  • Cruise Ships need fuel and a lot of it. So instead of going to the gas station, the gas station goes to the Cruise Ship.

    Absolutely fascinating! Thank you from a 77 year old woman who still maintains and sails a 50 year old ketch (built by my late husband and me) and is in lifelong love with all things nautical. I wish I could handle my 32 footer as superbly as you handle those barges. After a lifetime around boats, including earning a living on them, I never stop learning and your channel is a university of ship handling!

    As a sideline, you could offer hull scrubbing services on those lifeboats. I see that on all the "newer" cruise ships where the lifeboats overhang quite a bit. Difficult to see the ships side at the waterline when coming alongside. Great skills throwing the line to the bitts in the side. We call em dutch bollards, or sunken bitts.

    Hi Captain Tim!
    Got any Paella left over?
    Do they still have an SR-71 on the Intrepid?
    Seeing the cruise ship next to the Intrepid really shows just how obscenely large the cruise ship really is.
    In the shadow on the side of the ship I see somebody's radar spinning. That's not yours, is it?

    • @TimBatSea
      @TimBatSea  หลายเดือนก่อน +3

    Funny: early in the video you say you'll switch off the radar, so as not to radiate anybody on the cruise ship. Than seemed quite considerate to me. However, late in the video its shadow on the life boat shows the radar still turning. - Well, turning and emitting aren't technically connected, but I'd expected them to be on the same switch and switch position. ;-)

    Another 63yo woman here. i’ve been watching your channel on and off for about three years now. I definitely understand what it’s like to have a successful channel and try to launch a new one. My popular channel is about my helicopter flying, but the channel I’m working on now is about cruising in my Ranger Tug. I got my six pack captains license last October and just finished the Great Loop (mostly) solo earlier this week. Those channels created by the young and beautiful are nothing compared to what knowledgeable older folks like us can create drawing upon years and years of experience. Keep up the good work here and there. I’m not a sailor but I’ll check out that other channel.

    Hey Cap… this one reminds me of the years back when I used to also operate tugs and bunker vessels for our national oil company in the Gulf of Paria Trinidad and Tobago🇹🇹. The only difference is we mostly hip towed our barge.. capacity around 4000 + bl of fuel oil, diesel and the capability to blend what ever the customer wants. Her name is Marabella , she was brought here by Texaco to work in their marine opps @ Pointe-A- Pierre back in the day… her original name was Golden Condor

    I can never understand the mentality of people who go cruising, as I much prefer to have a base on land to go exploring from..
    Travelling on the local bus is my preferred mode of transport - a few years ago, even having a kid goat on my lap!
    That was Corfu, highly recommended place to visit. Stayed the nights in Benitses but went to play dominoes and checkers in Palaiokastritsa.

    Hey Tim, I'm a Great Lakes sailor. Lake Michigan and Superior. When we visited the Pensacola Air museum we met the CEO and when we told him where we were from he excitedly walked us over the the only bird in the barn with combat history. The plane had been salvaged from lake Michigan and completely restored. All the navy pilots did their carrier training on lake Michigan. (WW2) They converted two "lakers " into flat tops. Over two hundred aircraft, retired from combat, went into the lake during training. Very interesting story. No ride to fight here on the lakes, just wind and river current. Thanks!!

    You really are a master craftsman at what you do. It is so enjoyable to listen to you as you calculate the precise maneuvers. This was a very enjoyable video to watch. Keep up the great work! Oh, and about the folks wanting the other angles. I hear you, you need to take care of the barge first! One idea might be to check into some fixed cameras so all you need to do is set it and forget it before you journey out and take the sd cards out when you are back at the dock. Pay a young kid a few bucks to sync it all up... That way you stay focused on the barge but we get more angles :) Take care Tim.

      Thank you for watching and trying out the SVPAQUITA channel. If you notice, much of my boat handling relies on my reading the wind and tide. This is something that translates well to the sailing world. Oddly, I have learned so much more about handling barges since I've started sailing. I believe it has made me a much better boat handler.
