Monday morning finds Vane Brothers’ Jacksonville anchored on the North River with its barge. Jacksonville, along with the similar Charleston, is one of two Vane ATB 4,200 HP units paired with 50,000 barrel barges based out of New York Harbor alongside numerous conventional tug/barge combinations. A third larger ATB, the Wachapreague, was up here over the summer but is now back down in the Gulf of Mexico. We see these two ATBs anchor on the North River occasionally but they don’t usually travel further upriver and instead I believe they are mainly employed on product deliveries along Long Island Sound. Jacksonville had returned from Port Jefferson over the weekend and Charleston appears to be currently loading cargo at Kinder Morgan on the Arthur Kill after returning from Port Jeff overnight.
