That was absolutely fascinating. Thank you, Kenneth. Most of us never get to see that. I don't know how the hell you guys see my little drone when it's out.
My Mom’s cousin was a career man on the mighty Gott. Wonderful man & never once complained about his job. RIP Terry Moen from Bagley, Mn. Love You & see you some day ✨
Super video of the wheelhouse, something I've often wondered about. Thanks for sharing it! What's on the four stories beneath you? Crews quarters I would assume.
Forward pilot house was on the earlier ships just the design back then. 60s or 70s they seemed to change to rear pilot house think it had alot to do with if there was a collision better chance in survival.

thanks for sharing Kenneth. Always awesome to get an inside look at these beauties.
Thanks Kenneth awesome video. we need more videos like this do one of the engine room and maybe where the crew sleeps
Thank you for the tour. I have never seen the inside of a pilot house before.
This is another great video. Thank you for sharing. My 1st time seeing the bridge & GREAT narratorating too.

Currently watching this beast pound waves off the shores of Milwaukee.

Cool video I always thought great lake ships are interesting
Answered some of my questions about navigation.
Cool, My grand father worked there in the 40's and 50's.
This ship was built in 79
He’s talking about the port I think
so clean
pretty neat. so the ballast also acts to keep the ship stable? If so, how much water do you need to put/gallons/weight? Where does this ship go?
Thanks for the tour. Does the helmsman actually run the engine controls also or just carry out steering orders or steer a course.
Where's the horn valve?
Why are some pilot houses in the front and others in the back? Thanks.

@@stickman920 Alot has to do with storage. House forward protects crew from the weather and debris. House aft mKes it easier to see the crew on deck.
