This is a big dredge . The entourage ended up on the Delaware River

Got to wonder if this is to prepare the east coast ports for the expected
super sized ships (neo-Panamax ships) that will use the expanded Panama

There is some deepening going on in the Delaware River were the TEXAS
is now , but even with out that the channel needs constant attention
or it starts to fill back in with mud . It costs a fortune to keep the
rivers dredged throughout the entire country .
