    Who operates the crane? And who’s tending the buoys on the deck? Which rates? Are they all BMs or are BMs only in the piloting of the boat. Just curious how it all works, going to join soon.

      Jan that is really cool. 👍🏻Those who shoot and edit are never given enough recognition. People watch and simply don't think about the person who not only was there but lugging around equipment and operating it all while still watching for themselves.

    That brought back great memories of my too short time in 1958/59 on the old "OAK" (1921 - Steam triple expansion top speed 8 knots) working the Jersey Shore, Long Island Sounds and the Hudson River. THANK YOU....an Old Coastie.

    The ship they are on is not a cutter. It is a buoy tender wlb-201.

    Are all the 180' s gone now? I was on board the Bittersweet (WLB-389) at the time the Blackthorn went down.
