Visited the Port of Savannah last month and saw something weird with the tower cranes

I was down in Savannah for a family thing and walked over to check out the port operations. I noticed three of the big tower cranes were working at different speeds on the same type of container load, like one was way slower than the others. Has anyone else seen uneven cycle times across cranes at the same site and figured out what causes it?

Oh wow, that's actually a really good catch. I mean, maybe the slower one had a different operator or was doing a lighter load that needed more careful handling. Or it could be one of those cranes is just older and doesn't have the same speed settings as the newer ones.

Older cranes are just cranky.
