  1. TUG This is the most amazing display of seamanship you will ever see!!!!!! Enjoy!

  2. The tugboat is approaching the bridge with barges loaded with coal.

  3. This frame gives you an idea of how fast the river is running -obviously at or near flood stage.  

  4. OH NO!!! The bridge didn't open, and the boat can't stop.  Notice that the tug has released the barges. He is backing as hard as possible to try and avoid a collision with the bridge.

  5. Can't back down enough against the current.

  6. Uh Oh! ! The current has swung the boat around sideways.

  7. The cook thinks maybe something isn't quite right.

  8. The boss is going to be REAL mad!

  9. The Tug is going under the bridge!!

  10. Uh.... Boss?  You ain't gonna believe what we just did! 

  11. The Tug came out the other side!!

  12. She's low, but the flag is still flying.

  13. The wheelhouse door and the door in the second deck are now open.

  14. Look closely at the bottom right and side of the picture and you will see that the bridge guardrail is underwater.

  15. Look at the water pouring out of the second deck doorway.

  16. The working deck is still underwater, but rising.

  17. The company that built this Tug should get the Government contractto build our battle ships. (And cruisers like the Titanic).

  18. Notice anything unusual?  Look at the smoke coming from the exhausts. This thing is running!!!

  19. Notice the propwash at the rear of the tug. The boat is upright and back under power. Ho Hum. Just another day on the river.Do you suppose the captain had to change his pants after all that?
