    Dr Sal.. thank you for the shout out.. I'm Captain Andy's Admin MOD at the MinorcanMullet and we appreciate everything you do!
  • @ngreen1596
    I really appreciate your endorsement of the creators you use for your analyses. Very few YouTube people give proper credit to their sources. Thanks for your integrity.
  • Chief MAKOi, chief engineer on similar sized ships, did a great YouTube video on the NTSB report just on engine room reported facts. Very informative.
  • @chrislowfamily
    It’s OK man. My dad was once told he was misspelling his name when he went to renew his drivers license. He was 75 years old and had been misspelling it all his life. Apparently. Thanks for your expertise, DMV!
  • @ianmac2963
    I have no marine background or experience whatsoever. BUT I really enjoy your videos and those of Chief Makoi ... ... :hand-pink-waving::hand-pink-waving::hand-pink-waving::hand-pink-waving::hand-pink-waving: What I REALLY APPLAUD is your supporting and mentioning other channels ... ... very few Youtubers do that. You're a gentleman ... thank you for your content ... ... :hand-pink-waving::hand-pink-waving::hand-pink-waving::hand-pink-waving::hand-pink-waving:

    You continue to be an excellent example of how the internet rapidly surfaces the most effective reporters - you and your go to guys - have emerged as the top reporters of a black swan event. Your humility and good judgement are a major component of your effectiveness and can’t be schooled into a journalism student. Those qualities arise from life experience and maturity. Sometimes even journalists develop them!😮
  • @warrenjones744
    It is truly amazing how much work they have accomplished. Thanks you Sal.
  • @RNemy509
    Truly a remarkable cleanup/recovery effort. Kudos to their team!
  • @Pamudder
    Thanks again for your excellent update and for giving credit to Capt Andy, Chief Makoi. and SteamGuy.
  • I drove down there today (Sunday) once the sun finally came out. I have a secret spot at TradePoint Atlantic that you can look almost 90 degrees at. It’s still so sad and eerie to go there. I was 10 when the bridge opened, my Uncle worked on it when he was young. He still tells stories about it. Great channel Sal, thanks! 👍😎
  • @Gingerrrrsnapps
    They have already said it’s going to Norfolk after seagirt for repairs.
  • this Baltimore resident thanks you for incredibly clear explainations throughout this process.
  • @jimcarlson2252
    MARCH 26 Dali crashed but is to be refloated and docked by MAY 20! Simply marvelous and in less than 60 days! Thanks Sal for the update. Salvage firms and government agencies involved all get an A+ for effort in my book. Thanks for sharing Sal.
  • @captainrick9379
    Sal, You do a GREAT job!!!!! Thanks for keeping us posted! 👍⚓
  • @MADHIKER777
    I have watched both Steam Man and Chief Makao excellent explanation of the NTSB Prel. Report,thanks to you referring to their channels previously. Also Minocan Mullet has captured the hard work these salvage teams are doing, many times in horrible conditions!
  • @jamesnoland3445
    Hey Sal. I have really been enjoying your channel even before this incident. I also enjoy listening to different accents from around the English speaking world and idiosyncrasies of speech. Love the way you pronounce “forward”. Makes me smile every time you say it. Keep up the amazing work.
  • Thank goodness you have brought back the Lego Globe 🌎.. I’m lost without lines of Longitude & Latitude … plus there is something very reassuring about it being in the background..like the world 🌎 is okay …!
  • @opieshomeshop
    Chief Makoi did a great job on his latest video with the charts he made, helped to follow the ships systems a lot mor easily. I've been subbed to his channel for many years now.
  • I'm impressed by how quickly they are getting this mess cleaned up 😅!!!
