- The 767-foot ship Arthur M. Anderson arrived under the Aerial Lift Bridge from Lake Superior in Duluth, MN. I captured the ship's arrival and made sure to include MAXIMUM people watching as I walked up to the Lift Bridge, and while documenting the ship! Don't miss the two people sitting in lawn chairs relaxing beside the bridge in the shade or the well-dressed wedding party taking photos! Lots of people watching action with the ship!

The J.B. Ford was scrapped recently. She was the last survivor of the 1913 storm.
This is a very interesting comment. I’m pinning it to the top. I’ve included links about the ship and the storm! Thanks Biwabik! You are bringing us down another fun ship rabbit hole!

Never knew that! Awww what a soldier she was abd very sad her time came. Very sad but such as life.
I saw the J.B Ford at the scrap yard when I visited Duluth. It really looked like a scary looking relic from many years ago.
What an interest hard working look to this Lady of the lake. Do not scrap this Lady, deliver her to me in Easton and I will park her on Pearl St, that way I will have a saved parking space every day. Your walking tour was awesome thanks for all you do for us Mike. Peace and good health.
I agree with you 100% that the Anderson should not be scrapped when its retired. A ship with so much history should definitely be preserved as a museum.
I don’t know if you agree with this, the most historic vessel sailing on the Great Lakes? Tons of history because the Fitz! That also connects the courage of the Anderson’s crew that night too. The ship and crew should be forever honored!
Absolutley!😊😊😊😊
You wouldn't get any argument from me I totally agree.@@vibewithmike
AGREE. History worth preserving.❤
Looks like the company holds her in high regard. So elegant, Carrie's her age like a grand lady. She is living her life and the Fitz s as well. So much history, she is a maritime book all on her own.
There’s no doubt it’s well taken care of
It needs to be turned into a museum ❤❤
Beth, I agree, and I would be there to check it out
Beautiful ship, Right on 🎵 whistle,😳
It’s definitely a classy lady
You are right, Mike, the Arthur Anderson never gets old and the feelings remain strong with the connection to the Edmund Fitzgerald. It should be kept for other generations to tour and learn on. Thanks for sharing this video!
It’s the only floating link to the Fitz in our heart.
She's beautifully maintained.
Arthur M Anderson brings a smile to my face everytime. I agree jt shouldn't be scrapped it's a piece of history. Great video. Thanks Mike
Mike, I love that you included a little history about the man Arthur M. Anderson. Most of us don't know any of the history of the persons these ships are named for. Just another reason why I love watching your videos!
I always try to figure out something extra about what we were looking at. Heck, I didn’t even know who Arthur Anderson was until I did some research. Now we are set for the Jeopardy. Question someday!
@@vibewithmikeLol. Im sure you would be great at Jeopardy! Btw, I'm in Arkansas, 103 deg. today, sure wish I was there instead!!
I completely agree. It would be a dream come true to be able to board the Anderson and just see all the history she holds. Especially up in the wheelhouse to get even the tiniest idea of what Captain Cooper saw. Long Live the Arthur M Anderson man, such an amazing ship
What a joyous day! I love the angled stack on the Arthur M. Anderson. My favorite ship forever. ❤
My favorite ship thanks for the video
Jeremy, I’m glad you enjoyed the ship my friend! This was a fun video to record. I really like those two people sitting in the lawn chairs relaxing, that was a good move!⛴️
@@vibewithmike Thank You for doing the video
@jeremycox571 you got it brother
Great crowd !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I have just as much fun people watching as I do watching the ships. Always some action going on when there’s big crowds.⛴️
Agree with you that she shouldn't be scrapped. Great ship!
It would be a travesty if they scrapped that ship. Just the history connected to the fits alone makes it super different. It’s a spectacular ship. I love it.⛴️
Mike am I weird that these ships bring a tear to my eye? And partly due to your great coverage of them for sure.....have a wonderful Saturday. 🥰
Pamela, you are the best! It was so awesome seeing you on the radio livestream last night! I hope you’re doing well. I did make it to the state fair on Thursday. Plenty of cheese curds, I don’t want to think of cheese curds for a while now!😂😂😂😂
I get teary eyed too Pamela.
