Way cool video. Much respect for the freighter dudes. They make it look easy but I know they bust their butts. Thank you for getting the goods where they belong for the rest of us.
Didn't realise tugs like that were still in service. Those were introduced possibly more than 100 years ago. It seems like boats on the great lakes are frequently a case of 'if it aint broke don't fix it'.
Recently there has been a big sensation on television programs of ice road truckers. I think its high time for a version of ice lake freighters, and it would be ten times as interesting.
an industry where families were raised around it, generations?? why would anyone retire from it, to enter "the rat race" ??? Very good footage friend...thankyou and peace✌
Great Music!!!
I'm from Australia.. I've always loved the great lakes and the incredible ships.. Although, unfortunately, I've never been..! Hopefully, one day..
Excellent!

The M/V algosteel was scrapped in Turkey in 2018. So was the the Algoway. And the Algowood.

Sehr schöner Film. Einfach toll wie groß in Amerika alles ist. Die Binnenschifffahrt in Deutschland ist ja naturgemäß eher klein.
Mpg ... Rusty .. launch where
Thanks for superb clip! ;-)
Do any other US Navy ships sail on the Great Lakes? What exactly did the LCS do there?
LCS are built in Marinette Wisconsin. You can see one being launched at 4:20. I've seen a few minesweepers and tank landing craft.
The US NAVY has a huge base in the Great Lakes.
Ships look good
The Lakes are seeing more sea ships coming in too.
Most of them look rusty and several decades old.
Many of them are 50+ yrs old. Some have been around since ww2
too many of those ships need a good coat of paint..
Compro por 200 bilhões todos os navios que estão nesse vídeo para a marinha mercante da Bahia brasil
What makes me sad, is the shots where you can see the pollution on the horizon. 😢
J Sowders don’t watch a chinese shipping video
