The tractor tug Johnathan C. Moran was working at the Manhattan Cruise Terminal on Tuesday, assisting the relatively small 465-foot cruise ship Le Boreal leaving the piers. Le Boreal called in New York after cruising in Arctic and Canadian waters and is now en route to its southern hemisphere cruising season running trips from Argentina to Antarctica. Thursday morning sees Johnathan C back at work in the harbor, currently escorting a 1,000 foot container ship through the Lower Bay as it heads back to sea. In the photo, the historic 142-year-old Weehawken Water Tower is visible to the left of Le Boreal’s stacks on top of the Bergen Hill.
