I took this in April; I would never have guessed a Corvette was that much lower than an early 1950s (1952?) Pontiac.
Ditto here: Kristy Ann once rescued a motorboat I happened to be on; from the motorboat, Kristy Ann looked immense. Next to . . . Nicole (I think that’s Nicole Leigh Reinauer. I took the photo more than 10 years ago.), she’s a toy.
Notice the raised lettering on the front of the nearer tug’s wheelhouse? It says Bear. Bear was once all red. Bear, believe it or not, had a fleet mate–Little Bear. See it here.
Today these tugs are called Elizabeth Anna and Sarah Ann. Sarah Ann used to be such a brilliant orange you’d never forget it. Above and below, those photos were taken by Glenn Raymo.

Thanks to Glenn for use of his photo; all others by Will Van Dorp.

Well . . . maybe that makes Elizabeth Anna a Corvette to Sarah Ann’s 1952 Pontiac?

That’s a ’52 Chieftain? I wonder how those engines did in mpg…
