Once the Army Corp of Engineers got involved, I thought it would be weeks, not months, before they got traffic moving again. Amazing job!

No longshoreman was involved in getting the Balsa 94 under way. That job is done by the Line Handlers Association. I'm glad to see the MV Carmen get out. She's the last ship we worked on Monday the 25th. She's heading to Manzanillo Port.

They are all travelling light meaning no cargo. What impresses me is the tug pulling ship while going astern. I watched tugs in the Cuyahoga river in Cleveland before the ore boats had thrusters in the old days and never saw a tug pulling astern. Great video. You're the guy to go too. Thanks.

Thank you for this, very interested as a homebound ole lady from Northern Michigan, that loves ships!!😊😊😊😊

The Dali is so massive compared to the other ships that bridge didn’t stand a chance with that collision

From the divers to the top bosses a job well done!!👍

There was a giant cell tower in my Seattle industrial yard for 15 years. Every few years they'd shut it down for a week or so while retrofitting antennas, and equipment in the bunker. Each time they parked a truck just like that one next to the site, ran some fat cables to it, and had security guys guard it 24/7.

Hi Jeff. Great video. Keep ‘em coming. Minor correction Christine Wormuth is Secretary of the Army and Carlos Del Toro is Secretary of the Navy. Cheers!

I literally just watched those ships go through from my work. The ship in our port needs at least 42' to get out

Also did you know where their ironically dropping off all the steal from the Key bridge. And Sparrows Point about a half a mile up the river is where Francis Scott Key wrote The Star-Spangled banner

Excellent update Jeff. Thanks for posting.

Love the narration.. thanks. really amazing to see that they opened it up.. Well done USA & Baltimore!

VERY METICULOUS CLEARANCE...GOOD WORKS..

I really pray they are able to find the two remaining lost souls.

Thanks for the update, Jeff. You are doing a GREAT job!

Good video Jeff but, a couple points. The black color on vehicles means nothing. Locally, it could be the Sheriff's Office, local Police, State or just a comms vehicle. We have a vehicle like that with the same external equipment that can tie radio frequencies together to make everyone can talk to one another. Since they are mostly from different companies, they may not have each others frequencies so these vehicles allow the tying together of different frequencies so they can all communicate with one another. It reduces the chance of accidents, safety issues, comms issues and increases communication, effectiveness and efficiency.

Thank you jeff for the update nice work 💯👍👍👍🫡

You are the standard for Key Bridge information.

Great work, Brother! You are my go-to guy for reliable information on this tragedy!

I’ve definitely seen Wallnius ships in the harbor often-they’re often visible at dock from 95 and 895 near the tunnel entrances. Car carriers I believe…

Jeff, As a rule of thumb, a ship needs to be moving at about 5 to 6 knots to have full control of the rudder. My, guess is there was a long discussion regarding the 5-knot speed limit going past the M/V Dali. Judging from the videos I think the tug on the bow was acting as an attached escort. Judging from the videos it appears that the towline from the tug to the bow was slack. She was there for assurance. It is hard to tell if the stern tug was providing assistance or was there for assurance. You can't tell if her towline was taut or slack. It is somewhat surprising she was so close to the ship. I would have thought they'd have better leverage if they were further away from the ship, particularly if they needed to stop the ship. I am sure that there are far wiser people making the decisions than me. You mentioned surprise that they were releasing the tugs so soon after passing the Dali. Once past Dali, there would be very little chance of the vessel striking the Dali. As for a similar incident occurring, it is unlikely that a ship transiting in the area is going to have an issue. The ship crews are going to be aware of the Dali and will be diligent in their inspections, maintenance, and testing of gear. My guess is the USCG's Officer in Charge Marine Inspection (OCMI) staff are conducting very thorough inspections before allowing arrivals or departures. If you look at marine transportation as a whole you will find it to be very safe. Yes, there are accidents and there will be accidents in the future. But if you look at the amount of cargo moved and the distance it is moved (ton-miles), and the number of incidents, shipping on the water is very safe. Bob

👍🏻😎 great show Jeff .

Hey Mr Jeff wonderful vid. I actually had a lump in my throat watching those three ships come out of port. I lived in MD for 10 years and went over that bridge more than a few times. That was one high bridge. I am happy for the folks onboard to be finally heading out and hopefully to their families. Please keep the vid updates coming.

