its called "tripping" the tug boat was tripped for some reason. the barge CANNOT go past the tugboat cuz this will happen. maybe the tug lost power while traveling at a steady speed. this applies to regualr boats as well the same thing can happen.
@roley33 I noticed only one of the twin screws was turning as it capsized so my guess is one engine lost power and it didnt have enough to keep the towline tight and prevent the barge from overtaking the tug
yup there called narrows for a reason....why i have odds on where some of the tugs passing infront of my house if they go seachelt inlet or salish sea way lol most are salish, must be fun for the gravel pit tugs comin outta seachelt too lol
@eJaCuLaT0rZ only one was screaming,, if you notice only one prop was turning as it capsized and since there was no longer any water resistance , naturally the prop began spinning faster and the shaft bearings began to burn, then the packing in the stuffing box, and my guess is thats where the smoke is coming from
Demshitz are dipshits. What kind of sad pathetic people would choose to film for profit rather than go help people in trouble. At least 1 of you has some integrity and courage.
Dave's a hero, he actually helped... It's sad no one else did? Just want the money for the tape... It's really sad to know people would let someone die when they have boats and the means to help.... I'm assumeing you had more than one yak, according to what you said. When God asks you why you didn't help? Just say I was running the camera and didn't care about anything except money.... I hope it was worth it..
The tug boat driver had a real issue with the current...Maybe he should have cut power and righted the boat. Those barges are a lot of mass to turn at that speed.
@highvelocity123 true that i work on a tug located in sechelt and went to eggmont to do a job even at high tide the chuck moves fast the slightest wrong turn and ur done in there
@adamswindells1 Diesels will run on their own engien oil. When the engine goes upsidedown, oil runs from the valve cover, through a breather hose, into the intake and the engine just runs away until it blows up, siezes up, or whatever.
We should be in our Kayaks dude. No, you should already be in them paddling out to rescue the people. shame on you. You had your chance to be a hero and you blew it. Lame!

People could be dying, but just wanted to let you know my buddy has the carbonlite 2000 kayak, the acme kevlar vest, and i apparently have no soul....
I think Demshitz should be DIPSHITS for just watching like a weak, ball-less, pussy of a man! Shame on you! Get out there and do something! Reach down, find your family pride and think of someone other than yourself! That goes for YOU too!!
Beter a Kayak then the beach you fucking prick Lazyboi ya i agery with you Covey at leest one of them is worth prase but the one's that just sat on the beach fuck them.
I don't think the tug was sinking. I think the captain was trying to repoint the barge but it had too much momentum going and the higher cleat on the barge pulled on the lower bollard on the tug and just rolled it right over.
Notice how watertight the tug was AFTER it rolled over.
I think you guys just staged this so you could spam youtube with yer paddlin boat plugs. How damn low will some people, and boats, sink? I still think Gordon Lightfoot wrote the song before the boat sank.
1st fucktard: "We should get in our kayaks maybe dude."
2nd fucktard: "Yeah we might have to save these fucks!"
REALLY?! You two are completely fucking worthless. As fellow mariners you have a duty to help those in distress, not stand by and make stupid fucking comments. I hope a tugboat runs your sorry asses over and the crew puts the video of it on Youtube. See you on the water.

Holy crap, I was out fishing when this happened, we heard the emergency call. Shit and damn, we were SO relieved when the guy got out safe. This is fucking nuts to see it on video.
Uuuuhhhhhh, should we save them yea probably, could we use our kayaks? I font know could we? Maybe... You try it...I don't know... 30min later, I guess I could help... O he drowned my bad...
The strength of poly lines is crazy (assuming that's a poly line not a wire).... That boat completly had to roll for that line to part I'm glad I work on a steady river
stupid captain should of pressed the winch release button.he was up on top of the wheel house why didn't he press the button to release the winch line?
Nice work there Dave, your a super hero, and as a proffesional mariner when i see those little kayaks i'll always remember this incident. good on you buddy.
The Thomas Hebert didn't trip, it got pulled under stern first. Something caught the wire and and pulled it right down. I talked to one of the men that survived it. None the less its a horrible feeling being trip! Trying to climb out of just you bunk is harder then you'd think. Then everything in the boat flying from one side to the other. while water finds its way in, and you trying to find your way out. It's a horrible feeling!
Tug trip it's happens more than you think. A Holly Marine tug out of Chicago had it happen a few years back on Lake Michigan. This is also pretty close to what probably happened to the Thomas Hebert off the NJ coast. I can think of a half dozen others where the tow got away and either rammed the tug or tripped it (Lauren Castle comes to mind). That's why articulated (buldworth, hydracon) tugs are becoming more popular.
several things could off happen ,lost steering,going to fast ,should off had a little more tow line so he could off swung around the barge,the longer the towline the harder to control the barge ,but sometimes you gotta way the odds
thats some scary shit i work on tugs and they can go through hell and back but that was for sure the most fucked up thing i have ever seen way to go dave you just saved those guys lives that was amazing footage
When she fell behind the bow of the barge the wire was pulling her sideways and capsized her. Called "girding" in the trade, an everpresent danger for tugs.

Hey Dave, nice work on the kayak. But please, can you place your watermark somewhere else. Do you CNN putting their watermark across the anchorman's face?
What amazes me is that no one on the barge or tug seem to be wearing lifejackets. If this water is as dangerous as people are saying in the comments, surely lifejackets should have been a must!
i was just reading about this in professional mariner last night. good video. unfortunately this accident could have been prevented if the mate had put out some more wire and not let the barge get too far off to the side of the tug. classic towing tripping the tug scenario, good thing all crew members made it out.
to tell you the truth jlivingston from the opinion of a lifeguard, kayak instructor and experienced boater in these waters(and present the day of the incident) by staying on shore jared allowed for one less person to be in need of saving. and your right dave is NOT a hero those men were not going anywhere and were with their vessel (where the coast guard recommends you stay) and with two larger vessels in a close proximity dave was only risking his life unnecessarily.
I don't even know what to say about Jared, the kid who shot this video. Sadly he represents many people. Fortunately, so does Dave- who, incidentally, isn't a 'hero', he's just a decent human being responding to another human being in need.

You didn't need to risk injury, Jared, you just needed to paddle 100m. Your camera has become an obstacle between you and the world. Put it down and get in the game.
Good thing you manned the video camera instead of going to help rescue! real good on your part. I hope you need help one day and I have a video camera to watch!
I agree with you... OH MY GOD!
forzafreak94 4 weeks ago
I believe the tow line was too short and the tug was maneuvering quite fast, that makes the drifting barge pulled the tug instead....just my opinion.

de bakboord motor gaat op zijn kop zelfs op hol (je hoort hem brullen en roken!)(ongeveer op 60 seconden in de video)
op gegeven moment abrupte stop (drijfstangen zullen wel door het blok zijn geknalt!)

Too fast... the turn radius of the towed vessel was larger, a huge mass pulling the cables and stern sideways.. sad accident..
