This is my version of Frost’s “Stopping by Woods on a ...”. Call this “Checking out Docks on a Hazy Morning,” the joy of which is finding the unexpected. Like OSG Vision, here among the giants. The tug just astern Vision’s blue stacks is K-Sea Volunteer, air draft 114′ if my info is correct, making
Vision, docked here in Bayonne, NJ, the highest tug seat I’ve seen in the sixth boro!
Vision looks like a starship, and is as huge as one: 12000 hp!! and 153′ x 51′ x 26.’ Anyone know the air draft?
Find closer-up and clearer fotos of Vision from the fabulous Narragansett Bay Shipping site here, taken about a month ago.
James Turecamo and Zachery Reinauer passed by to
meet and greet (well, that’s interpretation, I know) also. Ships in the distance are: Horizon Discovery (ex-American Liberty, Sea-Land Liberty, Sea-Land Discovery, CSX Discovery… built by Sun Shipbuilding in Chester, PA in 1968) and Wallenius Wilhelmsen Fedora.
