- Great Lakes Fleet vessel, John G Munson departed the Husky Fuel dock, decided to fuss with the ice via the Superior Entry. The Ice in the Superior Canal was no match for the Munson ! They are now out in the lake waiting for a few days to load ore at BN.
My goodness, she looks like an icebreaker and look at the ice on her sides. and bow! Beautiful ship!
I LOVE how the first moments are sped up and then slowed back down to real time!!! Great video!! The power of the Munson is unbelievable !!
It's easy to move when there's only "Someone spilled ice from drinking glass" amount of ice. Baltic Sea passenger ferries wouldn't even consider that as ice.
Even relatively thin ice would stop ship with such vertical bow.
And that ship wouldn't go anywhere, except maybe to bottom, when meeting real ice:

I like your use of fast-motion for the preliminary sequences, then real time/live audio as the ship passes. well done, sir
Beautiful mustache and eyebrows on the front! Somehow that color combo with the facial expression reminds me of the Little Red Caboose story my mom would read to me when I was a kid.
The sped-up shots really show it ... Look at that ice just submitting as she cruises along!
Classic Great Lakes Freighter. Enjoy all your videos; just like being there---without the frostbite !
Can you imagine what that sounds like inside that hull ? 🤤👍👍
Jimmy Britt, not much anything because that's thin ice.
Only distance ship with that vertical bow would move forward in real ice is how much it could crush its bow shorter.
And actual sound of real ice breaking likely isn't what you think:

WOW....THATS A BIG SHIP !!!
You go girl and show them how it’s done. Your not going to stop me today lol 😂
LOL! Well put.
That's one fast boat! You could almost ski behind her
Yah, I was gonna say, prolly got a couple big Merc's on the back there...
The caals frozen
Munson captain: Hold my beer
🤣 good chance its relatively close to true!
"Flossin? Where'd I get Munson from?"
The Munson is So Big and Brute! Will it go Thru that Ice? With Such Vigor and Yaugh! Tell me True now!
like there was nothing in their way!
Titanic, this is how ya do it!
Who ever can handled the cold most over North post
What kind of engine does she use? It’s pretty noisy which is amazing! I love those motors. It almost reminds me of the Titanic motors or the E.M Ford.
Converted to diesel in 2017 she is powered by a MAK diesel engine
how a passing ship interfered with a hockey game
How do you know when ship is moving? Is there a web site to check on movements?
Yes there are websites, such as live ship tracking. There is also a ship schedule in the visitor center at Canal Park.
I wonder how it is for the crew onboard. It must be terribly noisy when trying to sleep.
You'd be surprised. I worked on a ship like this and the noise is only up when at the dock loading and unloading.
thanks dor a great video
Munson...for the WIN
Crackle cunch crunch
If they stop moving, thats when the trouble starts...
Is there a tunnel from the front half of the boat to the rear? Or must the crew walk out side?
There is a tunnel on both sides of the ship from bow to stern.
sound kicks in late
I think that the ice wins
Doesn't look like she could steer very well?
Believe it or not, she does steer very well.
What a looker! Steam?
Diesel... sadly
is this an icebreaker or a normal cargo ship?
Cargo ship.
wow how long is tat ship??
768' long 72' wide
My verdict: DRAW.
John got through, but Ice is still there.
Sorry, John.
ice?? hold my beer
How deep is that ice anyawy?
JAMES MARK, that's "someone spilled ice from drinking glass" level.
Ship with that vertical bow just wouldn't move forward in real ice, except the amount it could crush its bow shorter.

Is husky fuel the old calumet fuel?
Scott Burns it is !
Bumpy railroad tracks
Munson is like Srcew You Ice your nothing
how thick you think the ice is there?
Thomas Broking it was about 1 to 4 "
Paul Scinocca Ok,, I was thinking a few feet deep!!
@@pole_barn_builder No Great Lakes ship would try to power through thicker then about 12 inches thick. Thicker ice needs an ice breaker.
@@michaeldeierhoi4096 cool to know! The great lakes are mesmerizing to me! Kinda like an inland ocean!
@@pole_barn_builder I spent two seasons on the Great Lakes back in the late 70's and I well remember going through ice in April at the beginning of the run and in December when ice was accumulating. Those late year runs were not fun because it was so cold. Sometimes ships had to call in ice breakers to get around.
Big old barge..
It was an expression..
No probs..she's a fine boat/vessel - truly impressive
