As you know from some earlier posts, those red morning skies . . they mark my favorite times.
Here Coral Coast with Cement Transporter 5300 has just departed the dock with Ruby M‘s assistance.
Soon afterward, Sapphire Coast arrived with Cement Transporter 1801, and assisted
by Stephen Dann.
Later in the morning, Sarah Ann pushes scow Michelle D.
Durham moves deck barge Arlene, bound for some work in the East River.
Harry McNeal returns with barge 1962 to IMTT to continue the job there.
Nicole Leigh stands by with RTC 135.
Pathfinder delivers empty garbage containers from the railhead to the marine transfer station.
Charles D. returns from Earle.
And finally, departing IMTT,
Genesis Victory gets an assist from Normandy.

Inside the Genesis Victory pilot house. Love the spiral staircase to crows nest. Imagine being up there in a rough Atlantic storm!

Now that you mention it, Earle is interesting. You’re probably not allowed to take pictures of it. But how many ships a week come in or out to their long jetty? Which tug company has their service?

I don’t know a weekly count of USN or USNS vessels to Earle . . . I’ll bet it’s not regular, but it appears that McAllister has the contract to assist there.

I made a job on the SS President Arthur.The report was to Earle,N.J.When I went into the closest bar,I heard someone say ‘ boy,..they’re really slinging those five hundred pounders aboard now’.’.I picked up my suitcase & went back to the hall.
