Impossible Repairs

Mike Davidson works with the teams at the enormous Port of Savannah to fix the machines that keep this place running. Boasting multiple massive cargo terminals, an impressive mega-railway system and some of the biggest ship-to-shore cranes on earth, the massive operation relies on its hard hat heroes to keep things running safely and smoothly. Major upgrades are taking the port’s container ship operations to a whole new level, and Mike’s on the team. He works with specialized crews to lift and move three, retired three-million-pound cranes to make room for even bigger ones, while digging in with crew on major repairs to other cranes, vehicles and machines that keep goods flowing. The shipments of essential goods flowing through the port never stops, and neither does the pressure to get these machines back up and running and this port functioning.
