though.

[@1Long2Short]

I thought the Assiniboine might trip up a few people. The squeak at the start of each horn blast is something to listen for. I was going to include a captain’s salute for the Clarke to be consistent with the other ships in the video… but she only does master salutes in recent visits. 😁

[@Wagonman5900]

9/15 I'm surprised I got that many considering I had to guess on a few and flat out missed on a few more.

[@1Long2Short]

Good job! 🙂

[@atsf47legit]

I mainly know only the steamers, but i got 12 correct, one of those was defiance. I actually believed that you'd put fast Eddie on there even though she's in layup just for good fun. overall good video though👍

[@JC-rl1ul]

I got 8! Pretty much all guesses. Also for anyone who doesn’t know the captains do something called a captains salute or a master salute. A captain salute is 1 long horn and 2 short but a master salute is 3 long and then the 2 short ones.

[@bigkemp8804]
