Tug - LUCINDA SMITH 4-20a.jpg

SOUTHERN STYLE
Up from the south and pushing " two abreast" the Lucinda Smith has empty hopper barges heading for a dredge operation. The Canal dispatcher's don't like this configuration of side by side since it limits the beam of any opposing vessels coming in the opposite direction . Some dispatchers will make a tug made up like this wait until the Canal is clear , before giving permission to enter . Some with two barges will go end to end but that makes for tricky maneuvering if it gets windy. |
