Few Ship Videos

These are phenomenal videos! It'd go so far to say that it looks like the Myron C. Taylor in the Fitzgerald video. The old Eugene W. Pargny is in there too. So cool!

Thank you for sharing!! In the Fitz video the Bradley boat has open hatches and coal piled several feet above the combings. These are real treasures.

Really enjoyed the Homer video, especially seeing her arrive Taconite Harbor and loading.

Looks like the Whaleback Meteor at around the 21 minute mark on the Fitzgerald video.

That Building of Fitzgerald is great. Also, lots of "days gone by" boats passing by the shipyard going up and down the river. One was the Stanley.

Here is a link to a video of the launching of the Herbert C. Jackson and Arthur B. Homer. It also includes the maiden voyage of the Homer. A few other ships are shown in operation, including the Reserve, Chicago Tribune, and Cliffs Victory.

Here is another one showing the construction of the Edmund Fitzgerald that also has part of what appears to be it maiden voyage through the locks. There are a few other ships, including the E. B. Barber and what appears to be a Bradley steamer and the Detroit Edison:

There may be more shipping related videos on that site, but I haven't had to time to check.
