Many of you seemed to liked the engine room tour I did of a 3000 HP tug. This week's video is of an Engine Room Tour of a 4200 HP Tugboat.

Great description of what is what and how it’s done. Engines running and no music- perfect! Thank you
Thank you for watching.
Sorry, those folks complaining about "no ear protection" weren't concerned about your health. They are people that attempt to control other people's lives. Enjoyment by typing the negative.... pretty much like what I am doing right now.....literally a waste of time. Enjoy your videos and cool demeanor....keep it up.
Thank you so much for that! I really appreciate it!
I came to the comments to write one like this, but you said it perfectly.
@mike force He's trying to help keep garbage out of the comments. Take a hint!
I realize I'm pretty randomly asking but do anybody know of a good place to watch new movies online?
@Rex Easton I would suggest Flixzone. Just search on google for it =)
I love to see a clean well organized engine room!! Great tour. On the boat I worked on we had 2 16V 92 Detroit Diesels and that got the 92 foot catamaran to a cruising speed of 28KTS. They got us back and forth from KeyWest to Ft Myers or Naples FL everyday. I do miss working in that engine room. Have a great day!

Thx Tim for the very informative vids. Oh God how I can relate with your comment about not having the energy to fight and argue anymore. Same boat there brother. Have a great tour.
Thank you for watching. Be safe out there my brother.
That was great Tim, thank you !!! Love seeing the diesel engines and all the support equipment engineered in to make them last many decades. Makes sense to have the winch mid deck like that, similar to how a pickup truck will pull better with a gooseneck/5th wheel hitch vs a "bumper pull" tow hitch. Be safe, stay healthy. Im healthy but I've canceled my upcoming cruise out of NYC due to Coronavirus and/or the fear of possibly being quarantined someplace against my will, should things turn bad.

Hi Tim,thanks for the tour,nice clean engine room.Saw the weights and on the tug I was on.We lifted on standby time as well.
Yes, unfortunately those weights are lifted by the younger crew much more that I get a chance. Well, I have plenty of chances just not the energy. Lol. Thank you for watching.

Thank you for watching. I'll see if I can put something together for you, but the official answer is "We don't go out in rough weather". Lol
I worked for Ingram contractors from the US on a Derrick barge building oil rigs in bass straight Australia many years ago. We had a tug in attendance called the Eileen B which would tow us around out of the ferocious weather and move all our breast anchors. I just love seeing all this stuff. Brings back memories.

@@davidwarren4569 Thank you very much David!
Another fantastic video mate. Thanks for showing us another tug and explaining the difference between the two. I’m gonna learn how that hydraulic brake system works, im very interested in that. I’m a Interstate truck driver and used to drive some of the bigger trucks so I like to see all the different methods of moving freight. Some people don’t realise there is a few key jobs and if theses few decided to stop nearly every other place cannot function for very long.
Exactly. Hey. Have you every used a Jake Brake? I believe our hydraulic shaft brakes works in a similar manner, except instead of valving off exhaust gas, it works by valving off hydraulic fluid used in the reverse gear. Thanks again my Brother.
TimBatSea yes I’m very familiar with jake brakes, ahh ok I get you. It is amazing the things we have now compared to only 20-25 years ago. I never thought about them texas bars and why the winch is always so close to the middle, your explanation made me understand instantly how it helps steering. Never even crossed my mind but it makes perfect sense that anything pining you down from the rear is going to want to send you straight
@@Big_Red_Wade That's it exactly!
I work on a 3400 HP tug in Southeast Alaska that runs 2 Cat 3516 series. Its amazing how much horsepower can be squeezed out of those engines in different configurations.

Glad you showed the world what a real tugboat with a real tow machine looks like. Not like that sissy 3000 hp thing you ride around in. Keep up the good work Tim.
Hahaha. You know Jerry, you were my favorite relief.
Know somebody that worked on tugboat that promised to take me on a tour but never happened. Told me best part they had to feed them free meals every so many hours. Asked him what was the most unusually thing he found in our local river or ocean. Told me boots. What yea they were attached to a pair of legs.Great vid.

