Captain that was awesome. Thank you for the trip down to the port of Charleston, South Carolina. And a big thank you to Josh for letting us come along while he worked. Harbor Pilots kick ass. lol not to worry Capt Willy. No Tugs, No Moving vessels around. Be safe guy's. CUOTO 🤙✌
What a privilege to watch that. I've wondered how that was done from the bridge of those big ships ever since I was a little kid. Thank you to you both!
Tugboat Willy , thanks for sharing this! We had no idea the work that goes into moving these huge vessels in and out of ports by both tugboats and pilots. So very interesting !! I have a new healthy respect for Tugboats and their crews. 👏 !!!
That was something. Never considered the pilot taking their own navigation gear. Makes sense though. Familiarity breeds confidence. Thanks to all that facilitated this.
Their GPS gear is a system that uses a local base station to provide very, very accurate GPS correction data. Known in the GISS world as RTK (real-time kinematics)
So awesome to find your channel! My boys and I love watching the ships from Remley’s Point. It would be cool to catch some video of you and your tug from the bridge!
Willy I thought your job was stressful but the pilots responsibility. Wow I would never have nerve enough to do that. I get stressed out just backing an 18 wheeler into a loading dock. Lol. Thanks so much for that eye opener.
That was awesome. 2 ships in the same video, and looking and listening to the bridge as Josh the pilot coordinates the harbour nav :) It was cool to see that his nav pad had a position predictor based on the rate of turn, speed etc.
This was excellent for us young aspiring pilots to be 🤘🏽Def gave me a good idea of what happens up there (perspective is nuts). Now i know what all those sounds are that i hear over the radio 😆 Thanks for sharing! Btw, I’ve def assisted that Ever Living here in Puget sound 🤙🏽 Cheers 🍻
Rhode Island saying great video Willy . Love the different aspects of what goes on to move a ship . Question 🙋 are the tugs in providence are the on shore power or a generator all the time , if a generator how often for a replacement .Thanks
Awesome video Willy; you da best man!!! 😇Maybe you could get one from the Ambrose channel going under the Verrazano one of these days? 😉 Thanks to HOLY CITY PILOTS too! 👍👍
Great video. It's nice that you were able to board the container ship and see how the pilot does his job on a container ship. Unfortunately, the wind picks up the microphones when it's windy.

@@tugboatwilly843 You are a good guy and you make good videos. Keep up the good work and greetings from Finland!!!!
I appreciate that! You’re a good gut yourself bro! Enjoy the day!
@@tugboatwilly843 thanks a lot 🙂
Interesting, always wondered what a Pilot job was when he takes control of a ship.
🫡
Hey @tugboatwilly why would they turn the boat so close to the dock? Can they not wait until they get further out to sea?
Hey now! Gotta turn where the water is. You definitely don’t want to go under a bridge backwards if you don’t have to. Thanks for watching! 🤙
I have a question about that channel pilot thing does every pilot have those things
Im not sure if they all have them but I will ask!
Do those yoga pants come with the job? #legday
what is the green thing near the right
why the cop there?
Port police. Always a few of them there. I think that was actually the dock warden. Thanks for watching 🤙
Those are filipinos ofw .. wow
Not sure. Thanks for watching 🫡
Tug life. LOL.
🤣🤙🫡
