On a day in the sixth boro, you’ll see a lot of working boats that’ve been around a while. These are randomly chosen. Lynx dates from 1967.
Stephen Dann from 1999.
Weddell Sea from 2007 and Lincoln Sea, 2000.
Joyce D. Brown, 2002.
Buchanan 1 . . . is she aka Buchanan 10? If so, 1967.
Marty C, 1981.
Little C, 1988. She looks somewhat similar to Lil Rip.
Pearl Coast, looking huge out of the notch, 1978.

BUCHANAN 1 (ON 512111) indeed dates from 1967, but she’s not the same vessel as BUCHANAN 10 (ON 509787). Both are from the Equitable Equipment Co, but came out for different owners. BUCHANAN 10 (Hull 1483) started life as PETER CALLANANA for Callanana Marine Corp. BUCHANAN 1 (Hull 1492) was originally MICHAEL DORIAN for the New York City Dept. of Transportation. She sailed as BRONX 1, MELANIE B, and HR 5 before earning her present name.

It looks like spell-czech is messing with me again. That’s MICHAEL CALLANAN for Callanan Marine Corp.

The 10 has been laid up at Feeneys for several years at this point.

Curious perspectives here (and great photos). Why is it so hard to find info on Marty C? Not even listed on the Weeks website.
