'JO-EL III' ✅, Do You Also Think 'ARKLOW ABBEY' Will Never Fit Through? -  

attribute such to a unique and visually striking thumbnail photo and video content. since you live in Holland why not a busy canal? :) well done.

@@Hugh-Glass nice to read you like it! :)

@@ShipSpottingNederland thank you. I do like it

1.1 million now 😀

Slightly more surprising than the excellent steering... is the bow thruster above the waterline. I know a cargo will take the line down... but it still makes no sense... currently

The ship was build in The Netherlands for Arklow Shipping in Ireland indeed..

Thanks... that makes sense. The shipyard is still here👍🏼

Sometimes they hit something i think..

that is the sound of the bow thrusters

Thank you very much, it's nice to know you liked it too!

That's nice, i would like to see Arklow in Ireland, i mean the city ;)

Brand new indeed zeus 5029!

Zo kijk ik er ook altijd naar als ik aan het filmen/ monteren ben.. :)

Goeie vraag, ik weet het niet precies.. good question, i don't know exactly Jedilz)..

it's on a canal system, not a river system. Water's moved more by wind than by flow.

I think you are very lucky!

You're welcome, thank you for watching Misran!

by car its about 30 minutes drive to the ocean i dont know how long it will take by boat its build on the shipyard my dad works ad heres the vid of the ship going into the water ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Tuk5xRQGnLw.html

At least 35 Miles Keith!

if you think passing a couple of bridges with centimeters to spare (there's several more on the route to the sea locks at Delfzijl) is hairy, watch her launch: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-Ar72ruWay-o.html

Absolutely..

Thank you so much!

the sea locks at the city of Delfzijl.

Bedankt, doen we! 😉

The sounds i think if cavitation of the tugs propeller

Thank you for your nice story G Howard, i love it!

Bass Lake is 6000m2? :0

Thank you for the tip Wilco!

I don't know..

Did you mean in the video? Because i always add the description under the videos on my RU-vid-channel. If you are watching it on a television, you will not see it indeed...

Good question, but I don't how they do it, I just film the whole procedure.. :)

Radio communications, either from the lead tug or from the ship's bridge.

@@buggsy5 Thanks, buggsy. I thought about that, and felt it would be very challenging. My only experience is with 20 metre British narrowboats, but on British narrow canals you do a lot of the same kind of thing as the tug is doing, steering from the stern through gaps just centimetres wider than the boat, and I know how very difficult it is to instruct a novice steerer in how to 'hit the gap' - "left a bit, no not that much, go back to your right, further, no, not that far, a bit left - LEFT"... CRUNCH. British narrowboats are built to take that sort of collision without damage, but Arklow Abbey presumably isn't. I had therefore wondered if there was another way - if they do actually do it based only on oral guidance by radio, they deserve even more credit than appears from the vid. Oh, and I forgot the first time to say: Many thanks, ShipSpotting Nederland, great vid.

Thank you Neil!

Dat is Waterhuizen!

I don't understand

Het blijft altijd spannend, ook voor de professionals

Waterhuizen in The Netherlands!

@@ShipSpottingNederland Oh thanks, I didn't know there were this type of waterways in this part of the country. This waterway seems to be well connected to others, to the sea and to Germany too

@@nanba25 Indeed!

Cool!

Volgens mij geen schade hoor...

Thank you for your nice story Stevie Athers.! :)

That's right and thank you for watching, greetings to you too and i love your videos! 👍 👋

More of these ships are coming your way, because they are building right now :)

@@ShipSpottingNederland I look forward to seeing them

@@shanegalvin3971 me too!

And Cork Shane!

We get a lot in our port, they used to have Irish crews which were always ok but now they tend to have crews from all over the place who aren’t so good!

Wauw!

Thank you for watching Paul!

Wat is daar mee?

@@ShipSpottingNederland Ik bedoel , wat is de locatie op Beverwijk ?

@@edwinedwin9433 dit was niet in Beverwijk..

Winschoterdiep ten zuiden van de stad Groningen.
