lots of fenders, as you don't always get to tie up on the side you want,
a big deal in a single screw trawler. Don't try it singlehanded.

The Hudson is way cool, especially going into NYC

Good to hear that 19.5' is no problem. I've been designing a fireboat
for the city of Baltimore and it will be built on the Great Lakes. We
designed it for a height of 19'8" (19.66'). They have been advised to
go slowlly under the bridges (no bow up trim please!) on the delivery
voyage.
