A self unloader is what the name suggests. A vessel that can unload itself. So what is the history of self unloaders, how do they work and what are the different types?

Ore from the Mesabi and Cuyuna ranges in Minnesota often was sticky and would not have flowed into a self unloading system, delaying the adoption of self unloaders in the iron ore trade. In the 70's and 80's ore production was shifted to iron ore pellets that flow very well. Self unloader conversions soon followed and new ships were built as self unloaders.

I wish I knew this when I was making my video! Thank you for bringing this to my attention!

You did a superb job with this video. In just over 8 minutes, you covered a whole boatload of information succinctly and made it interesting. I'm always up for some shipping history! This is a great place to come for that.
