VTS Sector NY - Behind The Scenes Look at Vessel traffic Servie - ATC for Mariners

[@lolanatasha]

It's proven time and time again that our coasties are the best of the best. Thank you Capt Tim for letting us take a peek inside!

[@TimBatSea]

Thank you for watching Mark. They are a great bunch over there! CUOTO

[@johnleach7879]

TU for the tour, Tim. USCG is unique in the US Services in cycling officers (except specialists like pilots or legal) thru all facets of the service: Icebreakers, lightships, rescue, testing & development, admin, logistics, VTS, even PR. I had two different T&D Officers on that lighthouse automation in the 60's, which I've mentioned. Little wonder why USCG gets more funding every year than they request. JL

[@funsmasher7018]

In the early 2000s I was on a flight, and my seat mate was a pilot being ferried to a plane in our destination. I had a hand held GPS, a Garmin, and was tracking the flight in real time. The pilot said that gizmo was better than what they flew with in the cockpit, and he was going to get one for his flight bag, as a backup...He also showed the Rand McNalley street map atlas he carried so he could point out interesting sights to his passengers.

Tim, Thanks for sharing this video. I have a VTS story of my own. I was sailing my 28’ Hunter in the Buttermilk at 2 am. I was contacted on 13 by a tug boat captain on channel 13 and asked to turn to channel 14 and contact VTS. They informed me of a large tow coming down the east river. I told them I was taking in my sail, turning on the motor and heading back to my home port at Liberty Landing Marina. It was nice to know that they are there and will contact civilian vessels to help keep us safe as well. Again, Thanks for sharing. Great video.

Capt Tim, Great Video! Thank you for the behind the scenes of the Crew at VTS. When I see videos of yours and the workings of NY Harbor, it’s great to see the traffic control. Do other ports have VTS? Ports like Philadelphia for the Delaware River and Delaware Bay?

[@TimBatSea]

Thank you for watching Roger. I believe there are something like 13 different VTS stations around the country. Philadelphia and the Delaware river have something like it called Philadelphia Maritime and run by the pilot association but is more for tracking and reporting tonnage moved to the government to secure funding for dredging.

Interesting, ATC tells you exactly where to go but VTS cannot tell you where to go.

[@TimBatSea]

Thank you for watching. That's because sailors know where they're going.... Lol. Just kidding. CUOTO

[@markelwell393]

It could be because that aircraft move way faster than vessels and not every boat on the harbor checks in. VTS cannot see jet skis, smaller boats, and anything without AIS on their screens also they are not required to check in like aircraft with the ATC. They leave this up to the seamanship skills of mariners with the ever-changing (can be very slow) marine theater and conditions.

[@NYHalfassprepper]

Rollins was the name prior to Duraport. Standard Tank was next door. Some of us old timers also use Berman's. Old school dock books are still available. All local mariners should have one. www.lulu.com/shop/tony-acabono/docks-of-ny/paperback/product-16069930.html?page=1&pageSize=4

Another old Navy guy here (Hospital Corpsman). As my shipmate said, Bravo Zulu Tim. I wish I had access to videos like these back about 15 years ago when I was running a repair barge on The Lake of the Ozarks. New York Harbor is a bit more intense 😉 but the principles are the same. Knowing the weather , your surroundings, equipment and as with here, a dammed up river, water levels. I can relate to using the wind to help the job ( pushing docks ). And we have Coasties here as well 😎 Love this channel Tim. This is a great find 😎

My office window faced Gov Island with a great view of the big Radar mast for VTS and the building which was there home. I also had my two VHF marine radios on the desk tuned to the two freq. Scanners were not good receivers back then in the early 70's. It was also a sad time when I watched the Move of VTS off of Gov. Island. So today in Aug 2021 I am just finding out where there new home is. Not so new now. LOL This was such a way cool look at the behind the Harbor communications and safety scenes.

Ahoy Captain Tim. ⚓I'm fairly new to your channel and kept hearing you talk about this place. This was worth watching! As I've said before in my comments on other videos I know a few people around Baltimore who work for port operations that I've met through my antique furniture restoration business. One of them is a father son team who work traffic control out of their basement in Towson. I met them probably 20 or 25 years ago while on an estimate for "Mom". I never gave it much thought about how traffic was handled until then. I was telling a another friend of mine who's father was a bay pilot so I took him along one day with permission of course. Wow, what a interesting conversation those two had. Chip was in training to relieve his dad when he retired but unfortunately that didn't pan out. Well I could ramble on all day about this subject so I'll cut it short but I gotta say this sure is an interesting field to work in. I suppose it wasn't in my cards to land a job working on and around boats, just restoring them. That's a satisfying job in it's own right.

You talk with the watch guy about order of passing information ... as a computer programmer, this is one of the sorts of things that can be critical to tell us when making a user interface --- do you want tab order to follow display position, which is typical, or do you have a particular order you want the tab (or enter, etc) key to flow through the data entry fields. (this is also one of the many reasons I despise making user interfaces).
