New twin house arrangement with complex logo on forward/back stacks?
Nah! Just Patapsco assisting Peter F. Gallatly with turn to port while backing off the dock. Note the twin circlers in the sky with one witness.
Peter (94′ x 34′ x 14′ and 4200 hp) was launched three years after Patapsco (96′ x 34′ x 15 and 4200 hp) ; hull 141 to Patapsco’s 124. And the barge is blue-house GCS 238.
Looking at shapes, just basic externals, I’d call Peter F the 16th Vane Brothers vessel of that class.
Two peas
stripe among green. At least for now.
Jed caught this foto even more recently, blue-house GCS 235 moved on the hip by green stripe by Sassafras (90′ x 32′ 13′ and 3000 hp) built at Chesapeake Shipbuilding.
Green with blue and yellow . . . almost like courtship this spring. Foto was taken at the head of Gowanus Bay. Ship in the background was subject of post a month back; foto then also taken by Jed.
All fotos, except the last one by Jed, by Will Van Dorp.
