The sixth boro offers many vistas. Enjoy a few, starting with Sarah D towing a deeply loaded scow past Bay Ridge.
At sunrise, Atlantic Salvor and Patrice McAllister head in the same direction for different tasks past Stapleton Heights.
Jonathan C works shipside on the ConHook range in the sixth boro
Julie Anne heads north or so inside the VZ Bridge. I should know what buoys are there, but . . . I don’t.
Sarah D again and here shipside in the KVK.
Mary Turecamo assists alongside a rust-flecked box ship.
Seeley pushes Weeks 250 eastbound in the Kills.
Kirby Moran, Patrice McAllister, and Gregg McAllister assist another box ship, as Marie J Turecamo heads in their direction.
Sea Fox moves a barge past Global terminal in Bayonne.
Navigator rotates clockwise away from St George and heads north.
And finally, Charles James stands by with a scow off Sunset Park.
All photos and any errors, WVD.

Aha, there’s more of that golden hour light! Lovely photos. I have been fascinated with your stories of ships’ name changes. I know there’s at least one with an avian name: Cygnet something. Looking forward to the day one with Heron in its name appears in your borough and on these pages – but not the minesweeper one! Best, Babsje

Oh thanks so much! I remember reading about that nickel ore in that earlier post but must have been asleep at the wheel to miss the name Heron. Thanks.

Beautiful photos. The first three would be lovely oil paintings.
