With sea smoke billowing over the sides of the 1000 ft. American Century, she steamed into the Duluth-Superior Harbor as the crew deiced the deck on a below zero evening.
Hey to whomever is running this page and naming the videos, I think you're awesome, and ship nerds everywhere love this channel! I love you, happy holidays!!!
Never heard the double salute an welcome before. Usually just one time three long an two short.. I'm sure it's the great Paul the videographer. The filming is a beautiful sight to see. The cold water meeting the warmth of the bough is an amazing sight to see. My Dear Gramma would say no artist could paint that picture. Merry Christmas, Happy Days ahead we pray.
I'm a Ship Nerd,,,,,and as I watch this from a warm bed with my cat, I can't believe there's people out there, in these ships,, IN THE ICE COLD WATER,,,,,YIKES..stay safe and warm..
Really cool video! At the beginning, when the American Century is approaching the harbor entrance with those clouds swirling about it, it looks like a ghost ship emerging from the fog.
Amazing. Like the ship's bridge dressed up with holiday lighting. Easy to take for granted these folks who brave the cold and elements to deliver shipments..hope they stay safe and sound in their travels.
Thank you! Thank you! I absolutely love seeing all of the Great Lakes Ships coming and leaving the Harbor!! ❤❤ And wow!! 😍 The American Century is all lit up and decorated so beautifully!! I especially love seeing the crew preforming the deicing duties!! ❤❤❤ I really really love this channel!! Thank you Duluth Harbor Cam!!! Us Great Lakes Boat Nerds Absolutely Love This!!!! 😍🥰💙❤
First time seeing anything like this and i'm feeling blessed. Most folks have never seen anything like this. Hats off to the expert pilot of this city on the great lakes. ✌❤🙏 🇺🇸 Excellent tug job also.
I was born in Duluth, moved away when I was eight years old and never looked back.....untill recently. I have become somewhat obsessed with watching these videos. Thanks
Gorgeous night shot!! Love this! Merry Christmas to you, the channel master and to all the hard working harbor guys & tug guys! To everyone, a blessed Christmas.
Literally a brillaint idea that the lights on the bridge ends project the ships path on the water. No guesswork on where the ship is pointed. First time I've seen that.
We saw her come in on ships camera live. During more pleasant weather people who live in the Duluth area will stand along the sides of the ship channel to watch these huge ships come into the Duluth harbor. Often times the Ships Captain will give a salute with his ships horn. Merry Christmas everyone.
WOW it might have just been the camera angle, but, she looked like she was going to clip the edge of the pier at marker 9:04 to 9:08.. phew I was holding my teeth hard waiting for the crunch..

@@petercoull9082 The American Century is not a saltie, She is designed as such, and she has been working the upper Great Lakes all her life... They began changing the traditional Great Lakes Style to the Ocean type a number of years ago.. Have a safe and Merry Christmas there Peter...
For a minute, I was like... "deiced" What's "deiced"? ....Oh. :D These ships are breathtaking. Ever since I spent a week on the St. Lawrence seaway 14 years ago, the breathtaking size of these large vessels has held a place in my conscious that makes me appreciate them in a way I never could if I hadn't seen them with my own eyes. I saw one or two 800 footers, so adding another 200' to the visual is hard to fathom!
I have an aunt and uncle that lived in Duluth for several years and would take us down almost every time we visited and it was so cool watching these ships come in and it's amazing how loud the horns are in person
Having been in the navy I’ve heard a few ship horns but I can tell that was the throatiest one. I would love to have that one mounted on my house and everytime these kids drove by with their bass thumping garbage rattling my windows give them a couple toots and see how they like it.
Those cameras are on 24/7, send a ship. I've seen a Norwegian freighter built in 1949 and some from the Mediterranean countries but never yet a British. Perhaps they're more comfortable up in Canada
The Soo Locks close on the 15Th of January so that closes shipping on Lake Superior, The lower lakes which is Michigan, Huron and Erie have some shipping then the locks open again on 15th of March.

