List of 1 Long 2 Short Video Descriptions

This is a list shown of all of 1 Long 2 Short's descriptions on videos.

## Buffalo - Departure from Duluth - August 2015

Here is the Great Lakes carrier Buffalo, departing from Duluth, Minnesota early in the afternoon of August 2, 2015. The Buffalo was built in 1978 and is 634 feet long. She typically picks up iron ore pellets while visiting Duluth and often delivers her cargo to Cleveland. She doesn't appear to be fully loaded in this instance, judging by how high she is riding in the water. Please excuse a little shakiness in the video, since it was a windy day and my tripod wasn't quite up to the job for keeping the camera perfectly steady. Wait for the end of the video and you'll hear the Captain of the Buffalo salute the Aerial Lift Bridge.

## Federal Oshima - Arrival in Duluth - August 2015

Here is the salt water vessel Federal Oshima, arriving in Duluth, Minnesota on the afternoon of August 2, 2015. The Federal Oshima is registered to Hong Kong and was built in 1999, with a length of 200 meters (roughly 650 feet). She appears to be empty on arrival and was likely in Duluth to pick up grain.

## Rt. Hon. Paul J. Martin - Departure from Duluth - August 2015

Here is the Rt. Hon. Paul J. Martin departing from Duluth, Minnesota on August 2, 2015. She was build in 1973 and is 740 feet long, sailing under the Canadian flag. Check out this channel for other shipping videos from Duluth, Minnesota.

## John G. Munson - Arrival in Duluth - August 2015

Here is the John G. Munson arriving in Duluth, Minnesota at 1:30am on August 3, 2015. The Munson was built in 1952 and is currently 768 feet long (after having been lengthened in 1976 an additional 102 feet). Duluth is her home port and she loads iron ore pellets to deliver, and often returns carrying limestone. Since this was an early morning arrival, the Munson didn't give a traditional salute to the bridge. But she sounded her whistle later in the day when she departed Duluth. (That video can also be seen on this channel.) Even thought the video is dark, it gives a good feeling of what it's like to see these ships enter port at night. The late night visit also allowed me some time at the north pier lighthouse, to capture it against the starry sky. One of my photos from that night is included at the end of the video.

## Lee Tregurtha - Arrival in Duluth - August 2015

Here is the Lee A. Tregurtha arriving in Duluth, Minnesota on August 3, 2015. This was a 4:00am arrival, so I truly was the only one in Canal Park to watch this arrival (other than the bridge operator, of course). The Lee A. Tregurtha was built in 1942 and originally served (under the name USS Chiwawa) as a re-fueling ship in World War II. She earned two battle stars in the war, and her battle ribbons are displayed on the side of the pilot house. She was converted to become a bulk carrier after the war and is currently 826 feet long (after two lengthening rebuilds).

## Baie Comeau - Arrival in Duluth - August 2015

Here is the great lakes bulk carrier Baie Comeau, arriving in Duluth, Minnesota on August 3, 2015. The Baie Comeau is one of the newest boats on the Great Lakes, having been built in 2013. She is the 4th of the Trillium Class ships built for the Canadian Steamship Line (even if steam has little to do with these ships) and is 739 feet in length. Be sure to check out my channel for several other arrivals and departures from the Duluth, Minnesota harbor.

## John G. Munson - Departure from Duluth - August 2015

Here is the John G. Munson, departing from Duluth on the afternoon of August 3, 2015. She had come in at 1:30am earlier that day... and the video of that arrival can be see elsewhere on this channel. The Munson was built in 1952 and is 768 feet long. She is powered by a 7700 horsepower steam turbine.

## Whitefish Bay - Arrival in Duluth - August 2015

The Whitefish Bay is one of the newest ships on the Great Lakes, having been built in 2013. She is the second of four Trillium Class vessels to be built and is 740 feet long. She flies the Canadian flag. Be sure to check out many other Duluth arrivals and departures on this channel.

## Bluebill - Departure from Duluth - August 2015

Here is the bulk carrier Bluebill departing from Duluth, Minnesota on the evening of August 3, 2015. The Bluebill was built in 2004 and flies the flag of Cyprus. She is 200 meters long, which is just over 650 feet. The video is a bit dark in places, but it's still cool to watch these huge ships glide through the night.

## Philip R. Clarke - Arrival in Duluth - August 2015

Catching up on some of my 2015 videos I haven't yet uploaded, here is the Philip R. Clarke arriving in Duluth on August 4, 2015. She was built in 1952 and is 767 feet long. She often brings limestone into Duluth and will pick up a cargo of iron ore pellets for the return journey.

## American Spirit - Departure from Duluth - August 2015

Here is the American Spirit departing from Duluth, MN on August 4, 2015. She was built in 1978 and is one of the proud fleet of 1000-foot ships that travel the Great Lakes... 1004 feet to be exact.

