I have always loved Tugboats ever since I was a little kid. Definitely the hardest working boat in the harbor. Sturdy and strong.

[@TimBatSea]

Thank you for watching Mellissa. CUOTO

[@lindagsmith3281]

Melissa, did you get intrigued with tugboats from reading Little Toot? My dad wrote and illustrated the picture book and it’s been in press for 83 u years! Dad’s no longer here but he’d be thrilled if the mischievous tug got your love! ❤❤

[@billysmith5721]

@@lindagsmith3281 my dad and grandfather were tugboat captains.i rode on a few boats

[@logit1162]

I loved that book, I haven't thought about it for years till I read your comment. My hat is off to your father.

You are not fooling me you just didn’t want to walk up all theses steps to the bridge. I really enjoyed that tour.

Love the "technicals" and by no means "boring".

[@lardo666]

There's a definite change of 'feel' with the Puerto Rico operations - you are now an offshore vessel, ready to be at sea for weeks without resupply (and needing to handle whatever the weather throws at you). On the 'spontaneous combustion' - really worth reminding people that some paints (e.g. using linseed oil) harden by a chemical reaction with oxygen - not just the solvent evaporating. That reaction makes heat, and goes faster when hot. Thus piles of paint covered rags have large surface area (more heat) - insulate each other (more heat) - get hot (react faster - more heat). And that can progress to fire. Add in some tropical sunshine on the locker and that extinguisher is a really good idea (as is an external paint locker) Please thank your bosses for permitting these videos - I doubt any viewers will contract your company to tow them, but I'd bet there will be suitable people apply to work at sea because you showed what it's like.[For the bean counters - that's a direct reduction in recruitment costs due to Tim's videos🙂] You take a pride in running a safe happy ship - it shows - and it reflects well on your company. Fair weather - good luck in the 2022 hurricane season

[@TimBatSea]

Thank you very very much. I appreciate that more than you know. CUOTO

[@heavyc5046]

Not to mention the hot thinner storied for clean up of epoxy paints

[@ClassXIRoads]

Good morning Captain Tim, I couldn't help but laugh when you forgot what you were talking about right after you explained slippage,, we all have a little slippage as we age, I also seem to have the shrinking and widening thing happening. Thanks for the great tour, when I was in the Navy they always said there is nothing that salt water and sailors can't F**k up. so I understand about the light rust you had. I have been spending some time watching tow boats on the Mississippi river,, they get mad if you call them tugs.lol. Again thank you for taking the time to make and edit these videos. CUOTO

[@TimBatSea]

😂😂😂😂😂😂 Thank you very much for watching and supporting both channels James. Yes, my mind suffers from it's own slippage. 😂. CUOTO

[@njseashorechas2698]

Fascinating stuff! I often see the different Types of tugs in the Sany Hook and Philly areas but always wondered about the mechanics and what was involved with making the run. Great job explaining things. Better than any show on TV, Thanks!

[@TimBatSea]

Thank you very much for watching and for your kind words. CUOTO

[@henrymp6295]

Tim regarding height as we progress to obsolescence, I once was 5'10" and now am 5'8.75". This proves Newton's law and illustrates that gravity sucks.

[@TimBatSea]

[@bobbiemitch]

Thanks for the tour. Being an old Navy vet, I could almost smell the fuel and oil.

[@TimBatSea]

Thank you for watching Robert. CUOTO

[@frogmorepipester7490]

New Sub. I worked on a pilot boat back in 90’s.(Port Royal, S.C.) After I dropped the Pilot off I would hang around, and, go out on the tug (1960’s)for extra wage. Extra wage would most always workout except for times when the Custom Agents would show up to inspect a “Bulk” hauling concrete mix from South America.(looking for Kakain). That would be a long day of sitting around. Love your Channel.

[@cageordie]

I saw a large Norwegian stern trawler in Mallaig years ago that had stuffed the bow into a big wave. It bent in the steel below the bridge windows and broke them too. My friend Alister MacDonald worked for the ship yard there that fixed up the local fishing fleet. He said they'd lost all the bridge electronics and also took tons of water down the companionway and flooded the galley and damaged the equipment there too.

[@ThumperKJFK]

HOLA Tim: Never ever have I found any of your talks about stuff Boring, even if your going over things we already know from your older videos. And not to worry about the scratch. my eyes got used to it and did not notice it. 👍👍👍

[@JimAllen-Persona]

I just honestly thought it was something on his shirt that he had to obscure.. especially after that intro. I didn’t even see it but once I found it can’t unsee it like those dots in the corner on a movie. Guess I should chip in for a replacement 😂

[@TimBatSea]

Thank you for watching and for the kind words Gregory. I really appreciate that. CUOTO

[@TimBatSea]

Thank you for watching Jim. I spent the better part of yesterday trying to buff out the problem. Haven't tested it yet. Crossing fingers. CUOTO

[@ThumperKJFK]

@@TimBatSea Ohhh No No Tim. We at the TV station would send the Lens down to maintenance shop at the station. I had asked the techs once How I could clear the scratch of. They told me Don't even try if you don't have the right tools, and that would be Lens polishing liquids of the Right grade. if you have the wrong grade and don't follow the proper way for buffing out. you can make if worse. I once F** up a $10,000 tv camera lens once. trying to get that scratch off something off it. The guy's down in the shops of the station got it right. lessen learned for me. LOL 😂 CUOTO

[@pascalcoole2725]

Hi Tim, Stumbled on your video's a few weeks ago. My first impression: "Man thay guy loves his job !" I was kinda impressed how complex a big tugboat has to be, but of course as you stated, you have to be able to be at sea for three weeks at a time, and it's a big ship. Me for my selve, i passed for my boatinglicence two a couple of weeks ago (thats for non commercial use only ! not to become a sailor !) Meaning I'm allowed to sail boats up to 25 Meters (abt 80Ft) worldwide. Funny fact is, I have never set foot on any boat and defenitely would not know how to deal with it. Anyhow.. your video's are highly educational. Regards from the South of the Netherlands

[@TimBatSea]

Thank you for watching Pascal. Congratulations on passing your test. I am surprised that sea time was not part of the licensing process. CUOTO
