San Diego Tugs 2 and More

Before the wake dissipates, let me catch up with a few more photos from San Diego.  Darya Anita has moved on up the coast and is now off Washington state.  eWolf remains in San Diego and has a mission.

Pacific Tugboat Group has a large and varied fleet in port.

 

It’s Sammy G and Cadet here.

Haida and Aquijo are outstanding here as non-workboats, although for their crews, that’s not true.

 

San Diego had a large number of research vessel in port, like WHOI‘s Atlantis.

Scripps operates Atlantis‘ sister vessel Roger Revelle.

NOAA vessels there included Rueben Lasker and 

Bell M. Shimada.  Lasker was built on the Great Lakes; Shimada in Mississippi.

Coco is NCT Offshore’s version of a Swiss Army knife.

Acoustic Explorer is involved in USN research. 

Also in port and not gray were the French Pourquoi Pas ? and

the British Armada 78 07. 

Yes, a whole lot of gray was in port.  Maybe that’s fodder for another post.

All photos, any errors, WVD, who’s left California behind for now, heading north and then east.

Unrelated:  To understand what likely happened in Baltimore, watch this 6-minute video  from Sal, up just a couple hours after the incident:  as a friend wrote, Sal is the best.

Today’s post:  For the next few weeks, I’ll follow a planned, circuitous route back home to the sixth boro from the Pacific side by car and train.  Some posts with photos from the sixth boro are in the hopper controlled by the robots in Tugster tower ready to post if WiFi and time fail me.  If you want to follow along, I’m posting mostly photos because–given limited time– the more text,  the fewer postings.  Thanks for following along if you so choose.  You’ll be able to figure out most of the photos, I’ll assume.  See the tags for help.  I’m starting in San Diego, then planning to zigzag across the country using Amtrak and rental car.

This post has a FEW of the 250+ photos from days 1 and 2.
