The light blue markings are tugs underway (triangles) or stopped (squares) - MarineTraffic 17.12.20@09:30 |
An anxious moment for the NIKKI-JO-C skipper for certain as a fire truck on a call also waits for a Salisbury bridge to open. |
Like the Wicomico, there are approximately 12,000 miles of navigable waterways used by domestic shipping in the United States, not including the Great Lakes and according to the American Waterway Operators, with 5,500 tugboats and towboats and 31,000 barges hauling anything from dry cargo goods, oil, petroleum products, stone, cement and more. Regardless of the cargo and meandering passageways, these versatile little ships just keep motoring along doing what's required to keep the American economy going and it's people working. Keep up the Good Work boys & girls!!.
