In the Lower Bay, NYS Environmental Conservation police confer with NYPD.
Motor Lifeboat 47264 . . . was delivered from this Louisiana shipyard in late July 2000, and
looks brand new.
This Buffalo district survey vessel is barely half year old, and named for
a surveyor with a long career of service all over the watery parts of the globe.
This 45′ response boat medium was delivered to Oswego this year.
Sylvan Beach air boat.
Tappan Zee V . . . I know no more about this vessel–a retired US boat ??–than I did last time I had a photo of her.
Here Oswego Marine One trains in the Oswego River.
All photos by Will Van Dorp.
I will continue to post when I have wifi. And when I’m back home, like this morning, I even have time to comment on the photos I post. These photos were taken between Waterford and Fulton this past week. Notice the family coloration resemblance?
I could comment if I knew more about what I’m seeing, but Tappan Zee V is one I’ve heard about but can find no further info on the internet to corroborate. Notice it presents a different interpretation of NY state colors.
Reliable . . . again, I know she has a twin and has been on the hard for an unspecified period of time . . .
Syracuse is the twin of Reliable, and what I learned about her–other than that she still works–is
here. She’s in her 81st year and was built in the Canal shops in Syracuse. Maybe Reliable was built there too?
And the final photo for now is self-propelled derrick barge Ward’s Island, which–I’m told–began life as a sixth boro harbor ferry serving–you guessed it–Ward’s Island.
I really hope some of you help out with more info about these boats.