You're doing a great job with this bridge info. Thanks

You're doing a Hell of a Job Jeff, please continue with the videos. Great job by these professionals, so far I haven't heard of anybody getting hurt during this complicated job. Can't wait to see how they handle the roadway on the Dali's Deck.

Thanks as always from Australia, Jeff.

Tugs front and rear sounds like a plan for the forseable future. Heck the tug operators will love it.

Outstanding video once again.

Another great job, Jeff....

Jeff, excellent coverage! Thanks for your hard work. Notice these ships are riding high.

when they start to dismantle the bridge section laying on top of the Dali is going to be something to see the stresses that are on that section sheer, torsion forces make it a particularly challenging to workers to cut sections off of it

FYI - The Balsa 94 is headed for St. John, New Brunswick, Canada.

It's interesting watching all the different steps they have to take to clean up such a mess and maybe one good thing to come of this is more use of tugboats

Nicely done,,thanks for sharing..😊

a work well done !!

GREAT VIDEO! Love your channel

🇺🇸Jeff🇺🇸 You Are Awesome Thanks for All Your Great Work on Your Videos🤗🤗 Chris and Rick From Chicago ❤

Fantastic work Amen

Great job guys

They will be allowing some cargo ships into the port tonight.

missed opportunity to use clip from Empire Strikes Back - "The first transport is away"

Hi Jeff: Thank you for keeping us updated with daily videos. BTW, when you talk about 35 feet and 50 feet depth, is that a measure at High Tide or Low Tide? Thanks.

Excellent news!!

Just a note on removing the sections on Dali. On an update on Sal's channel when he went over the Unified Command timeline, it looks like they will use shaped charges to slice up the sections on Dali. With the huge stresses on those sections, I think that's a smart move.

Well, those bridge pillons should have been upgraded with dolphins 3 years ago with the Build Back Better but it went to youcrane. I.m pretty sure with a short research, theres few bridges that are under protected and wont be upgraded.

A little snippet of the protracted history of the creation of the Francis Scott Bridge: For YEARS there was an ongoing battle between the MDOT and Bethlehem Steel over the building of ACCESS highways to the bridge. As you see in the recycle process, the former Steel Mill grounds (3,300 sq Ft) dominates the shoreline. The Steel Mill did NOT want “disruptive “at grade” access Highways ON THEIR GROUNDS. So it took a proverbial “20 years” before they settled on ELEVATED access highways. All of this history is almost 60 years ago. And became a moot issue with the closure (and eventual demolition) of the Steel Mill. I hope this explanation helps provide some historical perspective on why it took FOREVER to bring the bridge to reality. And sadly now it’s gone,,, Respectfully, S. Collins, Towson, MD

A good day on the way to recovery. Kudos to all the workers risking themselves to clear the wreckage.

Nice opening shot. The size comparison to the Dali shows what ocean going ship size is going through.

Awesome! A lot more work ahead though.

awesome job

Very good!

These people work hard whit the small means they have to use... Respect for them.

Some very dedicated smart hard working people making this happen with some first class tech and old fashion hard work

Thanks Jeff. great update. Really enjoy watching the tug boats help the big guys out of the port never been around a port or water vessels, so such enjoy your coverage. Are they more ships needing to get out and are they going to allow some more ships to come into the docks? I thought all big ships had to have tug boats steer them out of ports till they were clear of obstacles?

The first ship looked like a small boat as compared to the Dali cargo ship. Good to see at least a few ships moving out.

Called it. Tugs FORE and AFT. Lock the Stable Door! The Horse has Bolted!

Awesome video

Good report! As a Baltimore expatriate I still love the old Monumental City!

Great Channel Jeff. Anyway to could post a link to that Stream site. A quick Google search bring's up so many. I'd like to see that site you use. Thank you in advance.

Amazing, just a week after the bridge collapse the harbour is opening up again. Notice the tug boats that were totally absent when the Dali was out of control and caused the bridge collapse

Flowers on irene... you had me rolling😂 yep it tricked me lol. Awesome video yet again

Considering the amount of work and risks they got that done quickly ,can't wait to see the work on the fragments of bridge on the ship then the removal of the ship

I like that the tugs are still at the ship rather than just saying see ya...good luck like they did to the Dali

Hi Jeff. thanks for doing these films for us in the uk. Why does the front tug go backwards? caroline

Balsa 94 is unloaded but great job of all involved to get it done

Wow, thats 1/4 the size, yet quite a large ship where I live. The Dali must be Mega - Ship.