## Hon. James L. Oberstar - Arrival in Duluth - August 2015

Here's yet another ship arrival from August 4, 2015 - this time the Hon. James L. Oberstar. She was built in 1959 and is 806 feet long. She previously was named the Shenango II (from 1959-1967) and the Charles M. Beeghly (1967-2011).

## American Century - Departure from Duluth - October 2016

Here is the bulk carrier American Century departing from Duluth, Minnesota on the morning of October 11, 2016. She was built in 1981 and is 1000 feet in length, typically hauling coal and iron ore.

## Mesabi Miner - Arrival in Duluth - October 2016

Here is the Mesabi Miner arriving in Duluth, Minnesota on the afternoon of October 11, 2016. The Miner is 1000 feet in length and was launched on Valentine's Day in 1977. She typically carries iron ore and is a frequent visitor to Duluth. Music: White Lotus Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com) Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 3.0

## Algolake - Departure from Duluth - September 2016

The Algolake is captured here departing under stormy skies in the early evening hours of September 21, 2016. What's not readily visible is the amount of lightning present while the Algolake made her departure. My apologies for the slightly shaky camera work, as I was late in arriving to Canal Park and didn't have time to set up the tripod. Plus the wind was pretty strong, so just standing still was a challenge. In the distance you can see the Paul R. Tregurtha making her arrival to Duluth just as the Algolake departs. The Tregurtha arrival video will be posted in the near future. Music: Soaring Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com) Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 3.0

## Herbert C. Jackson - First Sea Trial in Duluth After Repowering

Here is the Herbert C. Jackson heading out of a foggy Duluth Harbor on September 22, 2016 for her first sea trials following the re-powering that took place at Fraser Shipyard. She was the last steam-powered ship in the Interlake fleet, but is now powered with two MaK 6-cylinder M32E diesel engines. An end of an era for certain, but this re-powering will help ensure she sails the Great Lakes for many years to come. This video capture the start of her first voyage with her new engines. It was a short voyage, ending only an hour or two later (which I would have stuck around for, had I known she was returning). Evidently the sea trials proved successful, since she was back in regular service a few day later and continues to sail, rounding off the end of the 2016 season. Unfortunately I didn't have my tripod setup with me for this event, so I had to do my best with a hand-held camera... hence a little shakiness. Hopefully that can be forgiven, considering the important occasion documented here.

## Paul R. Tregurtha - Arrival in Duluth - September 2016

Here is the Paul R. Tregurtha arriving in Duluth, Minnesota on September 21, 2016 under stormy skies. You can't easily tell in this video, but the sky was active with lightning bolts. The Algolake had just left the shipping canal before the arrival of the Tregurtha. And while I've seen many ships enter the Duluth harbor before, I've never seen one come in as fast as the Tregurtha did during this arrival. For those that don't already know, the Paul R. Tregurtha is the largest ship that sails the great lakes, measuring in at 1013 feet in length. She is a very frequent visitor to Duluth.

## Edgar B. Speer - Arrival in Duluth - October 2016

The Edgar B. Speer was built in 1980 and is 1004 feet in length. She has a unique self-unloading system that extends out the side from the structure just in front of the bridge. This unique system restricts here to only carrying iron ore pellets for cargo. She is also an infrequent visitor to Duluth. During this visit earlier in October, it appeared she was getting some work done on her left prop... or at least that's the general area I saw work being done when she was docked next to the Port Authority. After a couple of days in port, she then left again to resume her regular cargo hauling. (It appears she didn't bring a cargo to Duluth, nor did she take any cargo on the way out.) Unfortunately, there was no captain's salute for this arrival. Music: Lightless Dawn Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com) Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 3.0

## American Mariner - Arrival in Duluth - October 2016

Here is the 715 foot American Mariner arriving in Duluth, Minnesota just after sunset on October 9, 2016. Had she arrived just a few minutes earlier, she would have been nicely lit by the setting sun, but it was not to be. Still, it was fun to watch her glide into Duluth, not to mention slightly amusing as her horn seemed to run out of "steam" before completing her salute. The bridge responded with an equally short salute in return. Music: Silver Blue Light Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com) Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 3.0

## Cason J. Callaway - Serene Departure from Duluth

Here is the Cason J. Callaway departing Duluth, Minnesota in the late afternoon hours of October 11, 2016. Unlike my other videos, I skipped on the music and just let the natural sounds play throughout the entire video. Since it was such a calm day, I didn't have any of that annoying wind noise on my camera microphone. The video starts with a view of the Callaway just before she crosses under the Blatnik bridge that connects Duluth with Superior (hence the noise of the highway from above). If you look around the 3:55 mark, you'll see the Edward L. Ryerson sitting in long term layup in the background. We then see the Callaway from the south pier as she crosses under the aerial lift bridge and makes her way out into the uncharacteristically calm waters of Lake Superior. If you enjoy this type of video, check out my other videos of lake boats arriving and departing from Duluth on this channel.

