🚨 Cape Texas Update 🚨 January 6, 2025. The US cargo ship Cape Texas has made contact with the Port Authority of Las Palmas, Gran Canaria, requesting anchorage and supplies. This comes after days of strange movements between La Palma, Tenerife, and Gran Canaria. Experts suggest possible reasons, including waiting for orders, searching for something, or even mapping the Canary Islands’ seabed. I’ll be sharing a quick update video on this topic later today. Stay tuned for the latest insights! 🛳🇺🇸
I googled Cape Texas. Is is a roll on/roll off carrier - military vehicles can drive onto it & drive off. It has been used in the past by the USA to transport military equipment to the middle east. The US purchased it from Germany. Articles suggest it may have had a malfunction that required repairs - after Jan 6 supposedly it departed the island area. Supposedly it caused quite a stir among the local Islanders, because it was circling the islands for days and no one knows why.
I dug into this one a little more. Yes it is part of the US Ready Reserve Fleet. But it is no longer owned and operated by the US Navy. She no longer carries the USNS designation and is now owned by the US Department of Transportation as MV Cape Texas. But as noted she is available for Navy Service with 5 days notice. But since she is DOT she can and does see some use in other ways. For example due to her ability to load container sized modules she can easily be used by NOAA the US National Oceanographic and Atmospheric Administration for research cruises. However given the current state of the world I think you are more likely correct that she is probably carrying Military Materials, and is simply on station in a pre-position location just in case. Probably looking towards something getting worse in the Middle East or something in North or West Africa suddenly getting unstable. Ok MORE unstable. It could simply be doing a Reserve Training Cruise (although they would probably be moving around more). Or given where it is, it might actually be a NOAA Oceanographic mission. With a couple of University Teams taking water samples etc. But if that was the case they probably would pull into Tennerife and Pa Palma at some point and you would notice all the drunk grad students. I lean towards its simply sitting on station at a pre-position point just in case something happens in this period of political changeover in the US. Right now the US has a very weak, very confused lame duck President until Jan 21 when Trump takes office. So the Pentagon may have activated some assets and put them into "just in case" standby positions. It will probably sail for home on Jan 22.
Great reporting as always. Very interesting, my thought would be military related. We are on the cusp of something, most people I know well have felt this for a few years now
There are a lot of strange, unexplained things going on these days. I've been praying about it all. It just seems like there is an atmosphere of unrest everywhere. Thank you for reporting on this. The Lord bless and keep you...
There is no telling with this current administration. I will pray y'all find out. Pray for this world and for TRUMPS administration that all goes well Jan 20th. GOD BLESS! ❤

Always a pleasure to hear from you again Bear, Blessings 🤲
That is very interesting. Thank you for reporting on this, I haven't seen this anywhere else. Stay aware and safe, Bear.

It's the La Palma volcano guy again! Haven't seen this channel for a long time...
Thank you so much for reporting on this, God bless you 🙏
It seems lots of the things are happening that we don't see AND lots of things we see are not what is happening.
@@simchascribe9412 Very well said.
Interesting!
WOW! Thanks for the report Mr. Bear..
Thanks for update bud haven't commented in forever. Be safe out there
Ben it sounds like they are looking for something 😉👍
Bushcraft Bear, so glad to see you're OK! God Bless.😇😇😇