Agreed! 💯

It's run by the museum which is just off camera great place to visit if ya ever find yourself in Duluth
I live here and son can name every ship just by the sound of the horn 😊
How can somebody not find this over the top amazing
Wow that looks amazing but oh so cold. Stay warm, Duluth!
The shadow of the structure on the ship's deck in the "smoke" ahead of the ship is eerie

saw this coming in; beautiful but eerie, seeing the 'smoke' curling over the deck.
Loved the Christmas lights and all the calls back and forth. Thanks DHC as always!! Oh and the salutes!!
And the beautiful photography. Merry Christmas.
This is absolutely other-worldly.😳
I love seeing all the ships get festive this time of year! And that dramatic fog, wow! What a great entrance for the American Century. :)

Hollywood could not do any better! This is absolutely beautiful.
the signals sound different in that bitter cold, especially the bridge horn.
Ghostly apperition in the darkness, bright lights shining a way in, best film footage of 1000 footers I have seen.
Thank you!
Thank you!

Thank you Duluth Harbor Cam!!!
Us Great Lakes Boat Nerds Absolutely Love This!!!! 😍🥰💙❤
Gotta love those people standing in “feels like -30 weather”! That’s dedication!
We are true Nords lol. We grow hearty in Duluth lol
Have not been In Duluth In a long time loved watching the saltys and the ore boats come in the 1000 fts are so cool
First time seeing anything like this and i'm feeling blessed. Most folks have never seen anything like this. Hats off to the expert pilot of this city on the great lakes. ✌❤🙏 🇺🇸 Excellent tug job also.
I liked the radio chatter! Gives a whole lot better perspective as to what is happening!
All of videos are great but this one takes the cake! Outstanding 👍🏻🎥💯
I love seeing these ships cruise by the walkway, especially at night with their running lights and such. Beautiful!
This has to be the coolest video you have ever posted. All are great but this is one I have had to watch several times
I was born in Duluth, moved away when I was eight years old and never looked back.....untill recently. I have become somewhat obsessed with watching these videos. Thanks
it sounds like it turned into a big meth town now.
The best entrance yet! Thank you captain and crew. And thank you cam operators. Merry Christmas!
Amazing video, thanks for sharing! And two salutes? Bonus!
This channel is awesome, and *wow* is American Century gorgeous coming in to harbor. Happy holidays, all!!
Wow, absolutely incredible footage. Thank you for sharing.
Gorgeous night shot!! Love this! Merry Christmas to you, the channel master and to all the hard working harbor guys & tug guys! To everyone, a blessed Christmas.
Would have loved to have been in the lighthouse for that arrival what a sight (in spirit I've already moved to Duluth harbor)🤗🥰😇
Absolutely stunning images, thank you so much!!!
The shadows cast in the sea smoke almost look like a hologram at times.
Yeah! The structure on the bow was being reflected down in front of her within the "smoke". So cool!
Completely impressed and in great admiration of the hearty souls dressed in their winter best for this! It feels cold just watching it.
Amazing, almost mesmerizing footage! A keeper for sure! Thanks for sharing!!!
Well that's impressive as hell. Awesome job and Kudos to all involved !!! Five stars ***** .
Thank you for these videos I miss home
exceptional videography. A real visual treat.
Can you imagine working on the Great Lakes 100 years ago, 200 years ago?
Literally a brillaint idea that the lights on the bridge ends project the ships path on the water. No guesswork on where the ship is pointed. First time I've seen that.
Looks like the ship was coming out of a worm hole...
Wow that turn looked close !
We saw her come in on ships camera live. During more pleasant weather people who live in the Duluth area will stand along the sides of the ship channel to watch these huge ships come into the Duluth harbor. Often times the Ships Captain will give a salute with his ships horn. Merry Christmas everyone.
the horn is for the bridge, but its supposed to be 2 long three short. but they simplify it with one long and two short.
What a big ship amazing ship
1000 footer
Merry Christmas 🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄🎄☃️❄️❄️🎄☃️🎄☃️🎄☃️🎄❄️🎄❄️🎄❄️☃️🎄☃️🎄☃️❄️🎄❄️🎄
I love the way the ships all seem to decorate for Christmas.
Boy that looks cold! Great video!
Those at harbor cam video creators lots of thanks for the beautiful video’s over last year.🇳🇱🇳🇱
Made my Christmas. Love the close up of the turn from the back end. Merry Christmas and keep warm.
Been to Duluth a few times over the past 30 years and just love seeing those big freighters. New Englander here Thanks
WOW it might have just been the camera angle, but, she looked like she was going to clip the edge of the pier at marker 9:04 to 9:08.. phew I was holding my teeth hard waiting for the crunch..
It couldn’t have missed it by much
Being a “ Saltie” that is excellent ship handling of such a long ship. The “square” stern lends itself for quick turns.
@@petercoull9082 She's not a saltie, Great Lakes freighter only. WAY too big to get thru the Welland Canal! Happy Holidays 🎄

