🤙 This is a great way to be an indirect mentor for the new kids on shore who are not sure what they want to do. Options, options, options. General Dynamics electric boat grabbed me right out of college. I was a engineering major in electronics, radio, radar, communications. This was back during the Vietnam conflict. I spent two year at sea on the USS Coral Sea CV-43 as a contractor. I did not wear the uniform. Keep up the great videos and interviews. ✌
Hey now! Thank you for the compliment!! You have done some really cool things!Next interview might be you 😎 Thanks for sharing and your support as always 🇺🇸🫡
That's super cool though, and I wish companies like that did more recruiting on high school and college campuses for skilled trades positions. (Or professional engineering positions for that matter).
Rhode Island Here 😊😊Excellent , it doesn’t look it’s age down there , but up keep is the key 🔑 , in 1987 to 1989 I was in the coast guard on a 82 foot patrol boat out of Newport Rhode Island 🏝 , it was the last of the old ones , the 95 s went first , they engine room looked like that , clean and tight 😅😅 would take off for 2 weeks 50 to 100 miles off shore no issues , maintenance 😊😊😊😊 the inside video of the of operation is a 10 😊
Cool seeing the drive units ,are the new ones any different? Thanks for taking us down the stairs and great to see younger guys staying with the industry especially the mechanical side of things ,got to keep the engines going .
Pretty cool. I'm confident I could be productive in that role. Need some training on the electrical (specifically redundancies and switching). Everything else is bit like wearing an old hat. You pay attention to the machine. A new vibration, a change in frequency, deviation in loads and consumption.. everything has causation. Mike appreciate taking the time to show us around.

OHHHh this is such a cool video, love seeing the mechanical plant on things!
Glad you got your mic sorted out midway thru.
Hey now! Thanks for watching 🫡

Good morning Capt! It’s a cool boat! Thanks for the support as always! Also thank you for your service Sir! 🇺🇸🫡 Happy 4th!
Excellent video. It was nice to see the zdrives!
Thank you! My pleasure! 🤙
well that was informative. seems like a lot to stay on top of mechanically.
He definitely had his hands full down there yesterday! He had help come down though. Thanks for watching Capt 🫡
Thanks for sharing Willy! 🤙
My pleasure! Thank you!!
Love your videos btw
Thanks for watching 🤙
That’s awesome look deep inside a tug! 🤟
Hey now! Much appreciated!
Great video thanks for sharing ✌️
Hey now! Thank you!!
Thank you 😎
Thank you 💯🫡 Happy 4th my friend!
Those Cat engines can run upwards of 2MW each. That's way more power and volume than I expected to see. These tugs are a lot bigger than I thought
They are pretty big boats. They just don’t seam so next to the giant ships. Thanks for watching 🤙
Cool seeing the drive units ,are the new ones any different?
Thanks for taking us down the stairs and great to see younger guys staying with the industry especially the mechanical side of things ,got to keep the engines going .
The ones on our boat are a little different and bigger. Thanks for watching 🤙

Hey nooow!
Hey now!! 🫡
Who own the boat ? You should interview him . And show you pulling with the tug instead of pushing
McAllister. He says it in almost every video. Him? Quite the assumption.
Thank you 🤙
