    For someone with absolutely no experience in tug boats I find your videos addictive. I love the water and love being on it . Ty captain

    THANX, SO MUCH CAPT. SO APPRECIATE YOUR VIDS. WHEN HUNTING THE DUCK NEAR HENNEPIN, HENRY AND LACON, WE USED TO WAIT FOR THE PUSHERS TO BREAK ICE FOR US SO WE COULD BOAT TO OUR BLINDS. I REMEMBER THE OLD DEISEL MOTOR PUSHERS AND THEIR RHUM, RHUM, RHUM THROBBING UP AND DOWN THE ILLINOIS. AWESOME VIDS. THANX FOR GIVING US THE VIDS AND NARRATIVES

    Another outstanding video Capt! you mentioned you were doing about 3.5 around that last flank..curious to know if that was clutch ahead or were you already slightly driving on it? Seemed like you really use the buoy line like a channel range marker to know when to make the turn-that and your radar rings, but I couldn't tell if you were already putting power on at that point. Amazing how fast the head comes around in swift water.

    • @marktwained
      @marktwained  9 років тому +1

      3.5 was at current speed. We flanked at 7.5 mph at Cottonwood, a very tight and swift spot this trip.

    Hi Kyle, Has the William E Strait been repaired after the collision with the Margaret Ann, or was she a total loss ? I read the NTSB report and it seems the pilot was having a rough trip.

      @marktwained  9 років тому

      Yes, it was Queen of Mississippi, or as we call the cheap knockoff the "Floatel 6". Haha
      Yes, a friend brought the Delta Queen (real steamboat) down for her refurb.
      Glad you enjoy videos. I enjoy posting them.
