Random Tugs 111

Robert E. McAllister has quickly become my favorite tugboat in the sixth boro.  I know how fickle that sounds . . .  But here, muscling Victorious Ace around under cover of darkness, Robert E. is incomparable.

Of course, Margaret Moran nudging in Carnival Glory is no slouch either.

As many in the sleeping city have eyes closed, not everyone does.  Mary Alice (I think) grabs scows by the pair.

Sarah Dann and scow have invisible bottoms as WTC1 has no top.   I hope to put up some nekkid hull pics soon.   To see nekkid car carrier hulls like Victorious Ace, click here.

Behold Discovery Coast, sleepless in the sixth boro.

Ellen,  . . .  whom I’ve long admired and still do, I’m happy to meet

your sister.   According to this 2004 article, McAllister had at that time converted over a dozen of these.
