In mid-December, Haugland Group LLC ’s newest tug Lily Anne came up the North River with a pair of hopper barges, passing the Lucy Reinauer at anchor with the 46,000 barrel tank barge RTC 42. Haugland acquired the 1981-vintage 1,800 HP former Weeks Marine tug earlier this year, adding a fourth tug to their fleet and this was the first time I have seen her on the North River. Lucy Reinauer is older, built in 1973, though like all of Reinauer’s older tugs she has been substantially modified and updated. Monday morning (today) finds Lily up at Haugland’s materials port facility in Tompkins Cove on the Rockland County side of Haverstraw Bay, while Lucy is at Reainauer’s Staten Island base.
