9 a.m. ... Wanderbird coming through the Gate? (Remember… doubleclick enlarges.)
Well, I knew it wasn’t, given all that capacity up forward.
but a little over half an hour later, she wandered in. Wanderbird was built for capacity, too, and from 1963 when the Jaczon family launched her, until 1990, she fished. Here’s a link for another Jaczon beam trawler operating out of Scheveningen (and you should hear me pronounce that town name in my best dialect).
The bridges making up this immediate entry to the Gate are (farther and pink) the Hell Gate Bridge and
the RFK.
Solomon Sea (ex-Brandon Roehrig) with its string of scows led
the way through.
The candy-striped stacks belong to Big Allis
over beyond Roosevelt Island in Ravenswood, Queens.
As I’m seeking to confirm, Wanderbird sips fuel . . . five gallons/hour! Click here and here to see youtube of six-cylinder diesels by the same manufacturer, Industrie.
More on Wanderbird soon.
