Joyce D. Brown with a resplendent paint job on a bright spring morning.
A new boat entering the Narrows in springtime. Know it?
Sea Oak, which I last saw in Southport, NC.
Crystal Cutler, also looking great in the spring sunshine.
The extraordinary Bosco, passing the boscage of Shooters Island.
The vertically oriented Genesis Vision, previously known as Superior Service.
Paul Andrew, once sported a respectable Christmas tree here (scroll).
Another great name . . Sea Fox.
Marjorie B McAllister, perfectly positioned with the arrow on CMA CGM Almaviva,
Rebecca Ann, with a great origin story that maybe someone who reads this knows better than I do. All I remember is that it was locally built . . . with spare steel . . . I hope I’m right about that. And she’s currently involved in a project that might place her in tomorrow’s post. I believe she first appeared in this blog in 2010 here (scroll).
Any guesses?
Answer below.
Yes, Seeley, which was once a Vane Brothers boat called Vane Brothers.

Can you identify these boats? This is a game I sometimes play . . . trying to guess before I can read by my eyes or some device . . .
Do you know the unit headed away?
Here’s that Moran vessel from the first photo of this post.
OK. Did you get Sea Fox? I had guessed Sea Wolf. There is no Sea Coyote. Yet.
I didn’t get this one either.
James D. here had just finished the salt ship job,
along with Margaret . . . and headed back to base to await the next job.
And finally, Turecamo Girls heads out for the next job.

It was a warm but cloudy day . . .
Frances came by, as
did Barry Silverton on a delivery to the Bay State,
Ellen McAllister to meet a ship,
and Elizabeth Anne.
After a lull, there was a burst of traffic again: Sea Fox,
Sea Wolf in a hurry,
and JRT Moran.

A Nordhavn 62 . . . ?? exiting the Erie Canal last weekend. Professional delivery crew?
It was interesting that something they saw on the bulkhead in Waterford prompted them to do a 180 and try to squeeze onto the bulkhead. Was it thoughts of dining on sausage and onions washed down with a Keegan Ale? Port of registry here–Port Colbourne–marks the southern point of the Welland Canal.
At 73′ Sea Fox pulled into Morris Canal recently.
Sutton Island lies just south of Acadia National Park.
Two-Can is a repurposed North Sea fishing trawler . . . at near 90′ and built in Urk in 1968.
I took the photo below of Wanderbird in May 2013, and I don’t know if it’s still for sale, but when I visited Belfast recently there was another
and newer Wanderbird in the yard. I wonder what the story is, and where the black-hulled version now floats.
Top Hat . . . with its own Mount Desert origins . . . I’m not sure how much it’d cost, but it looks like a million dollars.
And bringing this back to the sixth boro . . . Jamaica Bay, an unlikely name it seems, came in the Narrows on Friday.
This 200′ yacht was built in Rendsburg along the Kiel Canal in 2010.
Closing shot . . . Makulu heading for the sound via the East River this week. In the late 90s and early 00s this ketch sailed around the world at least three times as an educational project. It appears now she’s for sale or sold. ??

In the seldom-seen category, let’s start with Pegasus and Delta Fox.
Ditto Vulcan III.
Amy Moran light.
How often do you see Bergen Point pushing a crane barge?
Or Sarah Ann pushing a scow past the Hospital for Special Surgery?
or a stern-on Larry J. Hebert from the Port of LaRose, town of the crossroads?
James William southbound at the Statue as Indy photobombs . . .
and finally . . . first view for me of Sea Fox, ex-Kathleen, Doyle, Cherokee Eagle, Chris B. Boudreaux, Ledger, and Ann L.
