or Bridge.
Below is a photo I took in October 2011 . . .
Also from October 2011, when the bridge looked like this,
squeezing under the roadbed looked like this, and
the McAllister stern quarter escort looked like this . . .
the mighty Maurania III, that is. Here’s the complete post I did back then.
But five and a half years have elapsed, not without change. So earlier this week, Suez Canal in the KVK and under the Bayonne Bridge looked like this. See the worker above the new roadbed?
See him now?
So this week it was Marjorie B on the stern, and
Ellen forward.
I hope to be around and doing this five and a half years from now to see what there is to see.

Yesterday I mentioned the request to help the Roaring Bull ferry project, and that’s now fully funded. Thank you. Here’s another and more somber request that you might consider, the Captain Joseph Turi Memorial fund.

At first glance I thought photo number two was a close-up of a seagull face staring at the camera.

Thanks for posting the go fund me link. Joe Turi was my deckhand on the Eric R Thornton. I knew him from our days at Bouchard. Ironically he was killed working on this bridge project.