Thumbs up as always, Mike. Cheers : - )
Hey brother, always great hearing from you! How are you been?
I´m feeling great. Things have changed really good : - ) @@vibewithmike
Outstanding presentation. Really fun to watch. Oh, and great catch on the wedding.👰♀️🤵♂️
That first wave was a salute to you. Love this ship.
Incredibly Captain Cooper has been gone 30 years. Found a good article in the Battle Creek enquirer from Oct 2016 on Capt Cooper's legacy. Quite a man!
I found that article right here for everybody to read. www.battlecreekenquirer.com/story/opinion/columnists/2016/10/08/jim-hettinger-remembering-capt-jb-cooper/91752270/
@@vibewithmikeWhat a fine article Mike.
I hope Captain Cooper had a great retirement before his wife passed. Any children, or great grandchildren? ❤
Terrific video Mike. I loved the 2 people sitting in their chairs, in the shade, waiting for the ship. One of life's little pleasures.
Those two people had the best idea hands down!
This ship should become a museum in honor of al the man and woman who served on it ( and the other lakers) and who provided the harbours with their loads, so that the people could benefit from it .
Look at al the people on the pier paying their respect....
Those big battle ships are museums too, so why not this one?
I hope she will become one !
Thanks for the video Mike, have a great weekend.
Adrian from Amsterdam
Adrian, I agree with you, it should be a museum
Duluth, a great city. I lived in Thunder Bay for several years and spent many weekends in this great friendly city. It looks amazing in the summer sun.
Watching ships go by, watching paint dry, watching corn grow. I lived in the mid west for too long years ago.
Can't get enough of these beautiful sunny days watching the ships arrive !!! and also just love the color scheme ⛴⛴⛴
Hey there Captain!! 👋 Looks like we have some people who have been "bridged". I personally would get out and walk to the pier and watch but just me. The very well dressed people look like they are part of a wedding because I thought I saw a bride. The seagulls must know that the Anderson is coming and are getting ready and maybe are looking for some land action. I totally agree that the Anderson should be saved and somehow used as a touring vessel. She is so linked with the Fitz. I did see someone out by the pilot house(maybe the captain) waving around the 5:50 mark. These awesome vessels never get old for me either. So much history and beauty. Thanks so much for a fantastic video!! Loved seeing the pivot. Hope you are having a great Saturday. Nice here in the Twin cities. About 72 degrees. Take care my friend and chat later. 🙋🚢
I might do a livestream later tonight with a ship. Keep your eye out. I’m not too sure if that was the captain, it might be? I saw him too. These ships definitely never get old. It’s about 60° in Duluth right now.
@@vibewithmike I will keep my eyes open for a possibility of a Livestream. Your weather is pretty good too.
Hi Karen, I agree! You just have to see this ship so I would walk out too! Hope you have a great evening!
@@johanvandersandt8904 hey there Johan 👋! I just couldn't sit in my car when a ship like The Anderson is coming in. Hope you are having a good Saturday evening.
I agree completely! She is legendary! Take care and be safe out there Karen! I am off to bed! 😁👍
What a classic vessel. The stories she could tell. I'm planning to visit Duluth next summer.
Another Great Video Mike It Never Gets Old The Anderson Should Not Be Scrapped It's A great vessel Have A Great Saturday Night😊
Awesome video. Thanks for posting!
I agree wholeheartedly Mike. Scrap any plans to scrap the Anderson.
The Arthur M. Anderson should absolutely be preserved after it retires. It would really be a shame to lose that piece of history for a few bucks of scrap. Great video Mike!
Absolutely! The Anderson should be preserved when she is retired!
@rudycarlson8245 we are looking forward to seeing the ships starting to move this coming week, I will be out there live streaming
@@vibewithmike the Anderson Has to be one of the most well-known ships ever! Another thing they could do to bring money in for maintenance for her is to offer tours on her. What do you think? Say 20 bucks a ticket?
@rudycarlson8245 I definitely am game for anything to preserve this ship
Love it!
Thanks friend, happy Saturday
Love your videos. That place is on my bucket list.
Love Duluth and hope to move back when I retire
The ships will be waiting for you
What a gorgeous looking ship the AMA is , a classic Laker eh Mike!!
