      Never heard the double salute an welcome before. Usually just one time three long an two short..
      I'm sure it's the great Paul the videographer. The filming is a beautiful
      sight to see. The cold water meeting the warmth of the bough is an amazing sight to see.
      My Dear Gramma would say no artist could paint that picture. Merry Christmas, Happy Days ahead we pray.

    Having been in the navy I’ve heard a few ship horns but I can tell that was the throatiest one. I would love to have that one mounted on my house and everytime these kids drove by with their bass thumping garbage rattling my windows give them a couple toots and see how they like it.

    We saw her come in on ships camera live. During more pleasant weather people who live in the Duluth area will stand along the sides of the ship channel to watch these huge ships come into the Duluth harbor. Often times the Ships Captain will give a salute with his ships horn. Merry Christmas everyone.

      @@CSTA2024 There is obviously a difficulty in our understanding of our common language here I guess your term “saltie” refers to ships only. My understanding as a native English speaker is it refers to ships AND men wherein I as a “saltie” was a seafarer on “ saltie” ships that occasionally visited the Great Lakes . Our occupations are inextricably linked in that we both work on large bodies of water and face similar dangers and pleasures, as in the loss of the Edmund Fitzgerald ( Lakes disaster ) and Derbyshire in a Typhoon in Pacific ……that’s all.

    For a minute, I was like... "deiced" What's "deiced"? ....Oh. :D These ships are breathtaking. Ever since I spent a week on the St. Lawrence seaway 14 years ago, the breathtaking size of these large vessels has held a place in my conscious that makes me appreciate them in a way I never could if I hadn't seen them with my own eyes. I saw one or two 800 footers, so adding another 200' to the visual is hard to fathom!
