I work at the Mill at Indiana Harbor which is the former Inland steel and LTV companies. The Sykes and the Block are our ships and service us for limestone and ore. I been on the Sykes several times for dinner. When I was working the dock some of crew come would off her and I always BS with them and they would invite me onboard for a tour and a bite to eat. I can def say she is beautiful.
Thank You for sharing your story Bob! Very interesting, the Sykes is one of my favorites. I worked on Her at Bayship around 1996 for the Winter Layup. I spent over 25 years at the shipyards here in Sturgeon Bay. But only that winter at Bay Ship. Thank You for Watching!! I appreciate it!!
Thank You Jeff!! Glad You Enjoyed!! I do have a Broadcastify Channel You can listen to the boats as they come in or when they are leaving or any other time. Its called Door County Marine Traffic. www.broadcastify.com/listen/feed/37460. Thank You for Watching!!
Your Welcome!! I also worked on the Sykes back in 1996. I had a short stint at Bay Ship for the winter. Although I worked at shipyards in Sturgeon Bay for 25 yrs or so. Thanks for Watching!!!!
Thanks Kurt!, Didnt catch any boats coming in this year. Most of them came in when I was at work. Otherwise not much happening and less boats came in this year. Again Thanks for Watching!! I appreciate it!!
My very first time on this channel, LOVE IT! SUBSCRIBED, IM A BIG TIME SHIP PERSON, THANK YOU FOR AWESOME FOOTAGE! AN OLD LADY FROM UPPER MICHIGAN.. ❤❤❤❤
Sorry you were dissapointed with the video. Actually the boats involved are in the video. If I would have had a video of it coming into the Sturgeon Bay the "Chatter" would have went with it. Unfortunatley I am not retired and can't capture every moment. Thank You for Watching!!
This was one of the best Winter Layup videos I've ever watched. Thanks for your tremendous effort on this one. Great stuff!
