- American Century arrived in Superior this afternoon to end the shipping season. Multiple tugs assisted the Century in breaking 2 foot thick ice on it's way to its slip.
These ships are incredible, and the skill the Captains have, the tugs and the Lakers, is absolutely amazing. They all deserve a long winter's rest. Gods Speed, Gentlemen
Exactly what I would have said. They are so majestic even with being a little beat up by end of the season.
Those tugs really earn their pay! Welcome home, Captain and Crew, and enjoy a well-deserved rest.
Been watching AC’s journey since she was at the Soo locks checking in on her and her crew , happy to see all arrive safe and sound.
This was real fun watching live!
Thank you!
Also great editing on the video. I really like the audio mixed in from the tugs. Great stuff!
I'm new to this channel, and I am so glad I came across
It. I have always been intrigued by the Fitzgerald's tragedy, and the Anderson's return. All jobs have it's dangers, but the men of the water, you are Heroes. No matter how insignificant your job is, it is significant to the shipment of goods. Thank all of you for doing everything tasked of you. God Blessed you with a return home safe season. Bless you and your families, and the families of the one's lost. Rest now with the ones you love. See you in the spring.
Nicely said. 😊
Welcome to the club. Watching these ships and crew is a passion we share. Enjoy!
What an awesome job the tug guys have
These crews are amazing!
Wonderful team work. I love watching them work together. Enjoy your well deserved vacation everyone. See you in the spring ❤️
Two quick, loud captain's salutes on the way in from one very happy crew.
Blasting the crap out of the neighbors.
@@Capecodham What neighbors? It's the Superior Entry channel...

Lol, yeah somewhat hard to tell on these videos but it’s sort of in the middle of nowhere (why the video quality is low), and you can’t hear the horns of one entrance from the other, too far apart!
Love watching! Rest well everyone! See you in the Spring!
They earned a nice rest after the ice in the locks giving them trouble. Welcome home guys!!
Aha. I see that. Lighthouse Cam. Nice.
god bless the crew thankfully you made it thru safe and sound
So thankful I tuned in
Rest well. 🥰
Better late than never 🙈
Welcoming you home safe and sound.
Got a few photos of the Century at the Soo, she had a heck of a time, took almost 12 hours to lock thru. Have a good rest ship and crew
@@cnrailfan3473 yes, she made several attempts, then backed out, to allow the Arthur M Anderson to lock down, and hopefully flush some ice out of the lock.
Thanks for editing this and sharing. I watched live yesterday flipping back and forth between the different camera's to keep up with the action. See you in the Spring. 👍
I’m amazed
LOVE these incredible cargo ships!!!! I can't imagine how scary it must be & the icy conditions. Thanks to all the Captains too!!
She’s had a long journey home
American Century welcome! Impressive tow!
Monday evening: AMA and IH are still out there with loads (AMA for Conneaut and IH for Gary). IH sat west of the Mighty Mac for nearly a day before getting back under way this afternoon. One of those two will be the last to lay up.
The AC has a little bit of experience with ice, after the rough night she had at the Soo on the 15th/16th.
Took four tries to get into the lock due to the ice conditions, and then they had her anchor (with everyone else) until the morning of the 16th due to ice. So she spent the night anchored just above the locks.
I'm sure the sight of Superior/Duluth was a relief.
Never noticed until now, Burns Harbor clearly has a larger superstructure than the Century (yes I know it’s further out of the water but still) that’s interesting, always thought they were identical
Bet the captain and crew are happy to be home especially after Soo Locks , Welcome Home !
Wow that is late. I can remember seeing the last laker moving past Windsor/Detroit before Christmas.
Glad made it threw horrific weather . Don't know none of you but glad your safe
Lighthouse Cam really flexing it's Zoom on that opening shot!
Regarding the drone....are there any rules about how close the drones can get to commercial ships and navigational lighthouses and lights? This is the first time I've seen a drone on these films.
Superior entries are like 75% less dramatic
Respectfully - since we are nearing the end of January, what constitutes the winter layover and why didn't it start in November or December? I'm enjoying this channel way too much.
Saw her go through the locks late Saturday. Last ship of the season.😥
Is that a drone?😩
Lol. When the drone pops into view....
The canal must freeze up in winter so is this why they don’t work in winter months
☺️🌾✌🏾
What does it carry ?