It’s one of my favorite vessels on the Great Lakes. I have never watched it go by without thinking about the Fitzgerald and that storm.
Another Great video, Mike!⚘
Thanks Frank, I appreciate you brother
Always causes a couple of tears to fill my eyes when it is the Arthur M. Anderson.
Well done!
Thank you very much my friend! I’m keeping my eye on a few ships right now. There’s an ocean going ship out at anchor in front of the piers. I’m waiting for that one to come in. Have a wonderful Saturday.⛴️
Just opened youtube right before I was about to turn in and then saw this video of yours. Long may she live! Yeah she has to be preserved. I have to say that she rivals if not surpasses the PRT in renown and status! Have a fantastic evening Mike!
I love these videos!!!! Keep up the good work!!!! Freighters are awesome 👍👍👍👍👍
Thank you very much! These ships never get old. I was down by the Lift Bridge today and it’s pretty windy. If a ship comes through, I’ll make sure to get it for you! Thanks again Rod!🙏👍⛴️
Mike from peoria il great video beautiful ship hope to get to see it before its retired boat friend
I hope you see it too!
Great veiw, Can never get sick of watching her go by.
History sailing by…Love it. Gotta get back up there sometime next year👍 5:46
Terrific Mike. Thanks
Definitely agree..no scrap yard. Beautiful day for a great crowd. Great video Mike...⛴️🇺🇸🇨🇦
I like bringing the camera through the crowd. Everybody’s excited to check out the ship. It’s about 60° in Duluth today. I’ll take that any day.⛴️🇨🇦🇺🇸
@@vibewithmike Yes.. definitely. Better than a pour down. Great temperature for Deluth today for sure..👍👍
@luvutoo242 windows open weather
Thank you Mike
AMA just spent a week in Toledo supposedly having it's main generator replaced. I understand it was with a used unit, but still they must be planning on keeping it going at least a couple of years longer for them to do that. Definitely needs a paint touch up!
Paul, keeping this wonderful ship moving for another two years is music to my ears brother
Miss Duluth because I grew up there and moved to Indiana in 1977, people asked me why I moved to Indiana and I said that every one makes a mistake, lol though it was like moving to Florida, miss Duluth, graduated in 1978 and went to Duluth East High School as grew up in Duluth
You definitely know the city then. Many things have changed but a lot has remained the same. That’s what’s cool about the city
She’s moving fast!
Thank you for the different perspective of the lift bridge and that channel.
It is wonderful to see the Anderson pass through that channel.
Wendy, I’m glad you enjoyed it
I enjoyed that !
Thanks, Norman!!!!
American maritime history contained in every inch of her
Absolutely no question about it with this ship
Love the way you show the area and also the narration.
Big crowd! I loved the video, thanks.
I’m glad that you enjoyed the ship my friend!
PS. Have always liked the white 'Banner' ....very similar to the USCG ships, only in a different color.
6:08
gone but not forgotten
I remember when my sister worked at that pizza factory on the last big building on the left, awesome pizza pizza
Is that the one that’s across the street from Grandma’s at the base of the bridge?
it's like we are actually there love the walk POV.
Beautiful video, Mike! You're right it NEVER gets old. Just about the most famous and majestic ship ever. 😊Thanks for all you do. Qs - what is the average number of freighters that come and go each day?
It can really vary. I know there have been days with 10+ arrivals and the next day there could be zero.
@@vibewithmike is there an average number daily, both inbound and outbound?? ( my hubby wants to know! He's from Boston ☺️)
@gracegirl3 there could be 10 one day and zero for three days straight, you never know!
My dad worked on this ship for a long time. We lived near Fairport, OH. He told me a story of how he was out with the cook, "Cookie" (sp?) from the Fitzgerald the night before it's fatal voyage. Cookie didn't make the sailing the next day and lived. Interviews can be found of him.
I’m going to look for these interviews. On TH-cam I’m assuming? Thank you so much for this wonderful comment. You really made my day with this. I hope you subscribe (it’s free) and come back to my channel to watch more ship videos moving forward. It’s all about having fun with the ships!👍👍👍⛴️⛴️⛴️
@@vibewithmike Thank you 🙂
@swagner2977 absolutely!
