I helped build that barge along with some of the best ship fitters, pipe fitters, welders, and painters (DS-305) in 2013 - 2014 in Orange Texas. It was designed by Bristol Harbor Group in Rhode Island. That is a 35,000 barrel (1,470,000 Gallon) Bunker Barge. It is built using 2,654,000 lbs of steel. Not only does the tug crew live on board, the barge crew lives on their vessel as well. It has living quarters in the deck house on the starboard side of the stern. Thanks Captain Tim. The boat is obviously designed by Entech, and was likely built in Florida by a company called St. Johns Shipyard.
Thank you for watching Greg and please consider subscribing. I try to post new content every Tuesday. I even have a video of the barge quarters on another older barge. This boat, and all of our 3000s were built in the Chesapeake ship yard. Our older (better) 4200s were built in the bayou in Louisiana. The newer 4200s are in at St John's shipyard in FLA. CUOTO

Had no idea a Tug boat crew lived onboard. I just assumed that because they are always staying in the littoral waters close to their port, they would just go home at the end of the day.
Thank You for Watching. Yes, most of us live onboard (usually for 2 weeks) although there are some companies that operate "day boats" and they just come in to work for each job.
I live in Boston and see the tugs guiding ships in and out of the harbor. Would the people on board really need to spend 2 weeks away from their families when they literally work right in the heart of the city?
@@logdon17 In my country there is a harbour with so much traffic that they litteraly needed to come every minute back but I was invited to come to a different harbour with less traffic onto a tug boat and they came for each job

