I couldn't help but notice that there were 2 other larger tugs that appeared briefly near the end of the video. Looks like they MIGHT have been trying to aid the troubled tug. I'm pretty sure I read "Marquette" on both of them


Not sure if serious

Would be hilarious if not joking

the engine room, not the deck, there's only one or two guys down there, and he's supposed to keep the door shut while he's in there and close it after he leaves the room, specifically because of that possibility. if the boat starts going over and the engine room doors are shut it slows down the capsize and gives the rest of the crew more time to get into safety gear and off the boat



We never closed and dogged the engine room doors.

Has the woman piloting the tug been identified?

Like I said, I'm sure they were out there trying to help, but....
