  • The VB 10 000, the largest lifting vessel built in the U.S. and used to remove the capsized vehicle ship 'Golden Ray' from the St Simons Channel (capsized on 9/8/2019) left after completing the work. It took a year for the ship to be cut into 8 sections and removed along with it's cargo of 4,200 vehicles. This video features the VB 10 leaving our area heading back to the Gulf of Mexico. Thanks for watching...don't forget to subscribe to my channel and check out the other video's regarding the Golden Ray Salvage.

    Wow! The size of this massive vessel is overwhelming. Just looking at ALL of those steps makes me tired! This has been a massive struggle and undertaking and certainly an endurance test of time and patience. I have been awed by your videos and thank you for taking the time to present for our viewing. 🇺🇸🇺🇸

    It is a shame not more people were there for the departure of the VB and it's crew. Were it not for the VB being the monster it is that ship would still be laying on that sand bar like a dead whale.... So long guys you did one hell of a job.

      Well..a # of people saw it from different areas. Just weren't many at the pier. Part of that was that it wasn't published anywhere about the time it was leaving. I was aware only because a few friends had contact with the pilot group.

    "Most residents were glad to see the job complete" Yes, at first everybody was morbidly fascinated but it went on too long and made too big a mess.

      Yes..it did drag on and on...but it was a big job and of course # of things didn't go as planned. But finally.
