Cairo to New Orleans on the M/V William Strait. August 2015 

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

That was fun watching again thankyou for the share.. and yes a beautiful morning lol

Awesome video, welcome back.

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

Elegant old vessel, looks like the old A.D. Haynes which used to be with ACBL.

beautiful mornin'

Buen video capitan con cuantas barcazas estaban navegando ese dia

LET ER RIP TATER CHIP... GOOD VIDEO CAPT. GLAD YOUR BACK , LET GO TUG BOATING!!!

I never knew all weren't covered. Doesn't matter if it rains?

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.

I have Not seen any of your videos Before January 2016...!,

Love to watch you handle a big tow!

Enjoyed the explanation, Speck, Dads nick name . I'll bet that was because he start were spectacles lol/ glasses. Thanks Guys enjoyed the beautiful morning

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.

is that queen of Mississippi over taking ?? I've seen a.d Haynes on upper Mississippi, so does valley voyager and valley transporter ..they were good old boat! did you heard Delta Queen return to the river ? get her on the video when she start cruising next March,by the way Kyle I like your video keep coming !

capt kyle what program is on the long hp screen with the predictor?

Hey Cap'n, I heard the William Strait sank today following a collision with the Margaret Ann just south of the I-55 bridge in Memphis. Have you any info as to what happened?

When I had cancer I got to ride on the Keith darling had a good time