I can't say I blame the ship owners for wanting them to get moving. They've been stuck in there for a month. Thanks for sharing.

Surprised not to see crew cheering but they were prob nervous about finally clearing channel after a long delay. Great job! (Delaware native, VA resident with lots of familiarity w Balt bridges)

I think you are right on the money when you said you think they are keeping the ships in the new channel just to the side of where the workers vehicles fell and ended up. If you look at the video of the collaspe while you have your video up, the area where the ship is coming through seems to be just to the left of where is looks like the vehicles ended up in the water. That pier you mentioned of having the trusses wrapped around it is the area where the vehicles ended up in the water.

The balsa draught is 16.9 feet

Well done - to open a limited access chanel at Baltimore Key Bridge site - with 2 tugs and a harbour escort vesselon first ship (and tugs req'd for each movement thru the temp chanel) !

Jeff, to remember Port and Starboard. Port - the sweet wine... There is no more Port LEFT! Port is left and Port Wine is red! The red light shows Port side, on the left!

Saw all 3 of those ships on the StreamTime feed. More interesting sped up on your report. I wonder, if the Unified Command has considered using flotation devices, together with cranes to lift and stabilize those remaining sections in a coordinated effort. Everytime I try to imagine cutting and lifting, I visualize part of the truss dropping into the water mostly out of sight, and the bow of the Dali becoming more buoyant and rising up. Going to be interesting what they come up with to pull this off. And you can bet I'll be keeping it dialed in right here. Love your style of coverage Jeff.

I believe the truck on bridge is a wi fi Hotspot for the members on the Dali to keep in contact with family and interpertor.

It'll be interesting to watch them remove all the truss work lying on top of the Dali!

. it's reassuring to see the tugs take these ships out. I suspect they will churn up the bottom much less than the large ship propellers. That's good for any recovery work as well as displacement of known materials that have yet to be removed.

Can you do a video on the hw 50 bridge closure / damage

Great video keep up the good work I know that he's going to be a slow progress but I'm sure the government is doing their very best and all the workers arounding this place goes smoothly I pray to God to everyone who's working on the bridge be safe at all times the other thing they should use tugboots to let the ships go through and pass the bridge any boat has any difficulty then should use it tugboat night

Your video are great

not to forget that many of the crew were detained and not allowed to go ashore because their shore pass (I-94) was expired and immigration was just not up to it to give them some extention. On the second the vessel the crew was imprisoned for 2 weeks..........

Awesome

AGREE 110% TUG STAYING WITH THE SHIP BIT LONGER !!!~~~~ NO SHOPPING CHANNEL ???????

Will you look at that there's a tugboat escorting the ship out of the harbor is it an amazing look I grew up in New Orleans right there by the Mississippi

Hi Jeff, Did the GOVIS ship ever get settled? It's the one that is shipping Cars. Is it going to Port? Or going out? Thanks, Terry

I think the reason why the channel is further south than originally depicted is because it then allows any vessels involved in working on the bridge to be able to go between each side of where the bridge fell. This would be more difficult if the marked channel was further towards the pier to the north because then vessels working on the bridge cleanup would have to pass closer to the disabled ship and unstable truss.

Need more focus on Ocean Gate Titan

YEAH!!!!!

That Balsa 94 looks in rough shape 😭

I'm surprised that you didn't comment about how lightly loaded that ship looks as it is riding so high in the water.

that would be crazy to drive through there with all that still there.

I'm impressed myself there is hope here in Maryland maybe?

Amen!

Thank you. It seems to me this is the area that everyone says the missing workers trucks should be in. Anyone know differently? Thanks. Ok. I just saw you mentioned them. Thank you.

Question: Will that ship be able to go after the removal or do you know if that's going to be towed to a ship yard? All haz mat material on there. Right? Do we know if any haz mat was leaked into the bay?

Does anyone know the status of the crew on-board the Dali? Last I heard they were stuck on the ship.

Duh? The "mystery" truck. It's most likely the central command local operations center with communication to their technical support.

That balsa 94's water lines are extremely high I wonder if it had to leave empty just to get out, or it's able to get out because it's unladen

I would be looking off my right side if I was a captain at that chunk of metal bridge angling down underneath my ship wondering if I still might hit it because you can’t tell how far down and deep it’s going and how far out. I’m sure they’re using all kinds of technology to make sure that that area is open but heck, I’d still be nervous.

Are the crew on the Dali going to have to stay onboard until they move it? I would like to know more about how the crew is holding up not being able to work.
