- In this video, we are inbound to Port Jefferson Harbor on Long Island NY. It was a nice day, and being on the back watch, I was sleeping. But my Mate took us in and did a textbook perfect job. He also shares with you his entire thought prosses.
Dan, you demonstrated the single most important part of handling a vessel, something many pleasure boat operators never learn.: Take your time and let things work, it is much safer and usually easier if you do.
I have seen professional Captains that could use learning that lesson.
Thank you for watching Jaqui. Danny did a fantastic job didn't he? #CUOTO
@@TimBatSea yeah but its easy when your his captain. after all if the mate pays attention he wil learn from his captain and thank god you are a good one.
Tim, there is a certain sense you get when you are around a maritime academy graduate. Nothing obvious or overstated, but it is present. A feeling that this person knows more than they say, listens to everything said, and possesses the confidence to perform at a high level with a minimum of direction. That four years of maritime education and the associated license it provides is just what’s on the surface of these young people. Another stratus of character, mental toughness, persistence and leadership are instilled at the academies in preparation for a career at sea. This allows guys like Dan to take your instruction and knowledge and build on it way beyond what is expected. Every moment you invest in him will be repaid richly. Some day, Dan will think of his “Portuguese Captain” and it will be you!
Now that is the coolest comment I have ever gotten! I often think of exactly what you are saying. I will be that guy to him that my Portuguese Captain was to me, Thank you very very much!!!!!!! #CUOTO
#Timtrainedme
The young captain has a sence of humour 😂😂
Cudos on the handling and fine trimming of the balance against wind and current to him, and cudos to Tim for training absolutely well done ⚓🛥
You can see he's nervous... this is a real "make or break" moment. This isn't just showing you the skipper he is capable of doing what is needed... he's showing the world! Here it is a year later and he's still showing it, even though he has definitely moved on in his career.
Very nicely done, captain and hand both.
Mentorship in todays Marine Industry is so very important. Dan you did an excellent job, a real credit to both yourself and all your mentors that have assisted you along the way. Your excellent commentary helped explain all your maneuvers. You demonstrated excellent ship handling and judgement skills, well done!
Thank you for watching Todd. If you are new to the channel, welcome. I try to post new content every Tuesday. CUOTO
Nothing better in a career than passing knowledge down to younger ones. When your career is over, you will remember Danny and the others like him far more than the cargo you have moved. Good job, Captain!
Very True!! Thank you for watching George! #CUOTO
It is all Tim's fault! Nicely done and well described
LOL!!!!! Thank you very much David! #CUOTO
I was thinking exactly the same thing myself. Being able to calmly articulate what is going to occur and what is occurring, along with having the hands on skills to make it so, indicates a deep understanding and ability. A pleasure to watch!
@@jayminor9757 Thank you Jay!
How long till he get his own boat?
@@trollmarine4208 That has a lot to do with where and when they need him. I hope to be able to keep him on my crew for a little longer. #CUOTO
My boat is tied at the public marina right there and I have passed that barge and tug a thousand times!! I have always looked at the barge and tug and wondered what its like and now I feel like I got an inside view of something I never thought I would see. Thank you!! Amazing skill and I am forever gratefull for a view of the ride into Port from a completely different angel.

Been in and out of there a million times.. I live in port jeff.. grew up there. So much history there too..
Thank you for watching Derek. CUOTO
I went it Tampa this weekend and saw a tug and barge in dry dock. You were not kidding at all when people are surprised by the size of these big girls. Truly and amazing sight to see and know that people drive those things kudos to you and all tug captains!
Thank you very much Brett. #CUOTO
Surely I'm not the only one who has looked forward to watching this video all day and hits that thumbs up before the play button!
Excellent job and excellent video. Aside from the voice, we wouldn't have known whether it was Dan or Tim driving! I definitely hope we see more of him on the channel going forward!
Thank you very much Matt! I really appreciate it!!! #CUOTO
Tim, First, my wife and I sail a blowboat out of Groton, Ct. We've been from Marblehead to NYC, so love watching your videos of places we've been. Second. Better be careful, Dan might just start his own channel, he makes a good commentator. Third, as a retired USAF MSGT I can tell you that the performance of your subordinates reflects on your training of them. Job well done Tim!!! Third: Watching Dan enter Port Jeff reminds me of nights we've spent anchored under those very same smoke stacks. Forth: I consider watching your channel a form of CEU's (Continuing Education Units), helping me improve my own knowledge of commercial boat handling. Thank you. Dale Baker, MSgt, USAF (Ret), USCG 100 ton Master (Power, Steam, Sail, Towing)
Thank you for watching Dale and for the kind words. Thank you for your service as well. #CUOTO
So you are the guys that kept us up all night (when we were across on a mooring) running the barge's diesel pumps! But besides that Dan, great job and a great lesson in boat handling.
Thank you for watching and sorry about the noise. #CUOTO
@@TimBatSea I feel a bit daft asking this, but what does #CUOTO mean?
GREAT JOB DANNY! I appreciate greatly the talking through the maneuvers, and your skills in tight quarters. Excellent to see Port Jeff again! A wonderful insight to the view from the wheelhouse - HUGE THANKS from a longtime fan! ~__/)__*
Thank you so much. Yes, you were one of my first Subscribers! Danny did do a great job here didn't he? #CUOTO

