Bostonian

Tug BOSTONIAN alongside at A&P waiting to pick up one of the Cory barges.
Also the last of the current batch of 3 barges awaiting the "off" at A&P.
Presumably to be towed by BOSTONIAN.
Difficult to get a decent photo of either of these due to buildings and foliage being in the way.

She had a poorly tum, so the Barge went with the GPS CAMBRIA instead.

Great shots of her, Dennis.
What's that port of registration on her stern ... looks like a mixture of Hull and Boston?

It's Hulon, capital of Hullonia, and she's under the Hulonese flag.
