Rant: I stopped fighting the current on a tricky bend in the Ohio River last month

Instead of pushing the cutter head straight, I let the flow set the angle and just managed the swing line. Saved us about 4 hours of fighting and a ton of fuel. Anyone have a different trick for working strong cross-currents?

Let the flow set the angle" sounds like my life motto, just with less river and more procrastination.

My buddy Jake had a whole plan to clean his garage last Saturday. He moved one box, then sat on it to check his phone. Three hours later he was deep into a wiki hole about 90s cartoon voice actors. He said the flow took him from sorting old tools to learning which guy did the voice for Skeletor.
