Nothing like this in Australia, our climate is too warm however in Melbourne, it feels like there should be icebergs in winter. I love seeing this sort thing, it’s awesome. 🥶🥶🍺🍺🇦🇺🇦🇺
@@ILM787 In all seriousness now: advatangae of bridge forward - excellent visibility in front of the vessel - very quiet ship as at most vessels engineroom stays on the back, so crew sleeping forward have a good rest disadvantage: - more difficult to see what the vessels does when turning near buoys and/or in tight spaces - in rough weather more noise from vessel hitting the waves and the foreships moves more then the aftship so less rest when sleeping in the foreship - more expensive to built as engineroom is far from the bridge and pipes and cables have to run from engineroom to bridge advatangae of bridge on the aft advantage: - better overall visibility when turning - less movement of the aftship so "better" rest in rough weather - cheaper to built as pipes and cables to bridge can be shorter disadvantage: - poor visibility close to the bow - more noise from the engine and engineroom All in all both have advantages, however I think that the building cost are most decisive (for ocean going vessels at least).

how nice that they have a person to tell the visitors all about the ships sailing into port
Beautiful video
The lobster 😅
Probably the same person who operates the draw span.
Unfortunately i understand only a little bit. Greetings from Germany. Grüße aus Deutschland : - )
Great narration for visitors 🙂👍
Anyone who is willing to go out in below zero to see a steamer ship in is a real passionate fan of the trade!
Hello Jane...Thank you, for such a Fabulous and Informative video...I'm a former Twin Ports resident, now residing in Kentucky.⚘
Beautiful ice pics. Winter looks like awesome and is no match for this boat, lol
Thanks much, always amazing to see them coming in through the ice!
Our Great Lakes Freighters have more steel than most ocean sailing ships.
It's good to see that many people out there!
Exquisite finally!
very cool. love those lake boats. looked like he was coming in a little hot. I guess any slower and he loses steerage.
Very nice
The way some of the crew stands there and waves at people makes me think of a parade float. lol

HA - MELBOURNE never gets that cold -it is just that we get ‘spoiled’ with our mild Winters and whinge about NOTHING. CHEERS from AUSTRALIA.
Beautiful vessel
What are the pros/cons of having a bridge towards the bow versus the stern?
You can see more at the front, and less at the back
bridge on the forward:
pro: it is on the forward
con: it is not at the back
bridge on the back:
pro: it is on the back
con: it is not on the forward
Seahorn lol
@@ILM787 In all seriousness now:
advatangae of bridge forward
- excellent visibility in front of the vessel
- very quiet ship as at most vessels engineroom stays on the back, so crew sleeping forward have a good rest
disadvantage:
- more difficult to see what the vessels does when turning near buoys and/or in tight spaces
- in rough weather more noise from vessel hitting the waves and the foreships moves more then the aftship so less rest when sleeping in the foreship
- more expensive to built as engineroom is far from the bridge and pipes and cables have to run from engineroom to bridge
advatangae of bridge on the aft
advantage:
- better overall visibility when turning
- less movement of the aftship so "better" rest in rough weather
- cheaper to built as pipes and cables to bridge can be shorter
disadvantage:
- poor visibility close to the bow
- more noise from the engine and engineroom
All in all both have advantages, however I think that the building cost are most decisive (for ocean going vessels at least).
she looks like the Edmund Fitzgerald minus some white on the bow.
That is a heck of an ice breaker.
1:00 So there!
I thought the lakes shut down in winter
Shipping stops when the locks close from mid January through mid March.
I see myself.
👋👋👋📢📣📢🔊
Those are some diehards out there in January
I just couldn't live in such a frigid environment.
It's definitely something that takes getting used to....lol

@ 28 Seconds ~ Powered by 2 engines 2,406 cylinders ! Lol she has no clue what shes talking about ! Thats a lot of Cylinders
She said: two 4100 horsepower six cylinder diesel engines. Perhaps a battery change is due for your hearing aids ?
blusnuby2 what???
@@blusnuby2
Except she omitted the "horsepower" part. But yeah, she's not THAT stupid.
Nothing wrong with what she said, anyone with any type of engine knowledge would know what she means,your tryingbto be smart and it didnt work.
@@mr.mcbeavy1443 if you had a Toyota Tundra 5.7Litre and someone asks how big is the engine you say 5.7.
