Great shot... very moody with the night lighting and the rain. I can't figure out, though, how big the tug and barge are... and is it a pusher tug? I imagine the barge is single ended? |

When I checked Marinetraffic, it showed the tug's name as Gulf Rival. Both the tug and barge were a bit smaller than I was expecting, but on both sailings to and from Shearwater it was only loaded with one vehicle. It is similar to the tug and barge configuration at Barnston Island but slightly bigger, a single ended barge with the tug tied to the corner. |
