This series goes way back . . . in fact, the first installment was in 2006 using some photos I took in 2003, on my first trip up the Hudson.
What struck me yesterday as Nord Gainer headed out . . . was how much business was being taken care of on the fly . . .
As she headed out on the ConHook Range–I believe–opposing traffic is winter dragger Eastern Welder.
The docking pilot departs, via James D Moran, and after I’d gotten out ahead, it seemed odd to see the crane pitched over to port until
I caught sight on the vessel alongside her port . . .
the venerable Twin Tube!
Whatever needed to be transferred . . . Twin Tube was there.
Photos by WVD, who’s always surprised by sights in the sixth boro.
Nord Gainer is part of a huge fleet of tankers, some of which I’ve seen in the boro previously.
