Hit 40,000 cubic yards this week, never expected that number

We cleared the 40,000 yard mark on the Mississippi job near Baton Rouge on Wednesday. I've been running dredges for 12 years and my busiest year before this was around 31,000, so this one surprised me. The cutterhead just kept chewing through that soft clay without a single clog, and the discharge line held up the whole time. Anyone else get a yearly total that blew past their old record, and what changed to make it happen?
