Enjoy the video ! - Auta a dopravní prostředky
many thanks - high proficiency in the manoeuvre and the video recording and rendering !
+ufolev Thanks !
another glorious clouded day in the port of antwerp , i have seen many of those in my days traversing the port
Great work with the video!
Greetings from Finland there Antwerp and really good videos you've done with the tug and the videos are very clear and there is nothing to complain about movies, image quality at all.
I like it it how organize the video in section in the description love the vid
Hope you get the chance to do more of these in 2017!
Does the towing line ever snap under certain pressure? Car ships can hold thousands of vehicles.
I envy your job.
I would absolutely love to do this as a career. Not to far away from the port of baltimore either
Good side step....
Any more uploads I enjoy your clips
j'aime beaucoup tes main
I really enjoy your vids. Do you plan any for 2018?
rattley and sqeaky bring back the 7200 tug so smooth
+peter james What do you mean with that? :)
+ShippingHarbors what i meant by that was the tug you were using was a bit rattly and and squeaky where as the 7200 hp tug is very quite and all you can hear is that beautiful engine thats all super video as usual no offence intended
Haha yeah I know what you mean ! That irritating canary squeaky sound is the sound that you mean I think. At this moment I'm processing a new dual camera video and this time I killed the canary :-D it's produced by one of the exhaust protection grids, and with the next video I tied that grid down so it makes no more squeaky sound.
what this video that tug number to times when you turn the tug was reflected in the 31.
I have been puzzling about V.S. prop equipped vessels or the ones that you work on.
Is there a considered Bow & Stern or is it only labelled that way according to the deck machinery mounted or perhaps underwater hull shape?
Can you push or pull any harder in either direction?
Does question become moot/irrelevant?
It seems like I see the vessel manoeuvring primarily toward what I considered to be the stern (by the engine exhaust).
The videos are excellent.
Thanks.
+David Oxland There is a bow and stern. In the video you see the stern of the tug. The stern of the tug is much lower then the bow. The bow can take larger waves for example :) These tugs are also called 'tractor tugs'. The propellers are,mounted in the front of the ship and when sailing forward most of the tug is pulled thru the water. When pulling in forward direction there is a bit more power available then pushing astern because of the propeller settings. I hope you understand what I mean.... Explaining this in English is not so easy ;)
What are those yellow buttons?
geweldige film weer, ik geniet er van en is dit allemaal in Ijmuiden an Amsterdam? ga zo door
+reptilemusic55 Nee hoor, dit is in Antwerpen ;)
+ShippingHarbors Okee sorry ja ik ben een gepensioeneerder vrachtwagen chauffer he dan ben je gewoon de weg kwijt-lol , maar erg leuke filmpjes zeker wel, hoor dat je er nog veel maakt
Hoeveel bemanning zit er op een sleepboot? Sorry voor de gekke vraag, maar moet je naar de zeevaartschool om een sleepboot te besturen e.d. ?
"morning cello" sounds like something to suggest to your wife though
36:16 eat my smoke and gimme that rope!
Wich engine is it ?
Is that 7200 HP
Nasty weather that day, eh?
Yeah, bit of wind but not awesome levels. I think 6-7 bft
How often are the boats out of the water in dry dock for maintenance? I think showing people what the Voith drive looks like would be interesting.
Every few months the boats get a small maintenance, but it depends on the work and those periods are always different.Robert Hale

these controls don't make any sense.
