Here are my fotos of Sea Lion . . . certainly not 38′ loa, as has been reported. Here she passes Coney Island a few years back and
here she exits the KVK pushing a barge.
I’m very sad to hear of the accident but happy all were rescued.
All fotos by Will Van Dorp.

Look at those open deck level doors! Hopefully it wasn’t as such standard practice in the winter