You beat Sal, of What About Shipping, with this one.
Very interesting
Good to hear from you again!
What a fascinating story! Will follow your reportage anxiously! Nice to see you on line and reporting! Always interesting! ❤
Great reporting as always. Very interesting, my thought would be military related. We are on the cusp of something, most people I know well have felt this for a few years now
This makes me a bit nervious. Thanks for reporting this.
Why?
Thanks Bear, stay safe
Now doing some circles north of Gran Canaria... same routine, intl waters but entering territorial
The plot thickens...
Just keep watching.... things may get interesting.
Be safe BB.
Wow..who knows? It’s a cargo ship, so…it’s got something on it
Yeah, U.S. military forces
Brother BB, hello! So good to hear and see you. Thank you for the update. Many blessings from Grandma Linda in Martinsburg WV USA. 🙏🤗❤️😇✝️
Thanks Bear. Nice to see you. I think there is more to the story . Stay safe my friend . 🙏🏼
You can bet it isn’t good whatever the reason. Everyone worldwide should be vigilant all the time.
There are a lot of strange, unexplained things going on these days. I've been praying about it all. It just seems like there is an atmosphere of unrest everywhere. Thank you for reporting on this.
The Lord bless and keep you...
Thank you for the information! Mysterious for sure!
Thanks for the update. Keep a close eye on that one…
What underwater assets are on the ocean floor in that area?
Hey brother 🙏
Be well thank you for the information 🤝
Thank you Brother!
Thank you Bear
Stay safe, Mr. Bear
No better eyes and ears than yours! I look forward to the next update. Blood of Jesus cover you and your family 💞
Ships usually have destinations
This is a search pattern. Probably a missing sub?
Wow...😮 Always be on a mind of prayer...thanks for that story, thank you Mr. Bear.🌼
Stay safe!!
Is there no way for officials to radio this Captain and simply ask him what he's doing?
@@susanvaughan4210 absolutely susan. I don't think any of us have a clue what's going on in the world right now. Scary times.
Good seeing you again Ben. I hope all is well. The question is what "eagle" has landed in the area?
If just killing time I would expect a speed of 6-8 knots, not, the higher speed of 15-16 knots you noted which consumes more fuel. Very srange
We live in Tenerife and Are a Little Bit scared what this is
We need more answers indeed!
Could be mapping the sea floor after the volcano.
...?
Nah...
Maybe, but a cargo ship? Still, that is a good idea.
It's searching for something. If hanging around, why do 16knts? It's probably dragging a sensor.
Searching for grunions . 🤔
At least no islands are falling apart. Yet 🏝.
I wonder if monkey works knows what is happening 🤔
For a reason.....
Hmm… 🤨🤔
oh ?😮interesting
It could be looking for something hostile?
your German is good
Is it near the Cumbra Vieja?
Seemingly, it’s not allowed to land anywhere. For some odd reason
Are you going to post any more wildlife vlogs?
awaits jan 20 a nice area to visit anyway
Maybe somebody dropped the keys.
Looks like a refueler 🤔
They are probably looking for a lost unmanned drone submarine.
✅️😂👍👍
Probably just a steering problem 🤨
Surveillance. That back and forth is not random for a surveillance pattern.
I have no knowledge of this, but maybe it is somehow related to the presidential inauguration on January 20. Just a thought.
is it landslide-related you think bear??
It appears to be sheltering from high seas, high winds or both.
Spooky for sure. Personally, I trust no one, ...but my hubby, kids and of course, The Lord.
Hmmmm. ....
Send the information to Candace
This is pretty interesting and potentially viewed as some sketchy behavior for that vessel.
Good to see a vid from you!
There is no telling with this current administration. I will pray y'all find out. Pray for this world and for TRUMPS administration that all goes well Jan 20th. GOD BLESS! ❤
That sounds really suspicious! I wish it would of stayed a private shipping vessel and not part of the war machine. I’m from the US by the way.
Looks like a perfect platform to launch & landing of drones?
This cannot be good, that ship is for a reason! Stay alert.
Why don't your"experts" just listen into their radio frequency and then we all will know what is going on.
Drone mothership
Intel ship
I know the captain of the ship _Cape Texas._ She dropped her cell phone in the water and made everyone look for it. 😁
Just don’t put on that tinfoil hat! It’s too easy to descend into the conspiracy theory abyss! 😻🐻😻
Is anyone alive on board? ❤😊
@@decmagnet2072 That is funny!! 🤣😂
Great question 🇨🇦❤️
