- Finally they completed section 7 (4th cut with 3 more to go) Saturday morning on the capsized vehicle ship 'Golden Ray'. On Tuesday 4/27 they had it on the barge and began moving it to Mayor's Point in Brunswick Ga to be made seaworthy before being taken to Louisiana for salvage. Also includes clips of them removing vehicles from the ship. Thanks for watching and please subscribe and hit notifications as the Golden Ray saga continues.
Thanks so much for making this video! Great quality! I know the people in and around the Brunswick area will be glad to see the ship gone. The environmental damage to the beautiful marshes will sadly remain long after the Golden Ray is gone.
Those tug boat captains are the real unsung heroes of the whole salvage operation, they make a dangerous job look easy! Thanks again for another great video.
Yes..I am amazed at the precision that the tug crews due for this entire process. They do a fantastic job
Drove by there a few months ago. I had to stop at Willie's weenie wagon again get a couple of dogs
@@spankylalaverture1151 what are you trying to imply? Willy's ween-e wagon is a hot dog stand close by there. Are you trying to be a douche spanky or does it come natural to you? If you're trying to say I have some sort of fixation for men you are incorrect. The way your wording it shows you are nothing but a childish punk. Choose your words wisely.
No matter how often I see it, I'm baffled watching a floating crane lift enormous objects.
This is film we rarely see on TV or data at all, here is the giants' workplace this time. Very well filmed, and without disturbing music.
Tv is obsolete
Great footage of section 7. Sounds like the birds were happy another piece is off of it! Hoping they get most of the contaminants sweep off the water. Amazing what the anchor chain can do. Thanks for sharing!
Thanks Wyoming..hope you are doing well.
@@goldenstringsstudio recovering from back surgery but doing better. Thanks
@@wyomingadventures i hope it continues to improve
At least another year before they are done.
Thanks for the update.
Well...you might be correct lol....but I believe that the next 3 cuts will go much better...but then they do have a lot of clean up...so we'll see. Should start a pool lol
@@goldenstringsstudio ,
Should start a pool. Lol.

