Houma, Long Island Jakobson-built for Texaco, lasted from 1970 until 2017.  

This Frederick E. Bouchard (1975) is now Mary Emma, currently working in the Gulf of Mexico.

This Shannon McAllister, currently in Narragansett Bay, came off the ways in 1991 as Alice Winslow. 

James Turecamo was launched in the Hudson River in Cohoes in 1969,  not far from where she still works.  Stolt Aquamarine, launched 1986, was scrapped at Alang in 2016.

Escort came out of the Jakobson yard in 1983;  the past few years she’s been Northstar Innovator, which I’ve never seen. 

Hunt Girls is another 1983 model;  after a long time on the hard in Tottenville, she recently came out as Henry Girls, which I’ve yet to see as well. 

As a supporter of “long shot” cases, I long thought the 1887 NY Central #13 would make its way back into the water.  Unfortunately she was scrapped in 2017.

And finally, from a decade ago, the still Alice Oldendorff came into town laden with Nova Scotia rock, assisted by Robert E. McAllister, ex-YTB-803, as USCG 25659 cruises past. Alice is now Algoma Verity, a veritable hard-working aggregate hauler now sailing near the Bahamas.