@swagner2977 I found this article “Robert Rafferty wasn't even supposed to be on the Edmund Fitzgerald. The ship's usual cook didn't want to make the journey. His replacement got bleeding ulcers at the last minute, so Rafferty joined the crew.” www.michiganpublic.org/arts-culture/2015-11-11/40-years-later-were-still-captivated-by-the-edmund-fitzgerald
@@vibewithmike yes, I don't know if you received the links I sent, but I think my dad was speaking of the person who said he had ulcers, nickname of Cookie. I imagine that person had a lot of guilt after that.
The Spirit of Cooper will hopefully intervene for her to bypass scrapping
This needs to become a museum ship
You would be a great reporter.
Hey Linda. Geez, I see Mike as a reporter now. A ship/Twin Ports reporter. But I know what you meant. And I agree with you! He is a natural giving us these awesome videos. I couldn't do it anywhere near as well. No way.
Wow! Thank you Linda! I appreciate you saying that.
I can't help myself but sing a bit of Gordon Lightfoot when I see the Arthur M Anderson...
I could’ve sworn this was much earlier in the day
I don’t recall the exact time of day now that I see this.
@@vibewithmike Turns out there was a morning arrival a week earlier. Must’ve been there that week.
@xHadesStamps got it, thanks for the update
I think. With the connection it has with the edmund fitzgerald when it's time to retire this ship that is a piece of history she. Should automatically be a museum ship
Matthew, I totally agree with you man
@@vibewithmike amen
I think there would be an uprising of boat nerds if they tried to scrap this historical ship.
The boat nerd community would never allow it
Amazing vid! Is Duluth a good place to live?
Thanks friend, I always try to give a little more perspective of the city before recording the ships. Yes, it’s a Great city as long as you can deal with the cold in the winter! Lots of ships, lots of snow!😂⛴️
@@vibewithmike oh, don’t worry I live in Canada in those winters in Duluth are LITERALLY NOTHING Compared to what we deal with, so I will be fine! I’m actually not too far away from Minnesota! So we get equal amount of cold wich I can deal with!
@OldMMB all my friends in Canada have to deal with that cold as well. Did you ever hear this? People call Minnesota, Canada Jr.
I’m cool with that!!!!!!!🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸⛴️⛴️⛴️⛴️
@@vibewithmike hahahahaha! I’ve never heard of that! But that sounds so funny! 🤣🤣🤣 🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇨🇦🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
@@Ralphbros24 I thought it was funny when I first heard it but I’ve actually kind of adopted it. I like that.
Hey Mike….I keep wondering if you have finally moved from Minneapolis to Duluth? They must have a cot for you on the bridge.
Nope, I’m up here half of the time. At some point I will move up here full-time. I’d much rather have a cot down in your neck of the woods in Florida as the winter approaches. How you doing my friend?⛴️
@@vibewithmike it has cooled off to the 90’s….I can’t believe I just said that. I can boil potatoes in my pool. We always wished for warmer weather when I lived in Duluth….now I want a frigid north wind.
@berniesmith6466 at least you don’t need a snow shovel anymore
Beautiful vessel, her appearance and her reputation precedes her…… I would say majestic is the word….
What a crowd on a beautiful Duluth Saturday at the Canal. Can it get any better than that!
Waving a hand from texas it’s a 108 degrees here
Peter! I hope you’re doing well brother. Happy Saturday.⛴️
@@vibewithmike yes sir staying indoors today
Hey Peter! 👋I would like to make a copy of my weather today and send it to you. 72 degrees.
@Peter-qf3be sounds good

Is lake shipping seasonal?
Great question Pope! Shipping season on the great lakes runs from the end of March to the start of January. Here’s some more information. www.lre.usace.army.mil/Media/News-Releases/Article/3329856/soo-locks-to-open-march-25-for-2023-shipping-season/
What can't be unseen are the asymmetric bow thruster logos on each side of the bow. Ugh.
Stands at Attention ..
THEY SHOULD NOT SCRAP IT. THEY SHOULD MAKE IT A museum .stop
AMA looking good 👍
The company really keeps that ship looking good
Live tonight Bro! 💯💯💯💯
