This looks doubly dangerous, as the 1000+ ton crane is not just a big-ass crane, its also on water.
Lets hope for fair weather and good seas. They'll need all the stability that they can get!
This is the Chesapeak 1000, the 1000 ton capacity crane barge that's been conscripted to clean up the bridge debris.
Oooooh super fucking cool. I’ve never been around a barge crane. I know guys that ran big crawlers on barges. Barge work is a whole different ball of wax. You have separate capacity charts to factor how much the barge lists when the crane is loaded. Giant brass balls on the guys doing that shit.
