It is a small tug for such a long tow! It must have taken all of slack to transit, while the other boats waited. Thanks for posting. It's really amazing to watch
I saw were someone commented the other day on a tug video that" you always push a load in the water,never pull" I wish I could find the comment and tag them
Nice work. Espescially considering it was only one boat on a low tide ebb. That rock is covered at a high tide, making things much less tight to get through
The reason you always listen and broadcast a "Securite" on VHF 16 when transiting a narrows. You wouldnt want to be meeting something like this in the narrows
that had nothing to do with luck I was pure skill and knowledge
Those Tug Boat crews are all old hands at this.
Absolutely. Been there, done that..

That's amazing. Reminds me of the beginning of Star Wars, strangely enough.

Dunno.. it’s all good till it isn’t! 🤣

Yes he has to go with the tide. You would go backwards if you were against the tide.
No, the tide is ebbing.
