The Benjamin Noble Mystery

[@LudicrousTorpedo]

To me, the Daniel J. Morrell being the last ship to see the Benjamin Noble before the waves overtook her was probably a foreshadowing of her own fate decades later.

I love it when you cover disappearances on the Great Lakes. Brings me back to when I was just a kid, staring at an old map of shipwrecks on the lakes and seeing those that only had points where they were last seen. Keep going!

[@stacypeterson3685]

Wow the picture of the ship was incredible! Definitely looked overloaded

[@DFAMPODCAST]

Your channel is amazing and your a true artist. Your ability to breathe life into the tragic stories of these great ships is truly a gift! Living on the lakes makes these videos even more amazing. Swimming in the waters, knowing that sometimes the hulk of one of these vessels is nearby under the water is wild too!

I am so happy to wake up to this first thing. Thank you Big Old Boys!🎉

<a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="319">5:19</a> For a second I thought the man in the boat was throwing something at the ship, for being so close to him. <a href="#" class="seekto" data-time="1247">20:47</a> This is ever accurate now, as it was then. Managers don't see the horror or risk, and can say whatever on paper, even if it isn't true, should be punished severely, for putting people's lives last, and their profits first.

Great to have a new vid from B.O.B. for listening while doing Saturday morning chores 👌🏻 thanks sir!

[@juanrambo7634]

These videos are great. Thank you for producing them. Info without bullshit is hard to find

[@rightmadmod9416]

I was stunned how immense the Great Lakes are. Like being on the sea… amazing!

Greed and Hubris sank many ships.

I'm from Michigan grew up on lake St. claire, can still remember where I was when the FITS went down😢

[@scottdunn9087]

Yes!

[@Falloutfanforever-b5h]

You and Songs of the Great Lakes are my favorite channels!!! 🎉😁

"But the Noble's managers were eager as possible to deliver as much as they could on this first trip..." Once again, decisions made by people who aren't at the sharp end of the stick.

[@mssixty3426]

Just what I needed this morning, something to listen to and glance at while working in the kitchen👏🏼😄

[@evolveausevolveaus]

Thank you as always B.O.B's for the upload . Hello B.O.B gang, happy christmas to everyone.

[@fhwolthuis]

Great video ❤

[@michaelsnodgrass1808]

Would love to get model plans for the Benjamin Noble. Any suggestions? Thanks

[@Ilix42]

It’s weird to think of a lake being as dangerous as the ocean, having lived in SoCal my whole life.

[@Roger-fs5yo]

Ya know? I know nothing about great lake shipping, but even I can see that thing is overloaded😦

[@irisandhoney]

Just woke up and there's a new Big Old Boats, don't mind if I do :)

[@jez6208]

Nobody tells tales of nautical nightmares as calmly as you old son. 😊

[@rmmvfazbearentertainment1054]

The fact that the S.S DANIEL J MORREL was the last ship to see the S.S BENJAMIN NOBLE is interesting 🤔

[@kamokev_92]

It was no fault of the captain for the loss of the ship back in those days, but the fault of the owners and their greed for making profit. The lessons of yesteryear came too late for many on the lakes. RIP to the lost brave sailors on the Great Lakes 🫡 Fair winds and following seas.

[@JonathanAlbright-wc9sh]

Jesus! Her anchor is touching the water in that photo! Corporate greed in its most supreme.
