On the Hudson and East Rivers

The SS United States Conservancy sponsored a tug-boat tour of potential docking sites for the vessel -- the last great passenger liner built for high-speed Atlantic crossings. Rendered obsolete by jet airliners, United States is laid up in Philly, looking for a permanent home.
We spent about 3 hours on the water.