This video is on-par with some training videos you see at some Maritime Schools.
Being in a hurry could be a huge environmental disaster with your cargo. Great job landing her so gently. Tim, you have good reason to be proud. I'm on the beautiful rock bound coast of Maine.

Yes, Dan did it !! . Lucky to have a mate with that much knowledge Tim.
Very lucky indeed! Thank you for watching. CUOTO
Great job, I love the fact that there's no rushing and just getting the job done safely.Tim has taught you well.
Thank you for watching Niall. #CUOTO
Great video...love the PNP view and Dan's narration in real-time. More, please!
Thank you for watching. I'll see if I can get him to do another one for us. CUOTO
Very enjoyable video. Amazing how the tug+barge is able to do a 180 deg spin in place with your mate making such tiny adjustments. Fascinating.
Thank you for watching Lars. Merry Christmas. CUOTO
Wow that is a new style Port Jefferson Ferry. I remember what it looks like back in the 60's and 70's, but that one is very new to me (I haven't been in Connecticut for decades).
Thank you for watching Mellissa. The PT Barnum was built in 1999. CUOTO
In the Netherlands we used to say ",
"Calmness and tranquility characterize the sailor".
Well executed. Best regards.
I love that! Thank you for watching Jan. #CUOTO
Welcome to my home port of Port Jefferson Harbor!!! I have lived here for over fifty years and know it waters well. My home is on the bluff on the western side (right side i video) of the harbor. Current (Tide) within the harbor peaks around a couple of knots of speed on the flood and ebbing tides, so not really a factor for us recreational boaters. Wind is another story and can blow hard coming over the bluffs. There is very little boat traffic in the winter months. just the ferry and oil and sand/gravel commercial operations. It is a narrow channel (I did spot the range markers and its lights in the video), which looks like a highway of boat traffic, especially on holidays like the 4th of July and Labor Day. Amazing that there are no apparent collisions with that mix of recreational and commercial traffic in the harbor. I do hear the ferry whistle blast a warning once in a while to those that don't follow the rules of the road. There is good coexistence of recreational and commercial boating in the harbor. The one complaint I would have is that with some frequency, oil barges are anchored a couple of hundred yards off my beach, sometimes for several days. Not comforting to have that much oil so close. Nice video. I enjoyed seeing the harbor from another perspective.
Thank you for watching Chaz. Wow. What a great place to live! Most of the guys that anchor up (commercial) off the beach only do so to catch the lee of the wind blowing off the shore making this less of a concern if anything where to go wrong. If the wind is blowing out if of the North, we usually go to newhaven and do the opposite thing for the same reason. #CUOTO
@@TimBatSea Hi .... yes, very good protection from the westerly wind with the bluff's protection. We would use it when we came back from fishing trips in our small boat. Instead of a straight line from the harbor entrance to the house, we would turn to starboard over to the bluff and follow it near shore to the house. It is as you know and as you stated, the barge anchorage is open to the north through north-east. They of course can be "nasty" winds. I can see using the north of us Connecticut shore and its hills for shelter
you could also explain it as wanting the power at the point of possible contact maybe? You did this Tim? Dang son.. Well done.!!! Danny is as smooth as glass with that boat.. a bit nervous, but still but a very able seaman.. Well done Danny.. on the tube with 10's of thousands watching you and bang.. perfect gentle touch! Like a feather falling to the ground.. You have a right to be proud of that boy Tim.. He is gonna make one heck of a captain.. Now if only he was Irish would it be better..
Thank you for watching! #CUOTO
Awesome!
I’ve been watching you guys go in and out of Port Jeff all summer!
Keep up the great work.
Thank you for watching and Welcome to the channel. Please consider Subscribing as I try to post new content every Tuesday. CUOTO
Been in and out of PJ harbor numerous times on both the ferry and my personal vessel. Like being in a time machine going back 20 years. I love these under way videos, but I think I told you that before. Good video Dan, Tim.
Thank you very much for watching. #CUOTO
Thanks for the video. I had been talking to a friend just 2days ago about fishing and lobstering out of Port Jefferson when I was a teenager. We used to catch stripped bass just outside the floating markers at the LILCO warm water outlet not far from the docks you landed at. I remember the giant tanker that broke in half in the late 1960's bow and stern sank to the bottom, leaving the cracked open portion sticking up. It was quite a scene to see into the interior tank sections of the hull
Thank you for watching David. Please consider subscribing as I try to post new content every Tuesday. Yes. That was an ITB. I was recently talking to another captain who was born in Port Jeff and we were talking about the report form that incident. #CUOTO

