Ship Pilot Showing Amazing Skill in Narrow Channel 

Life's good when you have thrusters fwd and aft.

Bow thrusters have changed everything.

Respect. 👌

...when you scream around dead man's curve & tell your passenger "Hold my beer & ya better not spill it !"

"Bet you $10 it won't fit"

It's the sheer speed he does it in that impresses me the most

Twin screw, bow thruster, almost nothing to it the wind is not blowing, but still good. I was captain on Ro/Ro ships for many years. No bow thruster but with twin screws, and we had amazing maneuverability. You have to know your ship and the water / local conditions.

For seafarers, this is excellent peace of manoeuvre.

Impressive judgement by the Pilot. He sure earned his money.

A lot can be done with bow thrusters. A bus driver steering a long bus with only front wheels turning through a tight corner, now that's impressive

Yes there;s a pilot onboard but the Capt is navigating this ship!

My wife can't even do that with a 7ft long Toyota

Bow and stern thrusters make it a lot easier.

Oh hell, with the bow thrusters even I could pilot that thing! Yeah right! 🤣 Nice piloting skills. Knowing HOW and WHEN to use the available equipment is what defines the operator. 👍

Captain has Drifting degree.

Now THAT is some driving right there....brilliant.

In real time it took a bit longer but I'll give a big thumbs up to that captain or pilot navigator or whatever he's called great job ! 👍👍

This made a driving instructor VERY happy.

Anything is possible here. This is the river that caught fire!

Captain be like “Is this spot taken? Don’t mind if I do.”
