For folks who’ve been watching sixth boro traffic much longer than I have, Lyman must conjure up a sense of ressursction that I don’t have whenever I see the profile. Then called Crusader, she was tripped by her barge and sank just over 30 years ago. I’ve almost always seen her with
barge Sea Shuttle, towing sections of subs. For a spectacular view of this tow in the East River seven years ago click here.
Rockefeller University’s River Campus makes an unusual backdrop here for Foxy 3. See the support structure for the campus being lifted from the River here.
Treasure Coast . . . offhand, do you know the build date?
Carolina Coast,
with sugar barge Jonathan, which you’ve seen some years ago here as Falcon.
Pearl Coast with a cement barge off the Narrows remaking the tow to enter the Upper Bay.
In the rain, it’s Genesis Victory and Scott Turecamo, and their respective barges.
Franklin Reinauer heads out with RTC 28, and heading in it’s
Kimberly Poling with Noelle Cutler.
And let’s stop here with JRT assisting Cosco Faith.
All photos recently by Will Van Dorp, who’s been inland for a week now and sees Shelia Bordelon on AIS at the Stapleton pier this morning. Anyone get photos?

Will, I think the Treasure Coast was built in 2007. She used to tow us on my old barge that year, she was brand new at that time. Good boat with a nice crew,remember that well.