Hey I really loved this. I'm originally from the Philly area and saw these tugboats and the fuel barges for years. They are beautiful tugs and I always wondered what went on in there. I always loved that they are named after the tributaries of the Chesapeake; I have sailed many of those rivers on the family sailboat when I was a kid. Thank you for taking the time to share this with us. Aside from seeing the boat and the people who operate it, it brings joy to this person who misses the East Coast and its rivers. What I wouldn't give to be sitting in a dinghy in the C&D Canal right now.
Thank you for watching Richard and welcome to the channel. Please consider subscribing. I try to post new content every Tuesday. CUOTO PS I have some videos of Massachusetts Tugs on the channel too.
Hey Tim. Love your videos, just came across your channel. Could you possibly look at doing a series of this content? Maybe a tour of all the equipment and every day challenges you and your crew encounter?? Thanks
So happy to find you. I love tugboats. I used to have an apartment with a great view of the Delaware River. I'd sit there at night and read their "Christmas Trees". Someone had given me a pack of flip cards from a Coast Guard course with all the light configurations. I will be checking out all your videos! So many things I can learn now! 😊
"Shipshape and Bristol Fashion" .. haven't heard that in a longtime .. not since I was on the USS BRISTOL (DD-857) in 1967, Brooklyn Naval Yard. Another great video, Capt. Tim .. thanks.
Thank You very much, it was very interesting to see what you do. I was deckhand for a while on a tugboat in Southeastern Alaska 50 years ago towing log rafts and for the past 30 years have operated a commercial fishing vessel every summer in Southeastern Alaska. Couldn't be more different, I made a 60 mile run last summer and only passed 2 or 3 vessels in the distance.
Brilliant - would never had a clue about your style of life if you had not brought this terrific show to us, thank you. Of course, having a chipmunk with you must keep you sane!!!!!!!!!
Hahaha. I didn't get it at first. I am still learning how to do these silly little videos. I hope to get better, and you may hear the chipmunk less. Thank you for watching and please consider subscribing.
I've often thought that it would be a great job working on a tugboat shifting all manner of vessels around day and night in all sorts of weather. A real team effort , good judgement and a level head would keep everything safe and sound.Thanks for posting that,I really enjoyed it.
Very cool stuff! I’m stuck in Colorado mountains, so any boat life is very strange to me. Thank you for working hard and smart! This job obviously requires a lot of brains
I think "If you've seen one, you've seen them all" is an incorrect assumption. This is interesting! And I could watch a lot longer and in depth. Thanks for the vid!
My Dad was a Deck Hand on the Barbara Moran in the 1970s to 1980s then went to dispatch in the WTC South Tower. Retired when Moran moved ops to CT. Brings back memories. Liked your video. Thanks.
Thank you for watching and welcome to the channel. Remember that no one walks on as a captain and everyone has to start at the bottom. Be sure to check out my video "How to work on a Tugboat". CUOTO
Tim, that tug is immaculate and as nicely preserved as any Navy ship I served on. I know it's relatively new, but you guys keep it in great condition. The other observation I had was ... what a difference in how you go about your business during the day versus at night. It's a whole different ballgame in those congested waters! Nicely done!
Thank you very much. She's an old girl in our fleet (11 years old) but we keep her in shape. Night ops are exactly the same same and about the same frequency because most of our work is governed by the tide. But it is much more challenging at night to be sure.
Thank you for watching. We call that area a "galley". Our boat is almost 11 years old. The newer boats in the fleet have granite countertops and galley table.
Hi, Thanks for a great perspective. Since I was a child Ive wanted to live on a boat. What would be also interesting is challenging days and times where tough decisions need to be made. The rough side. If I ever come by to NY - will check you up and if allowed maybe spend a few days on the boat.
Thank you for watching Yassir and welcome to the channel. So i have over 200 videos on my channel if you would like to see more "challenging" days. If you get to NYC, you'll first find out that I yave been working in the Caribbean for more than a year now. Secondly you will find out that we are not allowed to have visitors or non employees onboard at any time because of security. CUOTO
Tim, I'm a recent subscriber and is very interested in the tugboat industry. My father was a commercial fisherman on Lake Michigan back in the day. Even tho my life journey didn't go to the way of the maritime world, I still have a fantasy lol. Would love to see more of your day to day operations, and how you go about maneuvering your tug into difficult spots. No worries here of boring the viewer! Keep up the good work Cap!
@@timvandenbrink4461 I'm in NY up near Niagara falls area. My dad lives in lower Michigan, New Buffalo actually. Very nice area. He fished perch mostly.
I sailed as a deckhand on the Fells Point when I was a student at Fort Schuyler. Awesome boat awesome crew great company 👍🏼. I sail deep sea right now on tankers as 3M but man I do miss those tug boat days, very fun.
Thank you for watching and please consider subscribing if you haven't already. I am very happy your time on tugs was fun and rewarding. Be safe out there my brother.
Recommended coming in strong! Love the crew banter, some good feels going on in that tug. Wanted to work aboard ships all my life and this has just urged me to get on it. Thanks for the videos, subbed!
Thank you so much for the kind words. You may find last week's video interesting. In I tell you what to expect and what you need to get a job on a tug. Thank you again and for Sub!
Great video... These are the kind I like...!! The “see one you’ve seen them all” DONT apply here. For me I like seeing any/all pushes, tows, hookups... 😎👍✅
I've always been fascinated by the maritime industry. Being from Michigan, I've occasionally seen some decent freighters moving on along the Detroit River, and the Great Lakes. Also got to see a freighter navigate through the locks of Sault Ste. Marie. I probably could work in that industry, but I'll just stick with my little boat instead.
What an interesting video the crew are tight it's mad what power these tugs have & what an important job they do thank you for making this video & showing what it's like Regards Steve UK London
You should give us a full tour of the boat! I'd love to see all the interesting design principles that go into a boat like this. I'm sure the engines are impressive - you could probably spend an entire video talking about those alone.
@@TimBatSea Yes u didn't eve show the Tug from the outside as a whole vessel. Your Tugs are different from ours in UK. We do have pusher Tugs for barges but only a few have a Cab which goes up on a ram so they don't need two different cabs

I spent 2 months living in an Apt. on the East River in Brooklyn. All day I watched the river and the barges and Tugboats going up and down, working all day! Thank you for the insight on what's actually happening, that river and the traffic on it were the highlight of my short time there, never got old!
Thanks for uploading this! I am currently enrolled at a maritime academy and I’ve been looking at what I would like to specialize in. I know I can’t be too picky with what I want when I’m fresh out of school but there’s just so much to look at, including tugs of course :) So this gave me a lot to think about. So thanks again, and great video!
Deep-sea certainly has it's advantages, but tugs have been good to me. Next week's video deals with how to get a job on a tug. The good and the bad. You may find it interesting. Watch the entire thing. You might find something in it you hadn't considered. Thank you for watching and please consider subscribing.
I feel like there's very few people like you in New York that actually want to get things done. Always some delay because someone isn't doing their job. Good to see somebody is still on time and working hard!
Wow. Thank you Sam. My father was first generation American with parents from Germany. My mother was first generation American with Latin American parents.

