The Fastest I've Ever Seen a Ship Dock at Two Harbors! The Saginaw cruising into Two Harbors for Ore

...and still gave a salute in the middle of it, how about that. You must have been cold out there on the breakwater, you earned that one.

[@PaulScinocca]

Thanks, it was a sharp wind on the breakwall

[@SteveMikre44]

That's an amazing demonstration of skill and experience...⚓📣👍

[@PaulScinocca]

Indeed it was!

[@skycvg]

Another fantastic capture from the "Two Harbors Specialist"! She's still nimble after all these years.

[@PaulScinocca]

Indeed she is!

[@60trickpa]

WOW that Captain has done that a few times. Thank you Paul for sharing

[@PaulScinocca]

I agree! That was some pretty impressive docking.

[@gregmctevia5087]

Very nice. Love videos from Two Harbors as ship spotters don’t go out there too often. Great job.

[@PaulScinocca]

Thank you very much! I am among the ones not going there often...

[@gregmctevia5087]

@PaulScinocca The only one who does with any regularity is 1L2S. I think Ellsworth sent 1 or 2 pieces.

I remember last summer I just missed seeing the Michipecoten in Marquette. She was heading out when I got her pictures. Then I just happened to check the marine traffic app and seen the Saginaw was in Marquette this summer. Let’s just say that was the fastest I ever got in the car and got to Marquette to see her lol Then last month I caught her again with the Manitowoc coming in. Neat being there at night with all the lights on the ore dock and the ships. Sent pictures to Cedric lol

[@PaulScinocca]

Nice!

[@billford1223]

Great video Paul! You weren't kidding on how close they got to the breakwall

[@PaulScinocca]

I was amazed, never seen a ship come in like that, and so well.

[@jamesnelson6980]

Built in Manitowoc, 1953, still sailing strong, folding hatches (last on the lakes) and all.

[@PaulScinocca]

That they are!

[@pamelatheado6484]

So interesting. Thanks

[@PaulScinocca]

I'm glad you enjoyed it!

[@jmt8706official]

I really like the modern super freighters, but this older style ship is still the bees knees.

[@PaulScinocca]

I do agree, also been a bit since I've heard that

[@audreyjohnson4599]

That's a crew that knows their ship and what she can do.

[@PaulScinocca]

No doubt!

[@coldspring624]

The wind was his friend today

[@clairewyndham1971]

The best I can do with my little 4 door "grocery getter" is to park at Walmart between the 2 yellow lines.

[@PaulScinocca]

Lol 😆

[@brettfavreify]

Almost looks like, crank it hard left and let the wind blow you into the dock.

[@PaulScinocca]

That could be! Either way it was well done !