Hello Capt. TimB. I took the information you gave me about what years you attended Proctor. I did a little sleuthing and used the Internet to view the 1985 Senior Year Book, and there behold was your dapper senior class picture, mustache and all. I didn't grow my mustache
until my freshman year at UVM. I also retrieved some other facts while perusing the yearbook,
namely what the "B" stands for as well as the nickname. I'll keep this info a mystery. I liked
the episode when Dan pushed the loaded barge up into Port Jefferson. He did a great job
"slow and steady" gets the job done avoiding headlines. He is a cautious and deliberate
mariner. He has learned well and applies his skill accordingly. I would think a loaded
barge is easier to maneuver as opposed to an empty barge, probably because an empty
barge would be more vulnerable to tide, wind and currents making it trickier to handle. A
loaded barge is sluggish, but the weight can add forward momentum. This was an interesting
episode. The Elk River has a great crew. Take care.
Thank you for watching and for the fond memories of my time at Proctor. Please keep in mind that we try hard to not directly name tugs, companies or customers on here to keep me in good favor with my employer. #CUOTO
Danny - Welcome to the TimBatSea "YT family" As Tim trained you (and of COUSE it's his fault!), you are patient and explain what you are doing to us in a very easy to understand manner. Thank You! Double Thumbs Up!!
We eagerly look forward to TWO Video's a week now...lol
Thank you very much for watching! #CUOTO
I'd definitely be up to see a video from each! Lol. I know editing time, data, etc is a consideration, but Dan was an excellent complement to the channel. The only good thing about a Monday is knowing Tim uploads on Monday night!
@@matt_waddy Thank you very much for that Matt! #CUOTO
So nice to see you manage the momentum to keep her coming around fast enough to free up space for the inbound ferry but not so fast that the barge and dock go boink.
Thank you very much for watching and your support of the channel! Danny did a great job! #CUOTO
My home port is Norwalk Harbor, either on my own boat or on the ferry I've passed that dock more times than I can count, now I have an insiders perspective on how you guys do it. Congrats on Dan and Tim for the mentorship. Enjoy the LIS videos Tim, keep 'em coming.
Thank you for watching Stephen. Will do. CUOTO
great job Danny ...made it look easy ...thanks for sharing this TIM....your a good man for helping him out ...
Thank you for watching Adam. #CUOTO
I liked the hand simulation describing what the movements of the tug and barge would be.
Thank you for watching Gordon. #CUOTO
You guys are really good. Being a teacher I know what you mean about a proud minute. Graet video, thanks!