## Alpena - Sunday Arrival in Duluth, Hauling Cement

Here is a steamship Alpena arriving in Duluth on June 4, 2017 and passing underneath the aerial lift bridge. The Alpena was built in 1942 and now serves the role of hauling cement across the Great Lakes. She is the oldest bulk carrier currently operating on the Great Lakes and is one of the few steam-powered vessels still remaining.

## Joseph L. Block - Arrival in Duluth - September 2015

Going through my folders of previous videos taken while in Duluth, I found some more ship footage that I decided to upload. Here is the 728 foot Joseph L. Block arriving in Duluth, Minnesota on a grey and windy day, September 17, 2015. The Block has a capacity of 37,200 tons of cargo, powered by two diesel engines with a combined 7000 horsepower.

## Indiana Harbor - Arrival in Duluth - September 2015

Here is more older footage I decided to edit and upload, showing the Indiana Harbor arriving in Duluth on September 15, 2015. She is an even 1000 feet in length and is powered by four 3500HP diesel engines. She doesn't win any awards for her paint job here, but like any ship that is worked hard she proudly displays evidence of the miles she's traveled.

## Cason J. Callaway - Departure from Duluth - September 2015

Here is the Cason J. Callaway captured departing from Duluth on September 17, 2015. I nearly missed getting any footage of this departure, and she was already under the bridge by the time I got my tripod set up and started rolling. (I missed the captain's salute, unfortunately.) But even an abbreviated video of her departure is still worth watching. Music: Skye Cuillin Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com) Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 3.0

## American Courage - Arrival in Duluth - September 2015

Here is another I dug up from my older video files. This is the American Courage arriving in Duluth, Minnesota shortly after midnight on September 16, 2015. The American Courage was built in 1979 and was initially called the Fred R. White Jr. before her name change in 2006. She is 636 feet in length and is powered by two diesel engines with a combined output of 7200 horsepower.

## Presque Isle, HHL Nile, Philip R. Clarke - Three Departures from Duluth - September 2015

On the evening of September 16, 2015, I managed to capture three ships departing from Duluth. It seemed to make the most sense to edit these departures into one video. The featured ships are: Presque Isle - This is a somewhat unique ship among the 1000 footers on the Great Lakes. It's a combination barge and tug. While the barge is loaded and unloaded, the tug can detach to pick up fuel and supplies. HHL Nile - This is one of the Hansa Heavy Lift salt water vessels. She was bringing wind turbine parts to Duluth on this visit. She was built in 2009 and is 453 feet long. Philip R. Clarke - We end with a classic AAA ore carrier, launched in 1951 and commissioned in 1952. She is 767 feet in length.

## Cason J. Callaway and Paul R. Tregurtha - Arrival and Departure from Duluth - September 2015

Here we see the arrival of the Cason J. Callaway and the departure of the Paul R. Tregurtha as seen from Canal Park in Duluth, Minnesota. Both ships are frequent visitors to Duluth, but it's nice to see them together, contrasting 1950s technology with 1980s technology.

## Walter J. McCarthy Jr. - Departure From Duluth - September 2015

Here is the Walter J. McCarthy Jr. departing from Duluth, Minnesota on September 19, 2015. She is 1000 feet in length and typically hauls coal as her main cargo, but will sometimes haul limestone or grain. This departure marked her first voyage after several months in lay-up, supposedly due to some problems with her self-unloading system (though I can't confirm that for certain). She also could have simply been in lay-up due to a low demand for cargo carrying at the time. The McCarthy probably won't win any awards for beauty, but seeing her in action is still a beautiful thing.

## Joseph L. Block - Departure from Duluth - September 2015

Here is the Joseph L. Block departing Duluth, Minnesota on the morning of September 19, 2015. Check out an earlier posted video on this channel to see her arrival in Duluth two days previously. Music: Double Drift Kevin MacLeod (incompetech.com) Licensed under Creative Commons: By Attribution 3.0

## Hon. James L. Oberstar - Departure from Duluth - September 2015

Here we have the Hon. James L. Oberstar departing Duluth on September 18, 2015. She had dropped off her cargo in Duluth, then made her way to Two Harbors to pick up a load of iron ore... hence that's why she is floating fairly high in the water here. I've always considered the Oberstar to be one of the prettier boats on the Great Lakes. But then I again, I like most of the classic freighters, especially the ones that wear the color scheme of the Interlake Shipping Company.
