Mega Yacht Tow with Cape Ann Towing

[@rsmith.182]

Great video and very skillful boat handling. Did the yacht use a bow thruster to assist moving the fwd end to the dock? Can't even imagine how much money is floating in the water down there but it employs many people to service all the rich folks toys. Noticed that the yacht is registered in the Caymen Islands, avoiding some US taxes I assume. Thanks for another great video and to Cape Ann towing.

Thank you for watching Russ. No. I do not believe the ship ever used it's thrusters. CUOTO

[@shaunolinger964]

Tim, this is awesome... I love watching you and your associates doing what you do. This one is especially fun... see, I built an RC tug that has towed me, my wife, and my daughter in our kayaks. A 35 lb, 3½ ft long tug pulling over 700 pounds. I have a video of it on my KZbin channel, "Tugboat "Atlantic" taking the load". I kept ventilating my azipod props until I got it fixed, but so far I have measured just over 9lbs bollard pull. There's a lot more there, but I haven't had a chance to try again recently. Anyway... watching you and Cape Ann Towing maneuver this yacht is a lot of fun. Mainly because I am learning how to do the same thing with my 17ft, 300 lb kayak coming on and off the dock. I'm actually learning tricks on here of how to do it better myself!

That's great Shaun. I'll have to check it out. CUOTO

[@billmoran3812]

Fun look into the world of the rich and famous! Way back in the 70’s when I was in the Coast Guard in New London, we got a call from the Captain of the Yacht owned by the owner of Circus Circus casino in Las Vegas. They were going to dock at Mystic Seaport but were unfamiliar with the Mystic river and bridges. The Yacht was about 125 feet, so it was a challenge. I volunteered to ride along on my own time as a pilot. That was quite a fun trip. Barely inches to spare getting through the RT. 1 bridge. The yacht was incredible, and so were some of the young ladies aboard!

[@PillSharks]

Nice little job, although I really can’t see why the captain of the super yacht just doesn’t take a pilot (if there’s one for the area) and go up under her own steam, I would think she’s nearly as manoeuvrable as the tugs...I guess money is know object! Also, just a little thing I noticed, we normally cross our towing gear over which give you a slightly better angle... I guess with twin screw engines and big power they don’t worry too much, we do work like this with single screw boats so we need all the help we can get! Another great video anyway and looks like you had a great day for it, it’s normally blowing a bastard for us with rain...

[@TimBatSea]

Thank you for watching. I believe a pilot would cost much more than the two tugs on this job. And besides, having to stop for traffic or a problem in those areas would not be a good situation without tugs. And lastly, as Captain Day stated, it is so shallow that this ships propellers could stir up things off the bottom that could easily clog the intakes. CUOTO