I bet the inside hull is sweating to beat the band as cold as it is
Thanks for watching captain and shift commander LABonte. Merry Christmas 🎄AMERICAN CENTRY
Totally Awesome 👌
Liked watching the Century, Spirit, and Integrity come into US Steel. Turning on a dime in the middle of the Detroit River.
L'arrivée d'un vaisseau fantôme ! Merci pour ces images fantastiques !
Un grand bonjour depuis le nord de la France !🙋🏼♂️
Amazing true spectacle.
awesome video, best wishes from the UK,I really enjoy the content.
This could be the opening scene of a scary movie. Spooky as fook. Great footage
This is great, thank you and happy holidays!
This is an awesome video! Love the horn

Icy Cauldron. That sounds like a Stephen King horror movie.
Thank you American Century! Merry Christmas 🎄
Wonderful images. Thank you. Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year.
Wow , now THAT'S winter on the Great Lake Superior !! 🎄 Happy ,Happy Holidays 🤶 Merry Christmas to All 🎅 Healthy & Prosperous New Year 2023 🎉✨
Nice shot from WI side
I have an aunt and uncle that lived in Duluth for several years and would take us down almost every time we visited and it was so cool watching these ships come in and it's amazing how loud the horns are in person
This is so relaxing I miss hearing the horn blast in the harbour I miss Duluth I think I'm going to have to visit again soon
Flipping fantastic!
Great video !!
F#cking amazing. Beautiful!
Amazing!

Lol
I used to live up there when I was a kid and let me tell you it is very cold.
You know it’s down right cold when the water is smoking
soooo cool!
Magische Eindrücke....Danke
Great video.
Beautiful!
The ship is like a ghost coming out of the fog
This is Beautiful.
For a minute there
I could swear that Boat wasn't moving. Hmm
great shot
Looks like a ghost ship.
Amazing cool and spooky footage all at the same time - WOW
Bet those Men are glad they made it in before today's Storm!
Magnificent ❤
Merry Christmas !!
Is there any chance we could have a video of one of these majestic ships coming into the harbour, thanks, Trev in the UK
Those cameras are on 24/7, send a ship. I've seen a Norwegian freighter built in 1949 and some from the Mediterranean countries but never yet a British. Perhaps they're more comfortable up in Canada
That thumbnail would make for an AWESOME calendar image, if not a computer wallpaper.
Merry Christmas 🎅 🎄
Really, really nice video. How cold was it the evening this was filmed?
Looks Coolldddd!!
Wicked looking and delightful...just like some MN women I know 🙏😎
I'm from Delaware and I never understood why a lot of US merchant ships are registered out of Wilmington De. Anyone on here know ?
Possibly for business purposes (?) Lots of corporations have their headquarters in Delaware, might be something to do with taxes.
Tax reasons I believe Delaware has more ships registered there than the rest of the country
Do you remember winter 78-79 when Buffalo got over 10 foot of snow?
very eerie,
looks Like a Scary Movie.
Local Duluth wiseguy yells at the dudes hosing down the ship..'Yo', ya' ever de-ice each other?'
With it being so cold and ice is forming how long before this current shipping season ends and they all take their winter break? Any ideas?
The Soo Locks close on the 15Th of January so that closes shipping on Lake Superior, The lower lakes which is Michigan, Huron and Erie have some shipping then the locks open again on 15th of March.
Amazing video. Merry Christmas to all the great Lake crews and those bringing these sights and sounds. Thank you.
Did the American Century do two master salutes, or was that just audio from the first one playing again?
Audio was repeated.