Thank you very much David. #CUOTO
Another great video. And a great skipering job, doing a text book job. Taking your time and just letting things happen.
Thank you for watching Dave. #CUOTO
Very nice !!! Thanks for sharing Capt.
Thank you for watching Tom. #CUOTO
Excellent. One of the way to tell if a Professional has a handle on things ... is if their talking/instructions to the crew are concise, calm and correct-as in this case. Great job-Im a ship guy and couldn't do this of course.
Lol. I'm sure you can Rick. Lol. Thank you for watching and for the kind words. CUOTO
Nice job! Thanks for sharing your thoughts.
Thank you for watching Richard. CUOTO
Nice work. Thanks for the descriptions. I was able to follow what you were doing very well. That was lots of manoeuvring to wind up just where you wanted to be with nothing left to do. Sweet.
Thank you for watching Tom! #CUOTO
Great job Danny! Patience and letting the waters help you get to the pier and you get her in there no problem. Hope to see you again in the wheelhouse.
Thank you for watching Jeff. I think you will see him (spoiler) next Tuesday doing my first 360 video! #CUOTO
Enjoyed the video. Danny did a great job explaining what he was doing while he was doing it. You should have him on more often.
Thank you for watching Taylor. That is the plan. #CUOTO
Very well done. Thank you. Let nature do the work!
Danny did a great job didn't he? Thank you so much for watching. #CUOTO
Excellent narrative Danny, Thank you. Well Done.
Thank you for watching. #CUOTO
Just like an expert. Loved it.CUOTO.
Thank you John. He is an expert. LOL. CUOTO
that was well done - he really called the rotation just right to stop parallel with the dock, I didn't think he would have been that close with a 180 deg rotation, but he did great.
Thank you for watching David. Oh yes. Danny is sorely missed. CUOTO
Thanks Danny, really enjoyed watching you in action, great job!
Thank you for watching Steve! #CUOTO
Great work Danny, thanks for taking the time.to explain what's happening and what you are trying to achieve.
Don't know a great deal about ships and boats, but to my untrained eye that looked perfect.
Thank you for watching Rich. I too think it was a perfect job. #CUOTO
I would say that was a really good job!
Thanks for sharing :)
Thank you for watching. CUOTO
LOL OK Tim, I just clicked on that BingeWatch from the beginning box. Wow, first time I can see the whole crew. Now I can put a face to a voice when I here them on the radio. And I thought Reggie was a lot older, He's a Kid. LOL and knows the job well. You have a really great crew Tim. You should be very proud of everyone.
Lol. Reggie is a beast! We are very lucky to have him with us. If he is with me in my truck and I get a flat tire, no need to get out the jack. Reggie can just lift and hold the truck up for me while I change the tire. #CUOTO
Excellent job! The slower you go the quicker you finish!
So true! Thank you for watching Mark. #CUOTO

It is always a great feeling to have a trainee excel. Good job by you and Danny.
Thank you for watching John. #CUOTO
Beautifully done both in teaching and learning. I know the pride of having a student learn so well. I learned sailing myself from racing . Then I taught small boat sailing at summer camps and after the campers learned the basics we started to race - them against me. Eventually they would beat me which means they learned a lot. I think by teaching we all learn some more ourselves. Great job, both of your.
Very Very True John. Thank you for watching. #CUOTO
Thanks for that and nicely done.
Verbalizing is a great tool for both student and instructor when learning to operate any peace of equipment. I was taught it on my Advanced Car Driving Course by my instructor a police driving instructor. Man it was amazing what he was noticing and commenting on, way beyond just driving. Any way I passed and later on one before my daughters driving age I put then into by just verbalizing my actions while out for a drive. The picked it up very quickly and had just two driving lessons more to learn how to pass than drive. They both passed the younger one even verbalized during her test, the examiner commented on this as his first and he felt very at ease as he knew what she was seeing.
I have even used while training junior engineers while walking a construction site.
Well done and stay safe.

Danny,
The distance you've traveled from closing up to the old Coast Guard pier aboard Black Bear to Jeffs harbor running the Elk River is greater than the dividers span. Good job.
Thank you for watching and sorry for the late response. (Some of the comments get flagged and I miss them). So, the only rule we have on the channel is that we try very hard to not mention directly by name; Tugs, companies or customers. Doing so puts me in a difficult position with my employer who has generously allowed me to film their equipment. Anyway, now you know. CUOTO
Great Job, well done and I enjoyed the commentary....thanks for the Info, really helped with my studies and experience ( Tims and alls videos and comments that is)... a new skipper from Australia

Good morning Wayne. Thank you for watching. #CUOTO
I've watched 3 of your videos so far and subscribed! My new binge watching/notification waiting channel! I've watched all the videos on an air traffic control channel (VASAviation) and a land based tow truck/rotator truck channel (Ron Pratt). All very educational, absolutely nothing I knew about before and far afield from my IT/health care job! I find it fascinating and strangely relaxing to observe people who are extremely skilled and composed while doing a potentially dangerous and complex job involving physics, mechanical equipment and nature. Counterbalances some of the chaos going on in 2020, perhaps. Ron Pratt uses a head mounted camera most of the time, you might watch to see how it works for viewers (I saw another comment where you discussed the possibility of using it yourself). Thank you and stay safe!