I'd love to see the wheels of a 4200. Your reconditioning of your 3000 Tug was fascinating in dry dock. I just love the you explain things. I’m learning a lot…..for what? I have no idea. However, it will make me a better Barbara Ann Captain, our 51' Riviera. I really look forward to your Tuesday videos. Thank you Tim.

@@mohdhakimbinabdghani5062 hahaha got to have thick skin to be a sailor. Lol
Not sure if anyone has answered yet but a "suitcase" drum is the same as an "anchor" drum. They're used for running anchors on offshore Derek barges, lay barges, handling anchors for dive boats ECT. It's a smaller wire that connects to the larger anchor wire. Allowing you to pull it on deck and shackle in the main pinet wire.
Thank you for watching Jay. Please consider Subscribing if you haven't already. I try to post new content every Tuesday.
Ok but that doesn't explain why it's called something with suitcase. Edit: I see that Carmel Pule' a few posts down had a plausible explanation for the origin of the name.
It's not as easy to explain as it would be why port is on the left and starboard (steeringboard) on the right. But when running anchors the bouy has to be decked and secured it is often times refered to the suitcase wire of the buoy. One winch grabs the bouy the other, the anchor. Anchor drum....suitcase drum
Hi Captain Tim, I know what Kort nozzles are because I watched your video that explains them. Thanks. Keep up the good work. Ha! In a later video you explain why that 2nd winch is called a "suitcase drum". I forget the details myself, I guess I need to find your video again and watch it again.
Thank you for watching Mellissa. Tye first ones were developed in the Gulf of Mexico. There was an add on winch like a suitcase. CUOTO
Noisy marine engines are a wonderful sound. Definitely your camera work gets better with each video. I really do love seeing on the engines, mechanicals and general inner workings of a the boats you command.
Thank you so much Andrew. I really appreciate it. I am trying to get better.
TimBatSea You’re doing great.
I used similar engines on locomotives on the railroad, very interesting.

This was interesting

Another great video :)
Thank you so much.
From Pacific Maritime Magazine: The Suitcase Drum packs 150 feet of 1-inch diameter wire rope at the ready for making up tows. It's 28,150 lbs. line pull at 81 feet per minute speed allows the rope to be quickly tensioned once the line is made fast on the tow. The Suitcase Drum functions best with towing alongside making best use of the tugs' ASD's to control tows in heavily-trafficked restricted waters.
Thank you for watching and looking this up, although I believe what you have found is the specs on a suitcase drum on a particular boat. Since posting that video, I have learned that the name comes from the gulf of Mexico where it was common to need an extra winch for certain jobs (anchor handling). But later other boats wanted a second winch and the suitcase was a second winch that could be installed on whichever boat needed it. Like a suitcase.
I love them big engines
Thank you for watching. CUOTO

I work at a 5MGD Reverse Osmosis Water Treatment Plant. We have to wear hearing protection, too. I figured you had the little foam ear plugs. Nice videos.

When I was on my companies off shore tug we used Norman pins and a safety chain to keep the wire down and about mid stern of the boat. It seems like a Texas bar is less dangerous than trying to put on chaffing gear when the weather gets rough
I think you are correct, but I have never used them myself. Thank you for watching and please consider subscribing if you haven't already.
Another great video.. Now I know what you call them.. a Texas bar... we call them bridles here in Melbourne Australia.. well that's what I've always heard them called and call them... as I was reffering to in another one of your videos earlier today ... yes I'm binging your vids.. ~;0) .. great stuff.
So pleased that you are enjoying them Tim. CUOTO
This tug is so clean
Thank you James. The chief sure does a good job keeping it in order. CUOTO
Great video. Saw that engine room I thought I was back in the navy....shine it must work it might..Not your tug. Looks fresh from the yard.Tell your Engineers good job on the ship shape clean engine room. Miss some of it not the 14 day tow , over and back.