Thanks for the video, I have been watching Andy and the Minorcan Mullet with the daily updates. This is a fascinating project.
Yes..Andy does a very nice job and his perspective from the boat is great. I'm going to try to contact him and see if he'd mind if I tag along
Those videos were amazing I wish we could see the cutting in action❓ thank you so much for sharing truly enjoyed them👍💯
I am trying...I would love to get that footage myself but whether I will be too will be difficult. But stay tuned as there are 3 more cuts (4 sections to move)
@@goldenstringsstudio I will definitely keep watching very interesting thank you for sharing with us👍
The Weather Channel is doing a show on it on Sunday nights called "Deep Water Salvage".
@@Taconix Thanks...I'll have to see if I can find that
Nice footage. Thank you for sharing.
Thanks..and I enjoy your bird videos. What do you typically shoot with (camera)? You get very nice footage and sound. I usually can't use my audio because too much ambient noise.
this video is enough to add to my knowledge of working tools.
Thanks for posting, very interesting video.
Thanks for watching
No job too big, no task too tall. Incredible work.
It was a mix of these vehicles per on news report: 4,200 Kia, Chevrolet, GMC, GM, Mercedes-Benz, and Ram
wooow
amazing hard work👍
NIce one.
Very excellent
Thanks..I appreciate you watching
INTERESSANTE 🧐 Show 👍
Jeez that’s One Big Job™!
Hi, great video, I would like to ask your permission to reuse part of the video and tag your channel below the description. That makes you satisfied, if not we are also very happy that you have responded.
Yes...you can use part of this video..but only from this one and not others. Thanks for the request
It’s amazing Dear GOD bless you
amazing machine like this
Crazy how fast that salt water degraded everything.
Thanks again!!!😊
R.I.P.
Truly unbelievable, thanks for a fascinating video.
1:54 Because it's speeded up. the tugboat looks like a toy boat bobbing in a bathtub.
Very well produced video. Much better than the rambling BS commentary from the un-informed on other "feeds". Thanks
Glad you enjoyed it!
Looks top-heavy as hell.
Yes..sometimes the vehicle ships are called 'floating shoeboxes' and keeping the ballast correct is key. But 40 ships go through the channel monthly here and this is the first tiem ever for this kind of accident.
I saw at least a couple of cars that should go at 50% discount, or will they probably sell as bikes, 2 wheels?
that got my attention! subliminal footage amigo keep filming.:)
Thank you, I will
Id like to see a pic of what is used to make those cuts....
It's anchor chain.
Yes..it is a big anchor chain as Wyoming pointed out. Just like you'd see on a large ship. They have also had to use cutting torches to help get through some of the structure.
@@goldenstringsstudio
Its not the anchor chain that made the cut, its a cable made with carbide inserts thats pulled on both ends with anchor chain.
Anchor chain, really?
Well...while that would seem to make the most sense it is NOT what is happening. Here's a paragraph from the Brunswick News from Nov 2020 (when they started cutting): "The 255-foot-high dual-hulled VB 10,000 sits astride the half-sunken overturned shipwreck in the St. Simons Sound. It is employing massive anchor chains powered by pulleys and winches to cut through the overturned ship by force of tension." I have seen many pictures of the chain and a regular issue they have is the chain breaking and I've talked to numerous people. I cannot get good video from where I can shoot from (no boat) but have reviewed the Golden Ray Unified Command pictures documenting the process. If you have some 'first hand' knowledge then please share. The process on the Golden Ray (to my knowledge) has never been done exactly like this before.
@@goldenstringsstudio- I was lucky enough to meet one of the supervisors of this salvage job. Yes, they are using anchor chain to cut through the ship. No teeth or other modifications added to chain. Just plain, large, chain. And yes, it is very common to break the chain while under tension.
What a mess! Even trying to pull the cars out of the hull section will be a dangerous nightmare.
Most of the cars where not extracted but simply left in the cut pieces though they removed about 200 cars from the bow and stern cut areas. You will see in my videos of the cut pieces (on barge) the cars inside. At the Brunswick port they do remove some that might fall on the trip to Louisiana but otherwise they stay there.
Its kinda sad to see all that engineering, money & resources just scrapped. I know it couldn't be saved but what a waste
When you factor in that the ship was built in 2017 (they take a couple years to build) it's even worst I think. But yes..a big 'waste'
Oh god😋
Where is footage of the actual cutting process ?
So far I haven't been able to get any. The VB 10 and other equipment block the view. No one is allowed on/near the ship. Boats have to stay 200 yards from the perimeter. And from the places I can shoot from along the shore (St Simons or Jekyll) I just can't get that angle. I continue to try to go out on a boat at some point to get different footage
Watch Deep Water Salvage on The Weather Channel.
I'm puzzled that's a strange looking shipment. If I were to guess just what and where it's origin is. My first guess would be the collapse of the condo, high rise in Florida.
It's one section of the Golden Ray, a capsized ship. Check out my other video's for more information.
Probably a stupid question... how was this cut? welders? shape charge?
Not at all...its very unusual what they are doing. They are actually using a large anchor chain attached to the VB 10 (big yellow structure) and starting at the bottom ripping and tearing through the ship. To my knowledge this is the first time they have used the VB 10 and this process to dismantle a ship.
@@goldenstringsstudio gotta be honest, the "section 7" vid showed up in my YT feed. i dont recall seeing anything like this in the news (??). im totally mindblown by how it was cut. i've cut a C-130 fuselage before (for test) so a crash saw, welder or charge was/is my only point of reference. thanks for the explanation
@@omlettedufromage8588 No problem...it was quite mindblowing for us on hearing and seeing how they were going to accomplish this. Quite a topic of discussion among the locals.
Those cars will buff out and be in a used lot in 5-6 weeks.....
Well lol..you never know...but to my knowledge they are all being scrapped. And it would take much more than buffing due to all the salt water impact. But who knows lol
I love my tritium sites on my bow, watch hands just aren't the same without it, I guess I'm screwed now... Damn...😢
How can they cut a ship with an anchor chain?
Well its more like 'ripping' than cutting. If you look closely at my video's that zoom in on cut sections you will see how ragged the cuts are. I know it seems strange..it did to all of us who have followed this from day 1. The VB 10 applies the force and it is a constant back and forth starting at the bottom and working the way up. They have broken the chain during the process on a # of occasions. Which is one reason (among others) that have caused this to take so long).
I heard that they were letting those cars go at a big discount!
None of the cars are being sold nor would anyone want to buy them (I don't imagine). I'm sure they are keeping close tabs to make sure all are being destroyed since the insurance companies are probably paying out for them.
I need one for my aquarium!
@@spankylalaverture1151 What is the 'sister goldenstrings' reference? I'm certainly not a female lol
Deviam tirar todos os navios do fundo do mar 🤔🤔🤔🤔👍
What is this
It is a cut section of the Golden Ray a 656 foot vehicle ship that capsized on 9/8/2019. It is being cut section by section to get it out of the St Simons Channel which leads to the Port of Brunswick
What am I looking at?
It is one piece or section of the Golden Ray, a 636 foot vehicle ship that capsized in the St Simons Channel. It is being cut up and removed from the channel. Check out some of the other videos which may provide additional detail.

Thanks👍
É também pode drenar a água do reservatório do navio afundado para inflar um balão.
Mostly GM products in there, nothing important lost.

Q terrible fue esa esplocion yo vi el vídeo y no pude destin si era un edificio o un barco con autos a dentro . Pero terrible fue ami me gustaría conocer para aya
Polluting the waters.. Sad
Yes..there has been impact due to various spillage from the ship. I do believe they have made a good effort in trying to contain the impact but of course 100% containment isn't possible. They had removed most (not all) of the bunker fuel very early in the process from the ship.

UA-cam algorithms put this in my suggested videos and there is no context to the video. Bizarre. 👎🏼👎🏼👎🏼
lot of totaled to be nice GMC and Cadillac trucks, DAM SHAME