Another great video! Nice job Dan! Grand Republic (and sister ship PT Barnum) always looks like it has an extreme underbite - with the guide rails for the front-loading car access. There's a very lovely and underused mooring field to the west as you enter PJ harbor - it's a regular stopover when sailing.
Thank you for watching Henry. I keep thinking of you saying " Southwest is best". #CUOTO
@@TimBatSea close - but it's northwest (for sailors on the sound) - least fetch and beam reach -- ideal conditions for sailors hoping to make some miles on the sound.
Southeast would also be a beam, but as you know that's usually a sign of a system that is less stable around here.
@@HenryHeymusic Ooops
Captain. It appears your first mate learned very well. He appears cool and calm. He explained and defended his decisions like a true professional. You can be proud of him.
Please explain what direction you are wanting to go when you say, "adding or using left or right rudder".
Great video. CYOTO
Thank you very much for watching and for the kind words Paul. Left wheel means you turn the steering wheel to the left and hopefully the boat goes left. CUOTO
A lovely demonstration of handling a loaded barge. When you are being trained to sit the advanced drivers test in the UK you are taught to talk what you are and intend to do. Its not only for the instructor to know your intentions it is a mental thought process that once you speak it it reconfirms your thought process. Doing it in a car is easy as no one will hear you but with a video running over your shoulder is totally different. Should we blame Tim for it all... I think you Jeff has a inbuilt understanding of the process. He can also describe what he is doing and intends. Great work. Thinking and doing is one skill, talking to others while doing it is another. Time, speed, momentum, energy input, is all a equation that needs constant consideration and control. You showed you have all 4 parts of the equation in your head. Good work Jeff. Now relax and have a Tea or Coffee or soft drink.. and do the paper work!! Amacf
Thank you for watching! Danny sure did a good job and I couldn't be more proud of him. #CUOTO
Oops Sorry Danny. Getting someone’s name wrong is poor observation... I hang my head in shame..
yep when your teaching and training are seen to come together it makes you both walk tall. Amacf
Awesome Job and Video, Please do more like this.
Will do! Thank you for watching Nick.
I sailed Port Jeff harbor on a friends sailboat for many years, and always worried about meeting the ferry in the channel with a recreational boat, let alone with a wide commercial ship. I stumbled on to your page by accident and have learned a tremendous amount. I find myself asking during the video, where is the wind coming from, what is the tide doing? Danny did a great job telling us what he is thinking, and how he is letting the tide and wind work for him, I need to develop that patience as a recreational boater when docking. I may need to start with the binge watching, thanks CUOTO

Oh those must have been the days!!!!! Thank you for watching. #CUOTO
@@TimBatSea They sure were. I feel sorry for anyone just starting out as they took most of the fun out of these jobs. I used to really look forward to getting off of the Boat every once and a while. This ended back in the 80's.
@@USMMCE I remember doing this job, a little. But do not recall how we approached. I was on a single screw, 3200 HP, flanking rudder boat, when I did it. But, nicely done.
I can recall my Deckhand being a little under the influence and the barge captain trying to get to him talking about a "bowl of hot greezy chili." Port Jeff for me was a chance to get a decent dinner and a newspaper. Perhaps because I knew we were next to the Ferry, also owned by my employer, I laid off the joy juice. Albany was where we were more apt to head up the street for adult beverages.
@@USMMCE Really depends on the conpany and crew. Still plenty of boats and people that head up the street now and again

Nicely done to the both of you! It occurs to me that the lingo must be really baffling to a non-tugboat person who may have tuned in. Maybe we could define some of the terms that we tug people use in our everyday discourse. I think you did that on a previous video, and it was really interesting to some friends of mine.
