The American Century is a 1000 foot long ship that entered the Duluth harbor at about 11:30 AM CST 5/21/2016 to pick up a load of coal. My latest ship video: • The Mesabi Miner Going...
Have been going to Duluth for most of my 57 yrs. and this will never get old. When you live next to something so amazing and what it represents you lose its meaning, purpose and history. God willing they return home. Spuds
The fact that i was inside this ship from miles away as voyaged and sleeping when it was crossing this though I was awakened by the voices of the people and hailing scream , Then i rushed on the window and looking down where the people had signaled me and also gave them signals back for saying Bye Bye... ✌️✌️👍💓😑
While filming the old ore carriers in Duluth on my honeymoon, in late '69, had been taking 35mm color slides, and Super-8mm (silent) color film, and although I only have slides and movies of the ore carrier Anderson, never could have imagined anything like the Anderson, or the Fitzgerald, ever getting lost out there on the Great Lakes. How wrong I was. Years later, after the Fitz went down, and when filming the Paul Tregurtha coming into Duluth in the late 90s, was then using Hi-8 video. What a sight, but weather calm, so no spectacle, except as to how huge this ship really was entering the canal. It was only later I discovered this had been the largest ship on the Great Lakes at the time, and designed to handle ice during winter months, too. However, it apparently had gotten stuck in the ice on its maiden voyage, according a documentary I'd seen, and while leaving its homeport. Just not sure where that was, but somewhere on the Lakes. And it took a Coast Guard icebreaker to get it loose. After repairs to its massive blunt and dented bow, it then continued plying the Great Lakes, and for years afterwards, apparently without further incident.

This is in Duluth Minnesota. If you ever have a chance to go and see this, go. It is worth it. Some of the big ships are 1000' long. They are massive, and beautiful.
Cool story. You don't do anything but exist. Duluth is the biggest inland Port on the planet. So are we a fly through, or make money? I'm not trying to be a dick. It's about 3x a day for me
God is great eventing in America is deffiend form the world and it's quality too May God bless you all brothers and sister's and America and the world in Jesus Name Amen.......

To be there and see something that big transiting such a small space, it is amazing. To have actually done it, even more so.
Thats very generous of the captain saluting all the passerbys

I've been seriously spilled. But it never gets old.
I've watched maybe 200 entries and exits.
It's awesome
Spoiled
@@greenlawnfarm5827 Duluth is a thriving, beautiful city. 3 billion dollars of investment going on right now. Lots to do.
I live right next to here and I watch the ships all the time. Its way bigger in person than on video
The blast of the ships horn and the blast of the bridge horn greeting each other gives me goosebumps every time!
Now that is a big beast of a ship! Imagine that creeping in at night time with barely a sound out of it. A ghost ship!
It’s a barge ships sail on the sea
@@purtlemoirrey1161 it’s a ship lmao

But the horn didn't wake you up

It's nice that someone on the ship waves to the crowd of onlookers, especially for the kids.
Guess that teaches me to never leave my volume up from the last vid I just watched....almost flew out of my chair, lol
Thanks for warning
Beauty of Sailing on such large Ship is a memorable experience in life.

Simply amazing!!!!!
Now that is one mean, huge barge! And cameras can never capture size compared to the human eye - it mustve been spectacular to see live.
Yes I agree on that, what would it be like if it was creeping in at night when you decide to go for a walk around.
Onde é isso? País, cidade?
@@mariooliveira734 π
Just look at the size of that thing!!! It is so huge!
are you fishing for a "that's what she said" joke?
@@MJ-km2ju 0lc
Man...the close clearances in the channel must give the pilot and helmsman ulcers.... not a lot of room for error here!
WOW
Almost all of these vessels have bow thrusters in azipods. They can maneuver pretty well through that channel no tugboats required.

How do they stop a ship that size? It must take a lot of skill!!!😨😰😭😵😊
You know you live somewhere boring as hell when this many people show up to watch a boat drive by...
Did you all see the big handed crewman waving back ?
I saw
No
Yes
2:44 yes
This is everyday where I live. Never any excited crowds

Not sure which one is the biggest to sail the great lakes but she is huge.
The Paul R. Tregurtha is currently the longest ship on the Great Lakes at 1,013 feet (308.76m) long.
There's several of them in that thousand foot range. Although for now there's stuck from Lake Erie and up due to the inadequately small Weiland canal.

Amazing n very Large Cape size vessel 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
You missed the most important part! Too much stern and nothing of the actual passage of the highest part under the bridge.😪
Very nice.. thank you..
Those horns actually mean something and aren’t just greet the crowd or the operators. Thought u might want to know
3 honks = salute
I would love to be there!!

Oh what a gigantic ship
Nice video thanks for share it
Simply amazing! Please tell me whether this huge ship can reach St.Lawrence river from Duluth?
It can! There is a series of canals and locks connecting the Great Lakes to the ocean.

@@emdiesel63 Oh yah, you bet!
This was like that pacific rim bot sword. XD
One solitary lifeboat? Guess this Leviathan must be unsinkable too....

There will be another one on the other side not viewable to us - modern ships have very less crews and 2 lifeboats are enough

Greetings from 😎🇨🇭
This is in Duluth, Minnesota. If you take a look on Google Maps, you can see why the bridge is there.

Hi
Hi
There is also a live action camera for the harbor, Duluth Harbor cam.
That is very big long ship wow cool its take captain good minutes to turn that ship.
How would a tug boat do on that I wonder.

Now lower the bridge and let's shippy limbo

Tenk omm en sånn båt ryker og går lehh vor stor forurensning blir det??
How unfortunate that these ships will never see ocean
And why would it not see the ocean????
the video grapher is not steady very shaky video taping
Imagine the video grapher doing the video at night. Not a sound and it creeps in
Everyday on the saint Lawrence river.
Everyday in Duluth

How do all of these people know that this particular ship will be coming? Are they all members of the same cult or something?
nice tanker
Actually, it's an ore freighter.
Its a little scary looking, like to other ships don't mess with me.
Length 203m, width 18m .why? Dwt?
Next time show how much clearance to the top please.
이렇게 큰배을 가까이서 볼수있다니 신기하네요 👋 👋 👋
