Oh they have live camera at Ft. MADISON on the river. Yes I understand that not as large of tow boat up there but still beautiful to see pluss trains swinging bridge too. Thanks take care and stay safe.
They have forward and reverse propulsion on all three. The wheels are stationery and steered by directing the water with rudders forward and behind of the wheels(propellers). Zdrive the propellers spin 360
Thanks Toby enjoyed your video ..the views are stunning, and quite interesting. Thanks for telling us about the difference between the two types of drives. And isn't that the way great handling but no push when you need. Haha go figure. The song like you planned that one lol. Thanks again Topy.