That Intercon winch. is a classic double drum winch, with, in this case, the port drum is being used as a suitcase drum, as opposed to towing a second barge (tandem towing)). As to the origin of the term....I do not know.
Thank you for watching.
I did ask another old timer who told me he thought the term came from looping a mooring buoy or something like that with the bitter end of the suitcase wire and bringing it back aboard. Then moving it to another location and dropping the bitter end of the suitcase wire and letting it run free. Thus you could drop something off like a “suitcase”.
@@tomsummers1137 interesting. I haven't heard that before. Thank you brother.
The description could say the following:- The tug's towing gear consists of an Intercon, double drum, DD-175, towing the main winch. Outfitted with 2,000(ft) of 2.25(in) diameter, stainless steel, towing wire. The "suitcase" drum is equipped with 1000(ft) of 1.25(in) towing wire. ( note suitcase drum smaller in size and not always a permanent one) Now about the suitcase drum, this is normally smaller and in some tugboats, it is an additional item that could be taken off and packed up to install at another location on a different tug. The origin term comes from musicians playing drums which needed to be transportable to do a few shows at different locations on the same night and perhaps the drums and foldable stands were a little smaller which could be packed up in a small suitcase. The following video of a 'Suitcase Drum portable kit' may give an idea of the relation of the roundness of a tug's towing drum to that of a musician smaller playing the portable percussion drum/set. kzhead.info/sun/aKhxmMiOroWblZs/bejne.html
Thank you for watching. That video is an older one, and the suitcase drum mystery has been solved. LOL Great video link. Thank you for sharing. CUOTO
Another great video, Tim! Thanks!!! Love hearing the details on the winch setup. One question: how is the winch locked down once the tow cable is fully payed out? Is there some kind of braking system or lock mechanism? Finally, i want to second all the positive comments about your demeanor. I come to your channel to sponge up all the fascinating technical details, but i stay here and enjoy it all the more because of your calm and positive approach. Keep up the great work!!!
Thank you for the kind words and for watching. I really appreciate it.
Bro gave you a canned response
@@avman2cl that wasn't a canned response.
@@TimBatSea well I'm interested in your answer to his question. I also enjoyed your video.
Oh shoot! You are correct! I now see what you are talking about and missed answering the question. I'm very sorry. Ok... So the winches (on the 3000s and 4200s) have a huge brake band that goes around the diameter of the winch drum. Both can be "dogged down" too but that is rarely done except in very bad weather.
Interesting stuff, thank you.

That engine room is super clean and organized! Love it! I learned so much... winch placement in relation to rudder, Texas bars and donuts, safety chains... Great stuff! Question: The John Deere winch motor... does that power a hydraulic pump which in turn operates the tow winch or is it an electrically powered winch motor? Also, the company you work for... I see their tugs on the Hudson River often. But you're in Florida... This company, are they all up and down the east coast?
Thank you for watching. The winch is not electric. The one on my usual boat is hydraulic. The ones on the bigger boats have a transmission and a super big chain that goes up to the winch on deck. And yes, the unnamed company I work for has boats on the East coast, gulf of Mexico, Caribbean and the west Coast. Thank you for watching and please consider subscribing if you haven't already.

Nice engine room, Tim... The big drum wire is about the size of the drag cable on the Lima 2400 Draglines I ran in the rock quarries in Miami I the early 1970’s... BTW, I never Thought about the turning problem when turning IF the drum is farther aft 😱😳😎👍🤷🏻♂️

I love how some people are experts and think they know your job better than you do. Unscescribe or don’t watch the video if you don’t like what he has to say. You need to be wearing gloves so you don’t get dirty, safety glasses so a kamikaze fly doesn’t dive bomb your eyes, no safety life vest or harness, a gust of wind could take you off the boat. I Enjoy your videos, I always enjoy the water, just never lived near a port or ocean.

Good morning Tim , thank you for the video and engine room tour, interesting. Get the idea of the doughnuts!! and safety chain. Do you ever use rollers?? Anyway Take Care and catch you next time 👍😎🇬🇧.
Thank you for watching. I assume you mean the vertical rollers that extend out of the transom on some Tugboats? In that case, no. You see those on anchor handling tugs and offshore, big horse power tugs without a Texas Bar and a wire that is on deck. Cheers.

Great information. How about some video of what it is like in weather conditions? Great videos.
Thank you for watching. There are at least two reasons why filming what you ask will be difficult. The camera never shows the waves as they are and during tough times, videoing is very low on my priority list. Then there is the issue that employers might not like emoloyees posting less than positive and high drama on social media. But I guess the easiest thing to say is that we don't see alot of bad or interesting weather because safety of life and cargo we move.