Reason this guy seems in such a great mood is because he’s got a great job making over 200k. If your reading this and are young you should consider this career.
😂😂😂😂😂 You are killing me. I wish any of us made 200k a year. 😂😂😂😂😂 Maybe if we worked 365 sea days a year. Lol. I dont know any Tugboat Captain that works a regular rotation that makes anything like that. CUOTO
Awesome and interesting video! I'm just curious about what the benefits are of a bunkering barge + tug instead of just having a bunkering ship that doesn't need a tug. Loved the video, would be great with more tugboat videos! Cheers from Sweden!
So there are a few reasons why a barge is preferable to a smaller ship. It mostly comes down to money. A ship will have different Manning requirements than a barge. For example, a ship will need an entire crew and a barge needs none (fulltime). There are unmanned barges that have shore side tankermen that will only come in for the load or discharge. Most of our barges have two tankermen and although they do need a tankermen endorsement, they don't need a Captain's license or Engineer's license. Another advantage is that it make take 12 hours or more to pump off a load to a ship, and we can leave one barge at the ship working and go do two or three other jobs while that one is still discharging. Thank you for watching and please consider subscribing.
Hahaha. Me too. I was going to take the background sound completely out of the speeded up parts, but it made me smile, so I kept it in. Thank you for watching and please consider subscribing.
I fished alot in Honolulu harbor as a kid and was always fascinated about the operation of one of those. Fast forward i got to work on one of the diesel engines on the same ones i used to watch.

Enjoyed this and I'm glad a spotted it. When I was a kid, that's low single digits, my parents were fans of a show on TV called Tugboat Annie. There for a while I wanted to be a tugboat crewman. That didn't happen but your segment brought back some of that excitement.

Hahaha. Thank you for watching and please consider subscribing. Forgetting to turn the steering off is the one that happens often. This is followed by a scolding from the chief engineer.
When you have a Deckhand that cooks, and especially if they enjoy it, life on board is just better. But, I had a rule when I ran boats, if you cook, you do not do the dishes. When we ran with only 3 on board, that meant I probably did the dishes. However, I usually cooked. , Question about your push gear setup. Did you have soft lines connected to a plate, then a wire to the winch? If so, nice. Easier than heavy wire outside the boat. BTW, I ran tugs in the late 80s until 95, mostly ship assist, mostly older, single-screw boats.
@@danmc7815 Thank you for watching. We do the same thing. The deckhand on the mate's watch cooks and the deckhand on the Captain's watch cleans up the galley. We use spectra lines for our push gear with no need for intermediates. They are very expensive, but save on paying out out for injured backs. Chafe is the only thing we worry about with these amazing synthetic lines.
A wonderful flashback. Back in the 50s my father was VP of McAllister Towing. I rode up the East River once. Back when the train yards had steam locomotives. I was a little squirt but it made a big impression. Later I would sail as a deck cadet for the Farrell Lines...plying the high seas.

Your video inspired me to continue my project of building a miniature tugboat 12 feet long and 7 feet in the beam. Powered by a 23 up diesel engine on a 9 inch low speed prop. I am 77 years old and haven't felt this motivated in a long time. Now if the body can last I miss but succed. Thanks again!

Wow, that's a pretty cool job. I think i'll go tug boat shopping now. Seriously, the tug Captains are really skilled professionals. I was watching two tugs on the Miami river bring a Haitian freighter out to Biscayne bay. One pulling from the bow and the other stern. I was pretty impressed by their steering skills yanking this ship down this narrow river, their tugs could spin 360 degrees standing still. Both tugs working together, really cool to watch.
Thank you for watching John. Did you notice that the Bayonne bridge is now much higher than it was 30 years ago? They had to raise the deck to make room for the Ultra Large Container Ships. CUOTO

Hey I really loved this. I'm originally from the Philly area and saw these tugboats and the fuel barges for years. They are beautiful tugs and I always wondered what went on in there. I always loved that they are named after the tributaries of the Chesapeake; I have sailed many of those rivers on the family sailboat when I was a kid. Thank you for taking the time to share this with us. Aside from seeing the boat and the people who operate it, it brings joy to this person who misses the East Coast and its rivers. What I wouldn't give to be sitting in a dinghy in the C&D Canal right now.

So happy to find you. I love tugboats. I used to have an apartment with a great view of the Delaware River. I'd sit there at night and read their "Christmas Trees".

