Heres a little flight I did on a 1004' (306m) Mesabi Miner self discharging bulk carrier as It entered the Duluth, MN Port.

That's one long ship bro, no e video.

Must be a bitch to dock it.

Would love to see him parallel park it.

Great video, nice subject

You would be surprised to see how easily they dock these large ships. Ill do a video of that one day in the future.

Thanks TheLazyC  glad you enjoyed it.

I'd love to know when that ship is making Wilmington DE again. It'd be cool to catch a video of it at the other end of it's journey. Wilmington is less than an hour away from here...

Sorry Jeff Millard you will never see it in Willmington DE ever. At 1004 feet (306m) its too large to travel through the Welland Canal that connects Lake Erie to the lowest lake, Lake Ontario. Probably another reason it was built in Lorain, Ohio.

There is a web site Boat Nerd that has a tracker map. Allows you to see ships realtime. I know it covers the Great Lakes, not sure about the ocean coast.

Very cool video

Great video - especially the close-up shots around the stern of the ship.  The sheer size of those monster vessels!   Thanks for the share.

I was worried about going around that stern, so many seagulls looking for a meal. The size is pretty unreal. Its impressive watching these ships navigate and dock. I know I'm impressed.

You're welcome

I'm surprised the guy looking astern spotted you - just one seagull amongst the many

I think he first wave off to the side was to the people lining the canla and watching the ship entering the port. Second wave might have been at me. I did have the lights on. I think the drone is easily spotted among seagulls. The drone glides.... doesn't have that spastic flapping going on
