Random Tugs 112

Random . . .  all fotos taken in the past week, and  . . .  let’s start with a tugboat that’s NOT mostly painted white, the 1958 Thornton Bros.  This foto, courtesy of William Hyman, also shows the color of foliage on the New Jersey bluff across from upper midtown.

2000 Brooklyn, which also has had a long list of previous names.

1979 Margaret Moran

2002 Gramma Lee T Moran

1974 BF Jersey

1966 Gulf Dawn

1979 Patrick J Hunt

And some fotos of vessels operating by night.  ..  1983 Escort

1969 Robert E McAllister

1976 Atlantic Salvor.    Notice the tallest building in the distance . . . that’s WTC1.  Eleven months ago, I took these fotos of Salvor steaming int the sixth boro with segments of the antenna that are now assembled and in place atop the tower.

And once again, the green 1958 tug that started out this post.

Thanks to William for the first foto;  all others by Will Van Dorp.