Thank You very much, it was very interesting to see what you do. I was deckhand for a while on a tugboat in Southeastern Alaska 50 years ago towing log rafts and for the past 30 years have operated a commercial fishing vessel every summer in Southeastern Alaska. Couldn't be more different, I made a 60 mile run last summer and only passed 2 or 3 vessels in the distance.

Tim, that tug is immaculate and as nicely preserved as any Navy ship I served on. I know it's relatively new, but you guys keep it in great condition. The other observation I had was ... what a difference in how you go about your business during the day versus at night. It's a whole different ballgame in those congested waters! Nicely done!
Thank you very much. She's an old girl in our fleet (11 years old) but we keep her in shape.
Night ops are exactly the same same and about the same frequency because most of our work is governed by the tide. But it is much more challenging at night to be sure.
This is a cool video. I found this because I live on an aircraft carrier and wanted to know just how tugs work. Thanks for this video🙂

Very nice kitchen and dinning area on the boat.. Never would of thought. Great video.
Thank you for watching. We call that area a "galley". Our boat is almost 11 years old. The newer boats in the fleet have granite countertops and galley table.
Hi, Thanks for a great perspective. Since I was a child Ive wanted to live on a boat. What would be also interesting is challenging days and times where tough decisions need to be made. The rough side. If I ever come by to NY - will check you up and if allowed maybe spend a few days on the boat.
Thank you for watching Yassir and welcome to the channel. So i have over 200 videos on my channel if you would like to see more "challenging" days. If you get to NYC, you'll first find out that I yave been working in the Caribbean for more than a year now. Secondly you will find out that we are not allowed to have visitors or non employees onboard at any time because of security. CUOTO
Tim, I'm a recent subscriber and is very interested in the tugboat industry. My father was a commercial fisherman on Lake Michigan back in the day. Even tho my life journey didn't go to the way of the maritime world, I still have a fantasy lol. Would love to see more of your day to day operations, and how you go about maneuvering your tug into difficult spots. No worries here of boring the viewer! Keep up the good work Cap!

I've always been fascinated by the maritime industry. Being from Michigan, I've occasionally seen some decent freighters moving on along the Detroit River, and the Great Lakes. Also got to see a freighter navigate through the locks of Sault Ste. Marie. I probably could work in that industry, but I'll just stick with my little boat instead.

@@TimBatSea Yes u didn't eve show the Tug from the outside as a whole vessel. Your Tugs are different from ours in UK. We do have pusher Tugs for barges but only a few have a Cab which goes up on a ram so they don't need two different cabs

Awesome and interesting video! I'm just curious about what the benefits are of a bunkering barge + tug instead of just having a bunkering ship that doesn't need a tug. Loved the video, would be great with more tugboat videos! Cheers from Sweden!
So there are a few reasons why a barge is preferable to a smaller ship. It mostly comes down to money. A ship will have different Manning requirements than a barge. For example, a ship will need an entire crew and a barge needs none (fulltime). There are unmanned barges that have shore side tankermen that will only come in for the load or discharge. Most of our barges have two tankermen and although they do need a tankermen endorsement, they don't need a Captain's license or Engineer's license.
Another advantage is that it make take 12 hours or more to pump off a load to a ship, and we can leave one barge at the ship working and go do two or three other jobs while that one is still discharging.

"whole chicken"
Thank you for watching and please consider subscribing.
He's always in the galley! :-)
When you have a Deckhand that cooks, and especially if they enjoy it, life on board is just better. But, I had a rule when I ran boats, if you cook, you do not do the dishes. When we ran with only 3 on board, that meant I probably did the dishes. However, I usually cooked. ,
Question about your push gear setup. Did you have soft lines connected to a plate, then a wire to the winch? If so, nice. Easier than heavy wire outside the boat.
BTW, I ran tugs in the late 80s until 95, mostly ship assist, mostly older, single-screw boats.
@@danmc7815 Thank you for watching. We do the same thing. The deckhand on the mate's watch cooks and the deckhand on the Captain's watch cleans up the galley.
We use spectra lines for our push gear with no need for intermediates. They are very expensive, but save on paying out out for injured backs. Chafe is the only thing we worry about with these amazing synthetic lines.
A wonderful flashback. Back in the 50s my father was VP of McAllister Towing. I rode up the East River once. Back when the train yards had steam locomotives. I was a little squirt but it made a big impression. Later I would sail as a deck cadet for the Farrell Lines...plying the high seas.
